BIBLE texts on FAITH, HOPE and LOVE.
(see 1 Thessalonians 1:3, 5:8; 1 Corinthians 13:13):

Some, or a lot of the texts I post may not contain any of the words Faith, Hope or Love, this is because I have decided to post verses that contain Hebrew or Greek words that have been translated at least once as Faith, Hope or Love but may not be translated as such every time. Many times they are translated as some other word or words but I post them anyway. So if you wonder why I have posted a text that doesn't have Faith, Hope or Love it is because it contains a Hebrew or Greek word that has been translated as such somewhere else. I have also included words to do with lack of Faith. I Hope that explains things! The highlighted word or words are the ones corresponding to the original Hebrew or Greek. The 1st and 2nd texts are on Faith, the 3rd and 4th on Hope and the 5th and 6th on Love.

1st
and to all their little ones, their wives, and their sons, and their daughters, the whole congregation of those entered in the register; for in their trust they hallowed themselves to be holy.
2 CHRONICLES 31:18 Darby.

2nd
Then he says to Thomas, Bring thy finger here and see my hands; and bring thy hand and put it into my side; and be not unbelieving, but believing. JOHN 20:27 Darby.

3rd
and they were helped against them, and the Hagarites were delivered into their hand, and all that were with them; for they cried to God in the battle, and he was intreated of them, because they put their trust in him. 1 CHRONICLES 5:20 Darby.

4th
For we write none other things unto you, than what ye read or acknowledge; and I trust ye shall acknowledge even to the end 2 CORINTHIANS 1:13 KJV.

5th
But the stranger that dwelleth with you shall be unto you as one born among you, and thou shalt love him as thyself; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt: I am the LORD your God. LEVITICUS 19:34 KJV.

6th
43 Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbor, and hate thine enemy.
44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;
MATTHEW 5:43,44 KJV.


CREATION:

1 And Adam knew Eve his wife, and she conceived and brought forth Cain and said, I have gained a man through God. GENESIS 4:1 Brenton LXX.

1 This is the book of Adam's generations. In the day that God created man, in the likeness of God made he him.
2 Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created. GENESIS 5:1,2 Darby.


THANKSGIVING:

Lord, thankyou for Jesus. Without Him I and all my Brethren would be dead, lost and very much in the dark. Thankyou that Christ has given us Light. May we all walk faithfully in the Light and allow ourselves to be corrected if we stray from the Light. Amen.
