it’s not all bad

 
 
 
 
 
 

My last entry showed some of the bad things in the KJ Bible. There are good things too, here are a few passages & the good morals they teach us. The Bible, much like the evening news, can be viewed in a positive light. Sometimes.


Holy Bible

 

Leviticus 19:18

Love thy neighbor as thyself."

 

Proverbs 3:13

Wisdom and understanding lead to happiness

 

Proverbs 4:24

Speak plainly and honestly to others.

 

Proverbs 21:23

Be careful how you speak; words can do great damage.


Ecclesiastes 7:9

Be not hasty in thy spirit to be angry: for anger resteth in the bosom of fools.


Isaiah 1:18

Come now, let us reason together.

 

John 8:32

The truth shall make you free.

 

Colossians 3:21

Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged.

 

1 John 3:18

Let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth.

 

And the best one, Matthew 7:1

Judge not, that ye be not judged.



Book of Mormon

 

Jacob 2:19

Use your wealth to help the poor and less fortunate


Mosiah 4:26

Help the poor, feed the hungry, clothe the naked, and care for the sick.

If only people followed some of these...
