Matthew 18:15 Moreover if thy brother shall trespass against thee, go and tell him his fault between thee and him alone: if he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother.18:16 But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.18:17 And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell it unto the church: but if he neglect to hear the church, let him be unto thee as an heathen man and a publican.

There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich. But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastiseme...nt of our peace was upon him; & with his stripes we are healed. Now therefore hearken unto me, O ye children: for blessed are they that keep my ways. Hear instruction, & be wise, & refuse it not. Blessed is the man that heareth me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors. For whoso findeth me findeth life, & shall obtain favour of the Lord. The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever. Psalms See more

..in the last days perilous times shall come..men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away..of this sort are they which creep into hou...ses, & lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, ever learning, & never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. Now as Jannes & Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith. But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as theirs also was. But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, charity, patience, persecutions, afflictions. See more

Proverbs 13:20 He that walketh with wise men shall be wise: but a companion of fools shall be destroyed.

2 Corinthians 6:14-7:1 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unvelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness? And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my peo...ple. Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you, And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty. Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God. See more

Behold I am the Lord, the God of all flesh, is anything too hard for me? Jere 32:27

Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous: not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise blessing; knowing that ye are thereunto called, that ye should inherit a blessing. For he that will love life, & see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, & his lips that they speak no guile: let him eschew evil, & do good; let him seek peace, & ensue it. For the eyes of the Lord are over... the righteous, & his ears are open unto their prayers: but the face of the Lord is against them that do evil. & who is he that will harm you, if ye be followers of that which is good? But & if ye suffer for righteousness' sake, happy are ye: & be not afraid of their terror, neither be troubled; but sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: & be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness & fear: having a good conscience; that, whereas they speak evil of you, as of evildoers, they may be ashamed that falsely accuse your good conversation in Christ. For it is better, if the will of God be so, that ye suffer for well-doing, than for evil-doing. For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit-1 Pet 3:8-18. See more

He shall feed his flock like a shepherd: he shall gather the lambs with his arm, & carry them in his bosom, & shall gently lead those that are with young. Who hath measured the waters in the hollow of his hand, & meted out heaven with the span, & comprehended the dust of the earth in a measure, & weighed the mountains in scales, & the hills in a balance? Who hath directed the Spirit of the Lord, or being his counseller hath taught him? With whom took he counsel, & who instruc...ted him? With whom took he counsel, & who instructed him, & taught him in the path of judgment, & taught him knowledge, & shewed to him the way of understanding? Behold, the nations are as a drop of a bucket, & are counted as the small dust of the balance: behold, he taketh up the isles as a very little thing. & Lebanon is not sufficient to burn, nor the beasts thereof sufficient for a burnt offering. All nations before him are as nothing; & they are counted to him less than nothing, & vanity. To whom then will ye liken God? or what likeness will ye compare unto him? The workman melteth a graven image, & the goldsmith spreadeth it over with gold, & casteth silver chains. He that is so impoverished that he hath no oblation chooseth a tree that will not rot; he seeketh unto him a cunning workman to prepare a graven image, that shall not be moved. Have ye not known? have ye not heard? hath it not been told you from the beginning? have ye not understood from the foundations of the earth?-Isaiah 40:11. See more

In the arms of God: And whosoever liveth & believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?-John 11:26. We don't like to say good-bye to those whom we love. Whether it be at a school or a cemetery, separation is tough. It is right for us to weep, but there is no need for us to despair. They had pain here. They have no pain there. They struggled here. They have no struggles there. You & I might wonder why God took them home. But they don't. They understand. They are, at this very moment, at peace in the presence of God...when it is cold on earth, we can take comfort in knowing that our loved ones are in the warm arms of God. & when Christ comes, we will hold them, too.

He that walketh with wise men shall be wise; but a companion of fools shall be destroyed-Prov 13:20. The Bible teaches clearly that we are spiritual beings in a spiritual world, much more than the physical. Many ppl don't believe in the devil, unclean spirits, or devils..which is y most saved ppl r under their influence & oppression; while many, if not most, lost ppl r possessed by them. Would to God ye could bear with me a little in my folly: & indeed bear with me. For I am... jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ. But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtility, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ-2 Cor 11:1-3. The Spirit of Christ, Who is Holy & Love, was here in Paul moving Him to pen His admonition & warning to us. The devil, & his vast army of devils, are going to contantly be coming at us to take like 99% truth w 1% error to spiritually rape us & cause us to commit spiritual adultery against Christ as believers. When we were gloriously born again, we were married to Jesus, The Bridegroom, or husband; & we immediately became His Bride, The Church. Jesus tells us here thru Paul that He is jealous over us, that He won't put up with our spiritual adultery, and that He's afraid that we won't listen to Him causing us to be raped, stolen from, violated, defrauded, abused, emotionally destraught, & ruined. Wherefore come out from among them, & be ye separate, saith the Lord, & touch not the unclean thing; & I will receive you, & will be a Father unto you, & ye shall be my sons & daughters, saith the Lord Almighty. Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh & spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God-2 Cor 6:17-7:1. No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, & love the other; or he will hold to the one, & despise the other. Ye cannot serve God & mammon-Matt 6:24. All saved souls choose their master by where they put their lusts, desires, worship, appetites, & life. If they rn't purposefully sacrificed to Christ at the altar of love by the continual feasting of God's Holy Word, and anointed by prayer & worship n Jesus' presence thru desire, then they r given freely by the believer to satan (Jms 1:13-27). So, from our opening verse, we can clearly deduce that if we have "friends, aquaintances, family, business partners" who don't love Jesus as much or more than we do, then there is an unholy spirit working in their life, & when we choose them to be n our life on purpose..we are choosing to let the devil and his forces into our lives, in grt deception believing we can handle it, and only 4 things are going to happen w those our free will choices-Jn 10:10, 1 Pet 5:8. U surely r loved by Jesus thru me beyond knowing. See more

Great peace have they which love thy law: & nothing shall offend them-Ps 119:165.

Come unto me, all ye that labour & are heavy laden, & I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, & learn of me; for I am meek & lowly in heart: & ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, & my burden is light-Matt 11:28.
