Because I have called and you
refused to listen, have stretched
out my hand and no one has heeded,
because you have ignored all my
counsel and would have none of my
reproof, I also will laugh at your
calamity; I will mock when terror
strikes you, when terror strikes
you like a storm and your calamity
comes like a whirlwind, when
distress and anguish come upon
you. Then they will call upon me,
but I will not answer; they will
seek me diligently but will not
find me. ...
(Proverbs 1:24-33)
ESV
Let every person be subject to the
governing authorities. For there
is no authority except from God,
and those that exist have been
instituted by God. Therefore
whoever resists the authorities
resists what God has appointed,
and those who resist will incur
judgment. For rulers are not a
terror to good conduct, but to
bad. Would you have no fear of the
one who is in authority? Then do
what is good, and you will receive
his approval, for he is God's
servant for your good. But if you
do wrong, be afraid, for he does
not bear the sword in vain. For he
is the servant of God, an avenger
who carries out God's wrath on the
wrongdoer. Therefore one must be
in subjection, not only to avoid
God's wrath but also for the sake
of conscience. ...
(Romans 13:1-14)
ESV
Or do you not know that your body
is a temple of the Holy Spirit
within you, whom you have from
God? You are not your own, for you
were bought with a price. So
glorify God in your body.
(1 Corinthians 6:19-20)
ESV
Do
not be deceived: God is not
mocked, for whatever one sows,
that will he also reap. For the
one who sows to his own flesh will
from the flesh reap corruption,
but the one who sows to the Spirit
will from the Spirit reap eternal
life. And let us not grow weary of
doing good, for in due season we
will reap, if we do not give up.
(Galatians 6:7-9)
ESV
Submitting to one another out of
reverence for Christ. Wives,
submit to your own husbands, as to
the Lord. For the husband is the
head of the wife even as Christ is
the head of the church, his body,
and is himself its Savior. Now as
the church submits to Christ, so
also wives should submit in
everything to their husbands.
Husbands, love your wives, as
Christ loved the church and gave
himself up for her, ...
(Ephesians 5:21-33)
ESV
Children, obey your parents in the
Lord, for this is right. “Honor
your father and mother” (this is
the first commandment with a
promise), “that it may go well
with you and that you may live
long in the land.” Fathers, do not
provoke your children to anger,
but bring them up in the
discipline and instruction of the
Lord. Slaves, obey your earthly
masters with fear and trembling,
with a sincere heart, as you would
Christ, ...
(Ephesians 6:1-24)
ESV
Children, obey your parents in
everything, for this pleases the
Lord.
(Colossians 3:20)
ESV
So
whoever knows the right thing to
do and fails to do it, for him it
is sin.
(James 4:17)
ESV1

the inhale.
--Will Durst – American Writer
