			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Heb 4:12-16   RSV</p>
<p>12 For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and spirit, of joints and marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart.</p>
<p>13 And before him no creature is hidden, but all are open and laid bare to the eyes of him with whom we have to do.</p>
<p>14 Since then we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession.</p>
<p>15 For we have not a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin.</p>
<p>16 Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There is no security on earth. Only in the One Who made it.</p>
<p>Isa 55:6-9</p>
<p>6 &#8220;Seek the LORD while he may be found,<br />
call upon him while he is near;<br />
7 let the wicked forsake his way,<br />
and the unrighteous man his thoughts;<br />
let him return to the LORD, that he may have mercy on him,<br />
and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.<br />
8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts,<br />
neither are your ways my ways, says the LORD.<br />
9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth,<br />
so are my ways higher than your ways<br />
and my thoughts than your thoughts.</p>
<p>Only God can save.</p>
<p>John 3:16-17</p>
<p>16 &#8220;For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. 17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.</p>
<p>Acts 2:36-39<br />
6 &#8220;Therefore let all Israel be assured of this: God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Christ.&#8221;</p>
<p>37 When the people heard this, they were cut to the heart and said to Peter and the other apostles, &#8220;Brothers, what shall we do?&#8221;</p>
<p>38 Peter replied, &#8220;Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39 The promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off-for all whom the Lord our God will call.&#8221;</p>
<p>Phil 3:7-21</p>
<p>7 But whatever was to my profit I now consider loss for the sake of Christ. 8 What is more, I consider everything a loss compared to the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them rubbish, that I may gain Christ 9 and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ-the righteousness that comes from God and is by faith. 10 I want to know Christ and the power of his resurrection and the fellowship of sharing in his sufferings, becoming like him in his death, 11 and so, somehow, to attain to the resurrection from the dead.</p>
<p>12 Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already been made perfect, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. 13 Brothers, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, 14 I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.</p>
<p>15 All of us who are mature should take such a view of things. And if on some point you think differently, that too God will make clear to you. 16 Only let us live up to what we have already attained.</p>
<p>17 Join with others in following my example, brothers, and take note of those who live according to the pattern we gave you. 18 For, as I have often told you before and now say again even with tears, many live as enemies of the cross of Christ. 19 Their destiny is destruction, their god is their stomach, and their glory is in their shame. Their mind is on earthly things. 20 But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ, 21 who, by the power that enables him to bring everything under his control, will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like his glorious body.<br />
(from New International Version)</p>
