Our Favorite Verses

1John 2:2  And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.

This verse blew me away the first time I read it!  Imagine that! Jesus Christ died for the sins of the WHOLE world and God the Father was satisfied with His sacrifice!  WOW!
Don DiPascal

Galatians 6:9  And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

One of my many favorite verses is Gal 6:9. This verse lifts me up when I get stressed.  This verse gives me encouragement to keep moving forward in any situation and reminds me that I am too blessed to be stressed.
Kathryn Moran

Psalms 58:10   The righteous will rejoice when he sees the vengeance; He will wash his feet in the blood of the wicked.

I love this verse because it looks forward to the time Jesus will be running the show and we will be judging the earth.
Overholt

John 17:20-21 (NKJV)  "I do not pray for these alone, but also for those who will believe in Me through their word; that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You sent Me.

This set of verses is one of my favorites as it highlights that God wants to be ONE with us. What an unspeakable joy it will be, to be complete, perfect, and united with God forever.
Gregory Clayborne

John 3:36 (KJV)  He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.

This verse has the essentials in three parts and you can tap your toe to it.  The 'and' and the 'but' serve as pauses or breaks in the rhythm.  The first part tells you what you need to do to have everlasting life.  The second part is the inverse of the first to help lock down the meaning.  The third part informs you of the consequence of not believing..  Belief has an object.  For salvation, that object is Christ.  Broken in three parts as it is, it reminds me of the trinity.  Once I saw this, it became easier to see other verses structured in three parts.
Steve Fatland

James 1:26  If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is vain.

This is my favorite verse because its a daily, moment by moment reminder that God Almighty expects that a person's Christian walk should be both in spirit and truth. With as many phoney christian folks out there, this should be a mainstay of all who claim the name of Jesus Christ.
Jim Roberts

Philippians 1:3  I thank my God upon every remembrance of you,

Thanksgiving! When I think about my dear church family and how it nurtures and encourages me, I am reminded of Paul's affectionate greeting and "thank you note" to the church at Philippi and its leaders.
David Fraguela

John 6:18-21  And the sea arose by reason of a great wind that blew. So when they had rowed about five and twenty or thirty furlongs, they see Jesus walking on the sea, and drawing nigh unto the ship: and they were afraid. But he saith unto them, It is I; be not afraid. Then they willingly received him into the ship: and immediately the ship was at the land whither they went.

I like this as a picture of our salvation. In spite of the storm/raging sea (of life), when we recognize/believe in Him and willingly receive the Lord into our boat (lives), we are immediately on the "other side" (saved) without having to row (work) any more...
Kevin Hotard

Galatians 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 the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.

Jesus Christ died and gave himself for me...now I live by faith as a new creature, not letting the enemy of my soul re-run my heathen life like a video in my brain...I'm to leave all those things and press toward being conformed to the image and likeness of my Wonderful Lord and Savior Jesus Christ...and praying daily Even so, come Lord Jesus!
Carleen Hamel

Romans 8:38-39 (JKV)  For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

All of chapter 8 is exquisite. Yet, these concluding verses utterly declare the blessed assurance we have of the absolute permanence of our Salvation. It drives home the opening verse that states that there is no condemnation to them which are in Christ (Rom.8:1). This is vital to the believer since in this world we live in, our adversary constantly seeks to drive a wedge between us and Christ. Paul assures us that nothing can separate us form His love. It offers great comfort to the believer, and hopefully inspires the unbeliever to come to Christ.
