Hebrews 13:5

love of money, being content with what you have; for He Himself has said, "I WILL
NEVER DESERT YOU, NOR WILL I EVER FORSAKE YOU," |
|

HELPER, I WILL NOT BE AFRAID. WHAT WILL MAN DO TO ME?" |

and forever. |

For the bodies of those animals whose blood
is brought into the holy place by the high priest as an offering for sin, are
burned outside the camp. |

|
|
Therefore Jesus also, that He might sanctify
the people through His own blood, suffered outside the gate. |

So, let us go out to Him outside the camp, bearing
His reproach. |
|
|
|

we are seeking the city which is to come. |

And do not neglect doing good and sharing, for
with such sacrifices God is pleased. |
|
|
|
Hebrews 13:17

Obey your leaders and submit to them, for they
keep watch over your souls as those who will give an account. Let them do this
with joy and not with grief, for this would be unprofitable for you. |

I may be restored to you the sooner. |

|
equip you in every good thing to do His will,
working in us that which is pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom
be the glory forever and ever. Amen. |
