Obedience
John 14:15-24
15 “If you love me, you will obey what I command.
16 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another
Counselor to be with you forever—
17 the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because
it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and
will be in you.
18 I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you.
19 Before long, the world will not see me anymore, but you
will see me. Because I live, you also will live.
20 On that day you will realize that I am in my Father, and
you are in me, and I am in you.
21 Whoever has my commands and obeys them, he is the one who
loves me. He who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I too will love him
and show myself to him.”
22 Then Judas (not Judas Iscariot) said, “But, Lord, why do
you intend to show yourself to us and not to the world?”
23 Jesus replied, “If anyone loves me, he will obey my
teaching. My Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home
with him.
24 He who does not love me will not obey my teaching. These
words you hear are not my own; they belong to the Father who sent me.
Acts 5:29
Peter and the other apostles replied: “We must obey God
rather than men!
Overcoming
John 16:33
“I have told you these things, so that in me you may
have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have
overcome the world.”
Patience
Hebrews 10:36
You need to persevere so that when you have done the will
of God, you will receive what he has promised.
Peacefulness
John 14:27
Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not
give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not
be afraid.
Romans 12:18
If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live
at peace with everyone.
