Titus 3:5. Because we are all sinners, we must all ask God for mercy to restore and to have an eternal relationship with God. None of us our perfect and we all fall short of the glory of God. For us that are religious, it is easy to start thinking that by our righteous works that we can be in right standing with God. No, this is not the answer to our salvation.

Ephesians 5:14. Beware of sleep needs and remedies that are driven by the false comfort of material things or driven by the apathy of a meaningless existence. We may think we are fulfilling our sleep needs, but in reality our sleep can be just as corrupting as when we are awake living a sinful life.

2 timothy 2:14. As part of being sanctified and set aside for God's use, we must guard ourselves and others from false doctrines that can subvert the faith.

Psalms 37:4. God is the answer to an unhappy life. God created us and created us for a purpose. True happiness comes from us having a sense of purpose in life and fulfilling it. If we ignore God or run from Him or hate Him, we will have an unhappy life.

Matthew 13:15. If you continually ask yourself, “Why am I unhappy”, it may be because you do not have Christ in your life. The Bible tells us that someone that is dull, listless, and looking inward on everything is far from God. It is this type of unhappy lifestyle that negatively affects both the mind and body.

Mark 16:4. A passion for Christ comes from knowing in your heart that Jesus defeated death and is alive today forever. Coming into the reality that Jesus (God in the flesh) defeated death on the cross and was resurrected is the essence of having a passion for Christ.

Luke 24:32. A relationship with Jesus is an extremely passionate relationship. A passion for Jesus is a call for action that overcomes you when you encounter Jesus. This encounter is so life-changing that your only desire is to continue to have more and more encounters with Christ. Having a passion for Jesus is much like having an adrenaline rush.

Acts 2:37. A passion for Jesus only overtakes us when we have an extraordinary encounter with Him. Jesus and His resurrection must be experience to be believed. A passion for Jesus only occurs when He touches our heart and pierces it with His truth, His goodness, His love, and His grace.

Romans 13:14. There is really only one method on how to have self-control in your life and that is through following Jesus' example. We can try all types of quick-fix, multiple-step plans, but the only complete solution for self-control is to follow Jesus. Most of us desire to have self-control in our lives in order to do what is right and not do things that in the long term will hurt us.

Romans 1:28. God does not desire for us to be separated from him. It is our choice to not be with Him. Many of us do not desire to retain God in our conscience because it is not convenient to our fleshly desires (Romans 1:28, "And even as they did not like to retain God in [their] knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;").

Romans 2:14. The Bible tells us that God made everyone with a conscience.

John 8:9. A social conscience is a set of customs and norms that are acceptable to a given society. Society's conscience changes over time and is usually driven by public acts and laws.

1 Thessalonians 2:13. If you love the truth of God's word, you will delight in it. As you love the truth more and more, you will gain in faith and assurance of your salvation. The word of God will start to work within you as your love of the truth grows.

John 3:16. These questions are key for understanding Christianity for new believers as well as all Christians. Christianity and the grace of God go hand in hand.

Matthew 21:32. Repentance is a key belief of Christians. The Bible teaches about God's righteousness and of His love. Though God loves us He is a righteous God. He cannot be in the presence of our sin because of His righteousness. Only through Jesus and our repentance can we achieve righteousness and be in fellowship with God.
