Page 877 … shutting mouth; opening Heart
“Where in the Bible does it say to shut your mouth and open your heart?”
Seriously, my Friend?!? … Ummmmmm – Well, how about HERE:
“Do not judge, so that you may not be judged … Why do you see the speck in your neighbor’s eye, but do not notice the log in your own? … You hypocrite! First take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly enough to remove the speck from your neighbor’s”
~ Jesus Christ (Matthew 7:1-5)
… and HERE:
“You hypocrites! For you clean the outside of the cup [of others], but inside are full of greed and self-indulgence … First clean the inside of your own cup, so that the outside might also then become truly clean.” ~ Jesus Christ (Matthew 23:25-26)
… and HERE:
“Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like children, you will never enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Whoever becomes humble like this child is the greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven … All who exalt themselves will be humbled, and all who humble themselves will be exalted.” ~ Jesus Christ (Matthew 18:3-4 + Matthew 23:12)
… and HERE:
“Let he who is without sin cast the first stone.” ~ Jesus Christ (John 8:7)
… and HERE:
“I give you a new commandment: that you Love one another. Just as I have loved you, so also should you Love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples: if you show Love towards one another.” ~ Jesus Christ (John 13:34-35)
… and HERE:
“Be perfect [in LOVE] therefore, just as [the LOVE] of your Father in Heaven is perfect … There is no fear in Love, but perfect Love casts out fear. For fear has to do with punishment, and whoever fears has not reached perfection in Love.” ~ Matthew 5:48 + 1 John 4:18
Shall I go on?
