Ephesians 2:10 For we are His workmanship,
created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God
prepared beforehand that we should walk in
them.
Luke 6:35 "But love your enemies, do good, and
lend, hoping for nothing in return; and your
reward will be great, and you will be sons of the
Most High. For He is kind to the unthankful and
evil. 36 "Therefore be merciful, just as your
Father also is merciful.
Matthew 25:14 " For the kingdom of heaven is
like a man traveling to a far country, who called
his own servants and delivered his goods to them.
15 "And to one he gave five talents, to another
two, and to another one, to each according to his
own ability; and immediately he went on a
journey. 16 "Then he who had received the five
talents went and traded with them, and made
another five talents. 17 "And likewise he who
had received two gained two more also. 18 "But
he who had received one went and dug in the
ground, and hid his lord's money. 19 "After a
long time the lord of those servants came and
settled accounts with them.
Matthew 25:24 "Then he who had received the one talent
came and said, 'Lord, I knew you to be a hard man,
reaping where you have not sown, and gathering where
you have not scattered seed. 25 'And I was afraid, and
went and hid your talent in the ground. Look, there you
have what is yours.' 26 "But his lord answered and said
to him, 'You wicked and lazy servant, you knew that I
reap where I have not sown, and gather where I have not
scattered seed. 27 'So you ought to have deposited my
money with the bankers, and at my coming I would have
received back my own with interest. 28 'Therefore take
the talent from him, and give it to him who has ten
talents. 29 'For to everyone who has, more will be given,
and he will have abundance; but from him who does not
have, even what he has will be taken away. 30 'And cast
the unprofitable servant into the outer darkness. There
will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.'
Revelation 3:1 "And to the angel of the church in Sardis
write, ' These things says He who has the seven Spirits of
God and the seven stars: "I know your works, that you
have a name that you are alive, but you are dead. 2 "Be
watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that
are ready to die, for I have not found your works perfect
before God. 3 "Remember therefore how you have
received and heard; hold fast and repent. Therefore if you
will not watch, I will come upon you as a thief, and you
will not know what hour I will come upon you. 4 "You
have a few names even in Sardis who have not defiled
their garments; and they shall walk with Me in white, for
they are worthy. 5 "He who overcomes shall be clothed in
white garments, and I will not blot out his name from the
Book of Life; but I will confess his name before My Father
and before His angels.
Luke 13:6 He also spoke this parable: "A certain
man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard, and he
came seeking fruit on it and found none. 7 "Then
he said to the keeper of his vineyard, 'Look, for
three years I have come seeking fruit on this fig
tree and find none. Cut it down; why does it use
up the ground?' 8 "But he answered and said to
him, 'Sir, let it alone this year also, until I dig
around it and fertilize it. 9 'And if it bears fruit,
well. But if not, after that you can cut it down.'
"
John 15:1 "I am the true vine, and My Father is
the vinedresser. 2 "Every branch in Me that does
not bear fruit He takes away; and every branch
that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear more
fruit.

Ezekiel 3:18 "When I say to the wicked, 'You shall

tunic, killed a kid of the goats, and dipped the tunic in the
blood. 32 Then they sent the tunic of many colors, and
they brought it to their father and said, "We have found
this. Do you know whether it is your son's tunic or not?"
33 And he recognized it and said, "It is my son's tunic. A
wild beast has devoured him. Without doubt Joseph is
torn to pieces." 34 Then Jacob tore his clothes, put
sackcloth on his waist, and mourned for his son many
days. 35 And all his sons and all his daughters arose to
comfort him; but he refused to be comforted, and he said,
"For I shall go down into the grave to my son in
mourning." Thus his father wept for him.

are truly guilty concerning our brother, for we
saw the anguish of his soul when he pleaded with
us, and we would not hear; therefore this distress

them, saying, "Did I not speak to you, saying, 'Do
not sin against the boy'; and you would not
listen? Therefore behold, his blood is now
required of us."
