Favorite Quotes from Lord Jesus alone

[Still_Waters]

I just wanted to start a thread with favorite quotes from Lord Jesus and Lord Jesus alone. I will start with priorities.

1. "Seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness (right-use-ness) and all other things shall be added unto you." (Matthew 6:33)

2. "The kingdom of God is within". (Luke 17:20)

3. "The kingdom of God is here now". (Luke 17:21)

I realize that translations may vary in the different versions of the Bible, so feel free to use whichever translation resonates most with you.

[Still_Waters]

"....for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him." (Matthew 6:8)

(The implications are awesomely illuminating.)

[Still_Waters]

"Judge not lest ye be judged." (Matthew 7:1)

"He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.” (John 8:7)

I went hunting and this 'rung' right:

"do not let your hearts be troubled - trust in God, trust also in me." (john 14:1)

It's interesting that you should mention that one, as my next post was going to be something along those same lines. It was a bit long but, since you brought it up, I'm going to post it anyway from Matthew.

Do Not Be Anxious

25 “Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? 26 Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? 27 And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life?[a] 28 And why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin, 29 yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. 30 But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is alive and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? 31 Therefore do not be anxious, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32 For the Gentiles seek after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. 33 But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.

34 “Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.

It seems that we're all on the same page with "Do not worry" or "Don't be anxious" or don't be "troubled".

It's good to hear from you, as always.

[theophilus]

Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’
Matthew 7:21-23 ESV
