Jesus said to his disciples:
"I am the true vine, and my Father is the vine grower.
He takes away every branch in me that does not bear fruit,
and every one that does he prunes so that it bears more fruit.
You are already pruned because of the word that I spoke to you.
Remain in me, as I remain in you.
The stone rejected by the builders has become the cornerstone. Ps 118
You cannot teach something that you know nothing about. You cannot convince someone of the truth of Jesus' Gospel if you do not know and accept that truth yourself. You cannot speak for Jesus if you do not know Jesus. And you do not truly know Jesus if you do not keep His commandments. You cannot know and keep His commandments if you do not know and understand His Gospel.
His mercy endures forever.
My strength and my courage is the LORD
This is the day the LORD has made;
let us be glad and rejoice in it.
"But if Christ is in you,although the body is dead because of sin,
the spirit is alive because of righteousness.
If the Spirit of the one who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you,
the one who raised Christ from the dead will give life to your mortal bodies also,
through his Spirit dwelling in you." Heb 8:8-11 NAB
"Brothers and sisters, there was a time when you were darkness, but now you are light in the Lord."
The law of the LORD is perfect,
refreshing the soul;
The decree of the LORD is trustworthy,
giving wisdom to the simple.
Lord, you have the words of everlasting life.
And concerning the resurrection of the dead, have you not read what was said to you by God, I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’? He is not the God of the dead but of the living.” Mt 22:31-32
"The time has come! Change your lives and believe in the Gospel!" Mark 1:15
I turn to you, Lord, in time of trouble, and you fill me with the joy of salvation. Ps 32:1-2, 5, 11
