What is commonly known as the "love chapter" in Corinthians. I don't remember exactly which one it is (I Cor. 13 ?) It talks about love being gentle and kind, never boastful or proud. Love always rejoices when truth wins out. I love that!

The Gospel acording to St. Matthew chapter 28, verse 19:
"Go therefore & make disciples of all the nations, Baptizing them in the Name Of the Father, & Of the Son, & Of the Holy Spirit."
What this Scripture is saying is that the Messiah is for the whole world, not just for Israel, & is also saying that God Is for the whole world, not just the children of Abraham, & that God Is Father, Son, & Holy Spirit.

I have a few that really make me who I am. John 13:34 says, "I give you a new command: Love each other. You must love each other as I have loved you." After I learned this scripture, I began to treat all people with love and compassion - even those who displayed hate toward me or my beliefs. I also love Jeremiah 29:11-13. "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." John 3:16 is, of course, my favorite. I shouldn't have to write that one - most Christians know it by heart.

the first scripture i read in the bible:
"'sure i come quickly.' amen, even so Lord Jesus, come."
(from the last chapter in the book of Revelation)
also, perennial favorite:
"be not deceived, God is not mocked. for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap"
(I think that's in Hebrews.. sorry don't have a bible handy!)
next.. from 31 Jeremiah:
"for I know the thoughts I think toward you, thoughts of good and not of evil, to give you a hope and a future"

buddha Kalama Sutta
It is proper for you, Kalamas [the people of the villiage of Kesaputta], to doubt, to be uncertain; uncertainty has arisen in you about what is doubtful. Come, Kalamas. Do not go upon what has been acquired by repeated hearing; nor upon tradition; nor upon rumor; nor upon what is in a scripture; nor upon surmise; nor upon an axiom; nor upon specious reasoning; nor upon a bias towards a notion that has been pondered over; nor upon another's seeming ability; nor upon the consideration, 'The monk is our teacher.' Kalamas, when you yourselves know: 'These things are bad; these things are blameable; these things are censured by the wise; undertaken and observed, these things lead to harm and ill, abandon them.
"...Do not accept anything by mere tradition... Do not accept anything just because it accords with your scriptures... Do not accept anything merely because it agrees with your pre-conceived notions... But when you know for yourselves—these things are moral, these things are blameless, these things are praised by the wise, these things, when performed and undertaken, conduce to well-being and happiness—then do you live acting accordingly."

Psalms 137:8-9
8 O Daughter of Babylon, doomed to destruction, happy is he who repays you for what you have done to us-- 9 he who seizes your infants and dashes them against the rocks.

1 Corinthians 13:4-13:7
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts,always hopes always preserves.
I try to remember that day to day

And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof (Rev 21:23).
King of kings and Lord of lords (Rev. 19:16).
