It is not for him to pride himself who loveth his own country, but rather for him who loveth the whole world. The earth is but one country, and mankind its citizens.
Religion is the chief foundation of Love and Unity and the cause of Oneness. If a religion become the cause of hatred and disharmony, it would be better that it should not exist. To be without such a religion is better than to be with it.

I love all of the scriptures (even the ones that step on my toes and cause me to say "OUCH!! HALLELUJAH!!") It all blesses me and gives me the desire to have a closer walk with God.
But my favorite verse - obviously Romans 8:28! "For all things happen to the good of those who love God and are called according to His purpose."
When I first realized that believing wasn't enough - I had to develop a relationship with God, He revealed that I needed to work on my attitude towards others. (Because of the environment I was raised in, I had a very dominant / controlling personality up until a few years ago - and yes - I still struggle with that sometimes.) He led me to the book of James, I suppose because it deals so much with the tongue! So I go back to that book on a pretty regular basis. I also refer to Proverbs a lot, and pray the Psalms.
dd - The Christian's goal is to know GOD and DENY self!

There are sooooo many, but these seem highly appropriate for this venue!! Continue to shine / represent........
But foolish and unlearned questions avoid knowing that they do gender strifes. 2 Timothy 2:23
2 Timothy 3:16 Everything in the Scriptures is God's Word. All of it is useful for teaching and helping people and for correcting them and showing them how to live. (CEV)
John 5:38-40 It's the work the Father gave me to complete. These very tasks, as I go about completing them, confirm that the Father, in fact, sent me. The Father who sent me, confirmed me. And you missed it. You never heard his voice, you never saw his appearance. There is nothing left in your memory of his Message because you do not take his Messenger seriously.
You have your heads in your Bibles constantly because you think you'll find eternal life there. But you miss the forest for the trees. These Scriptures are all about me! And here I am, standing right before you, and you aren't willing to receive from me the life you say you want. (MSG)
2 Timothy 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. (KJV)

The Book of Proverbs and the Book of Romans.
(Hebrews and James, also)
But my favorite verse of all is Proverbs 21:30- "There is no wisdom, or understanding, or counsel against the Lord."

Romans 8:1
"There is therefore now no condemnation to those of us who are in Christ Jesus....."
Ephesians 1:13
"Having believed, you were then sealed by the Holy Spirit of promise, who is the guarantee of the purchased possesion until the day of redemption"
Those verses speak of eternal security with Christ.....and no one can separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus (Romans 8:39)

My favorite passage of late is Titus 2:11-14
Tit 2:11 For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men.
Tit 2:12 It teaches us to say “No” to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age,
Tit 2:13 while we wait for the blessed hope—the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ,
Tit 2:14 who gave himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good. (NIV)
What a teaching in a small passage, you could study this passage for months and not get all the stuf thats in there.
Holy Ghost Fill us up, and give us an unction to do The Fathers will.
PRAISE PRAISE PRAISE

PS: That is a strange name you have, but your 360 is kickin it for Jesus. How did you come by it??
PSS: I figured it out, you don't know want to know what I thought it said. (miss out on one letter and its not very...appropriate to who you are. God did give me eys to see it though).
You take the main road to Seoul, and then you ask the first ROK you see for the KATUSA snack bar, that will get you to the main gate. From there it's just a matter how much time you have left, and have some barley water for me. :)

John 14-16 where Jesus is praying for believers and giving the disciples assurance. Also, John 3:17, "For God did not send His son into the world to condemn the world but that the world, through Him, might be saved."
