羅馬書 12:2
Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is-his good, pleasing and perfect will.
不要效法這個世界,只要心意更新而變化,叫你們察驗何為神的善良、純全、可喜悅的旨意。
耶利米書 13:23
Can an Ethiopian change his skin or a leopard its spots? Neither can you do good who are accustomed to doing evil.
古實人豈能改變皮膚呢?豹豈能改變斑點呢?若能,你們這習慣行惡的便能行善了。
哥林多前書 11:1
Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ.
你們該效法我,像我效法基督一樣。
箴言 4:20
- 27
My son, pay attention to what I say; turn your ear to my words.
Do not let them out of your sight, keep them within your heart;
for they are life to those who find them and health to one's whole body.
Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.
Keep your mouth free of perversity; keep corrupt talk far from your lips.
Let your eyes look straight ahead; fix your gaze directly before you.
Give careful thought to the paths for your feet and be steadfast in all your ways.
Do not turn to the right or the left; keep your foot from evil.
我兒,要留心聽我的言詞,側耳聽我的話語,
都不可離你的眼目,要存記在你心中。
因為得著他的,就得了生命,又得了醫全體的良藥。
你要保守你心,勝過保守一切(或作:你要切切保守你心),因為一生的果效是由心發出。
你要除掉邪僻的口,棄絕乖謬的嘴。
你的眼目要向前正看;你的眼睛(原文作皮)當向前直觀。
要修平你腳下的路,堅定你一切的道。
不可偏向左右;要使你的腳離開邪惡。
希伯來書 10:25
not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another-and all the more as you see the Day approaching.
你們不可停止聚會,好像那些停止慣了的人,倒要彼此勸勉,既知道(原文作看見)那日子臨近,就更當如此。
使徒行傳 20:35
In everything I did, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said: 'It is more blessed to give than to receive.' "
我凡事給你們作榜樣,叫你們知道應當這樣勞苦,扶助軟弱的人,又當記念主耶穌的話,說:『施比受更為有福。』」
哥林多前書 6:12
"I have the right to do anything," you say-but not everything is beneficial. "I have the right to do anything"-but I will not be mastered by anything.
凡事我都可行,但不都有益處。凡事我都可行,但無論哪一件,我總不受他的轄制。
哥林多前書 10:13
No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.
你們所遇見的試探,無非是人所能受的。神是信實的,必不叫你們受試探過於所能受的;在受試探的時候,總要給你們開一條出路,叫你們能忍受得住。
以弗所書 4:28
Anyone who has been stealing must steal no longer, but must work, doing something useful with their own hands, that they may have something to share with those in need.
從前偷竊的,不要再偷;總要勞力,親手做正經事,就可有餘分給那缺少的人。
馬可福音 7:20
- 23
He went on: "What comes out of a person is what defiles them.
For it is from within, out of a person's heart, that evil thoughts come-sexual immorality, theft, murder,
adultery, greed, malice, deceit, lewdness, envy, slander, arrogance and folly.
All these evils come from inside and defile a person."
又說:「從人裡面出來的,那才能污穢人;
因為從裡面,就是從人心裡,發出惡念、苟合、
偷盜、兇殺、姦淫、貪婪、邪惡、詭詐、淫蕩、嫉妒、謗讟、驕傲、狂妄。
這一切的惡都是從裡面出來,且能污穢人。」
以弗所書 5:1
Follow God's example, therefore, as dearly loved children
所以,你們該效法神,好像蒙慈愛的兒女一樣。
馬太福音 7:12
So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.
所以,無論何事,你們願意人怎樣待你們,你們也要怎樣待人,因為這就是律法和先知的道理。」
