What is your favorite scripture?

Question

and why?

Answer 1

Ezekiel 23:20

There she lusted after her lovers, whose genitals were like those of donkeys and whose emission was like that of horses.

Sexy. Nuff said.

Answer 2

My favorite scripture is Psalm 37:4-8. I think it says it all. I also like John 3:16, because it truly shows how much love my God has for me.

Answer 3

Now the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.
"And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free."
2 Corinthians 3:17; John 8:32.

Because the Lord, release me totally by His Spirit and fill me with divine peace that surpasses all understanding. Master, take control of all my thoughts, my body and soul totally. Letting His Spirit reign supreme. I thank The Lord for the total deliverance that He have given me. I praise Him and give Him all the glory and honour.

I am Free (I believe I can fly)

Answer 4

1st Kings 18:27

And so it was, at noon, that Elijah mocked them and said, “Cry aloud, for he is a god; either he is meditating, or he is busy, or he is on a journey, or perhaps he is sleeping and must be awakened.” 28 So they cried aloud, and cut themselves, as was their custom, with knives and lances, until the blood gushed out on them. 29 And when midday was past, they prophesied until the time of the offering of the evening sacrifice. But there was no voice; no one answered, no one paid attention.
30 Then Elijah said to all the people, “Come near to me.” So all the people came near to him. And he repaired the altar of the LORD that was broken down. 31 And Elijah took twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, to whom the word of the LORD had come, saying, “Israel shall be your name.”[b] 32 Then with the stones he built an altar in the name of the LORD; and he made a trench around the altar large enough to hold two seahs of seed. 33 And he put the wood in order, cut the bull in pieces, and laid it on the wood, and said, “Fill four waterpots with water, and pour it on the burnt sacrifice and on the wood.” 34 Then he said, “Do it a second time,” and they did it a second time; and he said, “Do it a third time,” and they did it a third time. 35 So the water ran all around the altar; and he also filled the trench with water.
36 And it came to pass, at the time of the offering of the evening sacrifice, that Elijah the prophet came near and said, “LORD God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, let it be known this day that You are God in Israel and I am Your servant, and that I have done all these things at Your word. 37 Hear me, O LORD, hear me, that this people may know that You are the LORD God, and that You have turned their hearts back to You again.”
38 Then the fire of the LORD fell and consumed the burnt sacrifice, and the wood and the stones and the dust, and it licked up the water that was in the trench. 39 Now when all the people saw it, they fell on their faces; and they said, “The LORD, He is God! The LORD, He is God!”


I really like this scripture because it showed me that people can TRY and prove that their god is real but there is only one God! Its intresting how God answered: by fire. Because fire consumes, refines, and purifies. Exactly what God does to us. My pastor preached out of this sermon and there was complete revelation. Like the fact that they were in the middle of a drought when Elijah asked the people 3 times for water. God came down in the middle of their sacrifice.

Answer 5

Exodus 21:22-23
22"Now suppose two people are fighting, and in the process, they hurt a pregnant woman so her child is born prematurely. If no further harm results, then the person responsible must pay damages in the amount the woman's husband demands and the judges approve. 23But if any harm results, then the offender must be punished according to the injury. If the result is death, the offender must be executed.

Sick!

Answer 6

Psalm 56:3
Luke 12:34

Both pretty awesome for everyday life...check them out

Answer 7

Isaiah 26:19 "Your dead ones will live. A corpse of mine—they will rise up. Awake and cry out joyfully, you residents in the dust! For your dew is as the dew of mallows, and the earth itself will let even those impotent in death drop in birth.”

Most of us have lost someone dear to us to death. Wouldn't it be wonderful to see them again. This scripture is just one of many that shows that many who have died will walk this earth again.

Answer 8

Jeremiah 29:11 because it always provides me strength when I need it most because I remember that even though I have no idea what God may be doing he does know and he has a plan for my life.

Answer 9

Matthew 7:7-8: "Ask, and it shall be given you."
is one of my faves, because it is so BOGUS it proves what a crock organized religion is. How many desperate, frightened, truly Christian broken-hearted parents have watched their children die while begging God to help? I guess He was busy.

Answer 10

Yoga Vasistha. It's a truly inspired account of our perception of reality.
