Menpleasers

Am I now using arguments to men, or God? or is it my desire to give men pleasure? if I was still pleasing men, I would not be a servant of Christ.

But even as the good news was given to us by the approval of God, so we give it out; not as pleasing men, but God by whom our hearts are tested.

In singleness

The light of the body is the eye; if then your eye is true, all your body will be full of light.

And day by day, going in agreement together regularly to the Temple and, taking broken bread together in their houses, they took their food with joy and with true hearts,

Servants, do what is ordered by those who are your natural masters, having respect and fear for them, with all your heart, as to Christ;

Fearing

And on the third day Joseph said to them, Do this, if you would keep your lives: for I am a god-fearing man:

And I said, What you are doing is not good: is it not the more necessary for you to go in the fear of our God, because of the shame which the nations may put on us?

Because much talk comes from dreams and things of no purpose. But let the fear of God be in you.

Though a sinner does evil a hundred times and his life is long, I am certain that it will be well for those who go in fear of God and are in fear before him.

This is the last word. All has been said. Have fear of God and keep his laws; because this is right for every man.

Because God, then, will give us such rewards, dear brothers, let us make ourselves clean from all evil of flesh and spirit, and become completely holy in the fear of God.
