200 Miscellaneous Commands from the Bible


   (194 to 200 out of 200)

194

Wives, submit to husbands

Ephesians 5:22  

Wives, submit to your husbands as to the Lord.

Colossians 3:18  

Wives, submit to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord.

1 Peter 3:1-6  

1 Wives, in the same way be submissive to your husband’s so that, if any of them do not believe the word, they may be won over without words by the behavior of their wives,

2 when they see the purity and reverence of your lives.

3 Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as braided hair and the wearing of gold jewelry and fine clothes.

4 Instead, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God's sight.

5 For this is the way the holy women of the past who put their hope in God used to make themselves beautiful. They were submissive to their own husbands,

6 like Sarah, who obeyed Abraham and called him her master. You are her daughters if you do what is right and do not give way to fear.

            195

Work with own hands

1 Thessalonians 4:11  

Make it your ambition to lead a quiet life, to mind your own business and to work with your hands, just as we told you,

            196

Work or do not

2 Thessalonians 3:10-11  

10 For even when we were with you, we gave you this rule: “If a man will not work, he shall not eat.”

11 We hear that some among you are idle. They are not busy; they are busybodies.

            197

Work out own salvation

Philippians 2:12  

Therefore, my dear friends, as you have always obeyed—not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence—continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling,

            198

Yield not members to sin

Romans 6:13

            199

Yield self to God

Romans 6:13  

Do not offer the parts of your body to sin, as instruments of wickedness, but rather offer yourselves to God, as those who have been brought from death to life; and offer the parts of your body to him as instruments of righteousness.

            200
