BIBLE texts on the Words, WAY, TRUTH and LIFE.
(see John 14:16)

Here I am posting verses from the Bible that contain either of the english words, WAY, TRUTH or LIFE. (Different versions will be used - the letter and number in the brackets are the Strong's reference for the Hebrew [H] or Greek [G] word behind the english translation).

why saidst thou, She is my sister, so that I took her to be my wife? now therefore behold thy wife, take her, and go thy way[H1980]. GENESIS 12:19 ASV.

Let there be to me a sufficiency of all the justice and all the truth[G225] which thou hast wrought with thy servant; for with this my staff I passed over this Jordan, and now I am become two camps. GENESIS 32:10 Brenton LXX.

And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life[H2416]; and man became a living soul. GENESIS 2:7 KJV.


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
Trust in the LORD, and do good; dwell in the land and befriend faithfulness. PSALM 37:3 ESV.

2nd
And a woman who has an unbelieving husband, and he consents to dwell with her, let her not leave her husband. 1 CORINTHIANS 7:13 Darby.

3rd
Wilt thou trust him, because his strength is great? or wilt thou leave thy labor to him? JOB 39:11 KJV.

4th
But I hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timotheus to you shortly, that *I* also may be refreshed, knowing how ye get on. PHILIPPIANS 2:19 Darby.

5th
Know therefore that the LORD thy God, he is God, the faithful God, which keepeth covenant and mercy with them that love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations; DEUERONOMY 7:9 KJV.

6th
And he said to him, "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. MATTHEW 22:37 ESV.


CREATION:

Ask of the former days which were before thee, from the day when God created man upon the earth, and beginning at the one end of heaven to the other end of heaven, if there has happened any thing like to this great event, if such a thing has been heard:
33 if a nation have heard the voice of the living God speaking out of the midst of the fire, as thou hast heard and hast lived;
34 if God has assayed to go and take to himself a nation out of the midst of another nation with trial, and with signs, and with wonders, and with war, and with a mighty hand, and with a high arm, and with great sights, according to all the things which the Lord our God did in Egypt in thy sight.
35 So that thou shouldest know that the Lord thy God he is God, and there is none beside him.
36 His voice was made audible from heaven to instruct thee, and he shewed thee upon the earth his great fire, and thou heardest his words out of the midst of the fire.
37 Because he loved thy fathers, he also chose you their seed after them, and he brought thee himself with his great strength out of Egypt,
38 to destroy nations great and stronger than thou before thy face, to bring thee in, to give thee their land to inherit, as thou hast it this day.
39 An thou shalt know this day, and shalt consider in thine heart, that the Lord thy God he is God in heaven above, and on the earth beneath, and there is none else but he.
40 And keep ye his commandments, and his ordinances, all that I command you this day; that it may be well with thee, and with thy sons after thee, that ye may be long-lived upon the earth, which the Lord thy God giveth thee for ever. DEUTERONOMY 4:32-40


THANKSGIVING:

Lord, thankyou for Your Peace. There are millions, even billions of people who labor and toil in one way or another to 'earn a living' yet when the day is done they still have no peace. Thankyou that I can be at Peace as I share my day with you and still be at Peace when my day is done! I don't like this world, I don't feel I belong here, but your Grace and Peace gives me Strength and Hope to abide with/in you. Make me and all my Brethren, Your Children, 'channels of Your Peace' and cause us to be of service to others in the Power of Your Peace. Amen.
