  3. Something was Missing? “Doing business without advertising is like winking at a pretty girl in a dark theater. You know what you’re doing, but nobody else does.”

  4. Something was Missing? Proverbs 10:12 has to say about it. “Hatred stirreth up strifes: but love covereth all sins.

  5. Wife says, “You never tell me you love me anymore.”Husband replies, “I told you I loved you when we got married. If that changes, I’ll let you know!”

  6. Genesis 1:26 “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness; and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.”

  7. Genesis 2:18 “And the Lord God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make an help meet for him.”

  8. Genesis 29:15-30 Jacob meets Rachel

  9. Genesis 6:8-9 But Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord. These are the generations of Noah; Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God.”

  10. How do you walk with God? I John 1:5-10 – “This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in Him is no darkness at all. 6If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth. 7But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. 8If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 9If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”

  11. How do you walk with God? John 5:10 – “If we say we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.”

  12. Love our enemies Matthew 5:44 & 45 – “But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; 45That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven; for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.”

  13. Genesis 22 Abraham ready to sacrifice Isaac.

  14. Genesis 22:12 And He (being God) said “Lay not thine hand upon the lad, neither do thou any thing unto him: for I know that thou feared God, seeing thou hast not withheld thy son, thine only son from me.”

  15. Acts 7:51-60 Stephen being stoned for his beliefs

  16. Luke 23:34 “Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do.”

  17. Jesus talking to the apostles Mark 13:9 – “But take heed to yourselves: for they shall deliver you up to councils; and in the synagogues ye shall be beaten; and ye shall be brought before rulers and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them.”

  18. Go, stand and speak in the temple to the people all the words of this life. Acts 5:34-36 – 34Then stood there up one in the council, a Pharisee, named Gamaliel, a doctor of the law, had in reputation among all the people and commanded to put the apostles forth a little space; 35And said unto them, Ye men of Israel, take heed to yourselves what ye intend to do as touching these men. 36For before these day rose up Theu’das, boasting himself to be somebody; to whom a number of men, about four hundred, joined themselves; who was slain; and all, as many as obeyed him, were scattered, and brought to nought.

  19. Acts 5:37-39 –37After this man rose up Judas of Galilee in the days of taxing, and drew away much people after him: he also perished; and all, even as many as obeyed him, were dispersed. 38And now I say unto you, Refrain from these men, and let them alone: for if this counsel or this work be of men, it will come to nought: 39But if it be of God, ye cannot overthrow it; lest haply ye be found even to fight against God.

  20. Acts 5:40-42 – 40And to him they agreed: and when they had called the apostles, and beaten them, they commanded that they should not speak in the name of Jesus, and let them go. 41And they departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer shame for his name. 42And daily in the temple, and in every house, they ceased not to teach and preach Jesus Christ.”

  21. WHAT ARE WE AFRAID OF? Revelation 22:20-21. “He which testifieth these things saith, “Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come Lord Jesus. 21The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all, Amen

  25. What, exactly, is it that we have suffered for the Lord? Hebrews 11:32-38. For what shall I say? For the time would fail me to tell of Ged’eon, and of Bar’ak, and of Samson, and of Jeph’thae, of David also, and Samuel, and of the prophets: 33Who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions, 34Quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, waxed valiant in fight, turned to flight the armies of the aliens. 35Women received their dead raised to life again; and others were tortured, not accepting deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection: 36And others had trial of cruel mocking and scourging, yea, moreover of bonds and imprisonment; 37They were stoned, they were sawn asunder, were tempted, were slain with the sword; they wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins, being destitute, afflicted, tormented; 38(Of whom the world was not worthy) they wandered in deserts, and in mountains, and in dens and caves of the earth.

  29. He who loveth God love his brother also 1 John 4:20-21 – “If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar; for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen? 21And this commandment have we from him, That he who loveth God love his brother also.”
