Commands from the Bible

Draw nigh to God

James 4:8  

Come near to God and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded.

Eat own bread in quietness

2 Thessalonians 3:12  

Such people we command and urge in the Lord Jesus Christ to settle down and earn the bread they eat.

Earnestly contend for faith

Jude 1:3  

Dear friends, although I was very eager to write to you about the salvation we share, I felt I had to write and urge you to contend for the faith that was once for all entrusted to the saints.

Edify selves with singing

Ephesians 5:19  

Speak to one another with psalms, hymns and spiritual songs. Sing and make music in your heart to the Lord,

Edify one another

1 Thessalonians 5:11

Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.

Enter straight gate

Matthew 7:13  

“Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it.

Luke 13:24  

“Make every effort to enter through the narrow door, because many, I tell you, will try to enter and will not be able to.

Examine self as to faith

2 Corinthians 13:5  

Examine yourselves to see whether you are in the faith; test yourselves. Do you not realize that Christ Jesus is in you—unless, of course, you fail the test?

Exercise in godliness

1 Timothy 4:7-8 

7 Have nothing to do with godless myths and old wives’ tales; rather, train yourself to be godly.

8 For physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things, holding promise for both the present life and the life to come.
