Most inspiring verse - fellow Christians?

Question

What is the most inspiring verse or series of verses in the Bible to you?

Interestingly, those of you who are not Christian who answer this sarcastically or ignore my request for fellow Christians to answer, you are under conviction of the Holy Spirit. It is the only way for the devil to try to repel the Lord. You have my prayers.

Answer 1

I'm not really one for remembering the exact passage.. but i love the words from Christ before his ascension..

"I will never leave you, nor forsake you.."

That gets me through the day most of the time. Knowing that he is still here, and that i can always feel his presence.

Answer 2

John 3:16

Answer 3

"Do you understand what I have done for you? You call me 'Teacher' and 'Lord,' and rightly so, for that is what I am. Now that I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another's feet.I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you. I tell you the truth, no servant is greater than his master, nor is a messenger greater than the one who sent him. Now that you know these things, you will be blessed if you do them. (John 13:12-17)

(BTW, nobody at YA has the right to insist that anyone else may not answer; and I personally have my doubts the Lord will interfere with YA's terms of service - he has a universe to concern himself with, and other much more important things to worry about than who posts on a message board.)

Answer 4

Many. The one that was the most helpful to me during my many years of battling anxiety, and is just inspiring in general is 2 Timothy 1:7 "For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind."

Answer 5

For me it's Romans 5:1-5.

Answer 6

Christianity? Jesus? Dying?

What is the Imacculate Conception supposed to mean?

(NOT A VIRGIN BIRTH! - betcha never knew that.)

Jesus, the basis of Christianity? .

If Jesus died, he could NOT have been God.

Gods do not die? Do they?

If Jesus 'died' on Friday and 'undied' on Sunday, what else besides Saturday was sacrificed?

Did Jesus give up Saturday for us? Big deal!

If Jesus died for our sins, there should not be any more sins, else why go through with it?.

If Jesus really DIED, he should be dead, dead, dead!

If you swallow this stuff, you are not going to like the folks who don't. You want them to swallow it too.

'Believers' want everyone to convert to their non-thinking.

Believing and not thinking is like choosing a mental illness.

Answer 7

Psalms
Chapter 91
1
You who dwell in the shelter of the Most High, who abide in the shadow of the Almighty,
2
Say to the LORD, "My refuge and fortress, my God in whom I trust."
3
God will rescue you from the fowler's snare, from the destroying plague,
4
Will shelter you with pinions, spread wings that you may take refuge; God's faithfulness is a protecting shield.
5
You shall not fear the terror of the night nor the arrow that flies by day,
6
Nor the pestilence that roams in darkness, nor the plague that ravages at noon.
7
Though a thousand fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, near you it shall not come.
8
You need simply watch; the punishment of the wicked you will see.
9
You have the LORD for your refuge; you have made the Most High your stronghold.
10
No evil shall befall you, no affliction come near your tent.
11
For God commands the angels to guard you in all your ways.
12
With their hands they shall support you, lest you strike your foot against a stone.
13
You shall tread upon the asp and the viper, trample the lion and the dragon.
14
Whoever clings to me I will deliver; whoever knows my name I will set on high.
15
All who call upon me I will answer; I will be with them in distress; I will deliver them and give them honor.
16
With length of days I will satisfy them and show them my saving power

Answer 8

Isaiah 40:31

But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings of eagles. They shall run and not grow weary. They shall walk and not faint.

Answer 9

There are a lot...lol. My all time favorite, though, is Ps. 103:1-5. If you take the time to read it carefully, it really makes sense.
Also in Mattew ...erm....something....Jesus talks about rest to the weary. He says that those who take up his yoke(his teachings) as his own will be blessed, and those who are weary in spirit will recieve rest.

Also, look at the Beatitudes(matthew something again!)lol.

Answer 10

ah so many to choose from...

(Deuteronomy 22:28-29 NAB)
If a man is caught in the act of raping a young woman who is not engaged, he must pay fifty pieces of silver to her father. Then he must marry the young woman because he violated her, and he will never be allowed to divorce her.

What kind of lunatic would make a rape victim marry her attacker? Answer: God.

(Exodus 21:7-11 NLT)
When a man sells his daughter as a slave, she will not be freed at the end of six years as the men are. If she does not please the man who bought her, he may allow her to be bought back again. But he is not allowed to sell her to foreigners, since he is the one who broke the contract with her. And if the slave girl's owner arranges for her to marry his son, he may no longer treat her as a slave girl, but he must treat her as his daughter. If he himself marries her and then takes another wife, he may not reduce her food or clothing or fail to sleep with her as his wife. If he fails in any of these three ways, she may leave as a free woman without making any payment. (Exodus 21:7-11 NLT)

If a man still prophesies, his parents, father and mother, shall say to him, "You shall not live, because you have spoken a lie in the name of the Lord." When he prophesies, his parents, father and mother, shall thrust him through. (Zechariah 13:3 NAB)

"Go up, my warriors, against the land of Merathaim and against the people of Pekod. Yes, march against Babylon, the land of rebels, a land that I will judge! Pursue, kill, and completely destroy them, as I have commanded you," says the LORD. "Let the battle cry be heard in the land, a shout of great destruction". (Jeremiah 50:21-22 NLT)



ah that feels better....I feel so MUCH LOVE!!!
