My God and My Country

1 Timothy 6:11-12 - 1599 Geneva Bible

11 But thou, O man of God, flee these things, and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, and meekness.
12 Fight the good fight of faith: lay hold of eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.

Heavenly Father forgive my absence of yesterday as I was very busy. Today, open my eyes and heart to Your word – amen

Brethren:

Paul sayest herein unto his young protege to hold steadfast and continue along the path that has been given unto to him. To stay away from all vanities, and run the race with determination thus achieving the uncorruptable crown of glory; that being eternal life. - R.P. Woitowitz SR.

“Thou, who hast taken God for thy portion, and art seeking a city that hath foundations, whose builder is the living God, flee these things. Escape for thy life. Even thou art not out of the reach of the love of money. How many of the ministers of religion have been ruined by this! And how much has religion itself suffered by their love of money!
Follow after righteousness - Justice and uprightness in all thy dealings with men. Godliness - a thorough conformity to the image of God and mind of Christ. Faith in Jesus, and in all that he has spoken; and fidelity to the talents thou hast received, and the office with which thou art entrusted. Love to God and all mankind. Patience in all trials and afflictions, and bearing up with an even mind under all adversities and contradictions.” - Adam Clarke
