Hope does not disappoint?  Is that your experience?  

do you believe all who call on the name of the Lord shall be saved?

Yes, from the heart. I can't judge cause I can't see everything. Some call from the flesh out of greed or for mans approval. I don't think confessions from lips that have hearts hidden in selfishness are earnestly seeking Him as Savior.  i don't know the depths of His promise or mans sincerity in a cry to Him. But, I do know the depth of His love is immeasurable. I also know He watches over His word to keep it. So yes I believe romans 10:13 and I have experienced romans 5:5.

You know His name is Savior (Yahshua He saves.

At any rate, post your favorite Scripture so I can highlight it in my new Bible.

My favourite verse is Galatians 2:20, the example of Paul living the crucified and resurrected life by the faith of the Son of God.
Galatians 2:20 (KJV): I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.

My favourite chapters are Psalm 8 and Isaiah 6, especially because of the many allusions and quotations of these in the NT, giving a Divine commentary or exposition of these. Both are centred in the work and ministry of our Lord Jesus Christ, in both the 1st and 2nd Coming.

Kind regards Trevor

One of my favorites is Psm 84.  I asked for it to be sung at our wedding in 1963.  

 ESV   How lovely is Your dwelling place, O Lord of Hosts!  My soul longs, yes faints for the courts of the Lord;  My heart and flesh sing for joy to the Living God.           Even the Sparrow finds a home, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young, at your altars, O LORD of hosts, my King and my God.  Blessed are those who dwell in your house, ever singing Your praise!

Blessed are those whose strength is in You, in whose heart are the highways to Zion.  As they go through the Valley of Baca (weeping) they make it a place of springs; the early rain also covers it with pools.  They go from strength; each one appears before God in Zion.

O LORD God of hosts, hear my prayer;  give ear, O God of Jacob!  Behold our shield, O God;  look on the face of Your anointed!

For a day in Your courts is better than a thousand elsewhere.  I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God than dwell in the tents of wickedness.  For the LORD God is a sun and a shield;  The LORD bestows favor nad honor.  No good thing does He withhold from those who walk uprightly.  O LORD of hosts, blessed is the one who trusts in You!

Galations 2;20)-

I am Crucified with Christ:

nevertheless,I live,

yet not I,But CHRIST LIVETH IN ME,

and the life which I now live in the flesh,.

I live by Faith of the Son of GOD,

who loved ME,and GAVE HIMSELF FOR ME.

 

Blessings,With Gods Grace..7Dove77

How beautiful Willa.  We did something different at our wedding too.  We (Steve and I) took communion, so that means a lot to me too.

It's probably impossible for me to pick just one, but this is the first one that came to mind and it's a great one  

                 “Truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears My word, and believes Him who sent Me, has eternal life, and does not come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life." ~John 5:24

Has anyone else here noticed because of the Internet you rarely open a Bible because you can find it all online.

It's just not the same though IMO.

At any rate, post your favorite Scripture so I can highlight it in my new Bible.

Gratias!

A couple of my favorites:

2Pe 2:16But was rebuked for his iniquity: the dumb ass speaking with man's voice forbad the madness of the prophet.

Jhn 6:70Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one ofyou is a devil?

Always reminding me of the truth that his ways are not our ways but above our ways.

[johnc5055]

Philippians 1:6 - being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus. (favorite this month )

Reminds me that it is not by my work that I grow in Christ but by his work. 

 

[Guest Butero]

And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.  Romans 8:28

Thus saith the LORD, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls.  Jeremiah 6:16a

Those are two of my favorites.  In the case of the verse from Jeremiah, the sad thing is that the last part of that verse says, "But they said, We will not walk therein."
