Scripture Vocabulary


As I was travelling home tonight from a regular meetup with my brothers and sisters, I was prompted by the Spirit to refresh the scripture memories that I have committed to my mind. I started to recall in my heart one after another. Here is a list of what I would like to commit. I would like to refer to this particular entry as a reference page for my Scripture vocabulary.

"And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love."
~ 1 Corinthians 13:!3 (NIV)

"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.



Love never fails."
~ 1 Corinthians 13:4-7a (NIV)

"No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it."

~ 1 Corinthians 10:!3 (NIV)


"Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God—this is your spiritual act of worship. Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will. "
~ Romans 12:1-2 (NIV)

"so in Christ we who are many form one body, and each member belongs to all the others."
~ Romans 12:5 (NIV)

"Oh, the depth of the riches of the wisdom and knowledge of God!

How unsearchable his judgments,
and his paths beyond tracing out!
"Who has known the mind of the Lord?
Or who has been his counselor?"
"Who has ever given to God,
that God should repay him?"
For from him and through him and to him are all things.
To him be the glory forever! Amen."
~ Romans 11:33-36 (NIV)


"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!"
~ 2 Corinthians 5:!7 (NIV)


"for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,"

~ Romans 5:8 (NIV)

"For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse."
~ Romans 1:20 (NIV)



"In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express. And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints in accordance with God's will."
~ Romans 8:26-27 (NIV)




"And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him,[a] who[b] have been called according to his purpose."
~ Romans 8:28 (NIV)
