3 Things Paul did not do to the Corinthians, 2 Corinthians 7:2

2 Corinthians 7:2

Make room for us in your hearts.

We have wronged no one,
we have corrupted no one,
we have exploited no one.

6 empty Egyptian boasts and God's answer in Exodus 15:9,10


Exodus 15:9,10

The enemy boasted,

I will pursue,
I will overtake them.
I will divide the spoils;
I will gorge myself on them.
I will draw my sword
and my hand will destroy them.

But you blew with your breath, and the sea covered them. They sank like lead in the mighty waters.

21 terrible things Eliphaz says will happen to the wicked in Job 15


Job 15:20-35

All his days the wicked man suffers torment, the ruthless man through all the years stored up for him.

21 Terrifying sounds fill his ears;
when all seems well, marauders attack him.
22 He despairs of escaping the realm of darkness;
he is marked for the sword.
23 He wanders about for food like a vulture;
he knows the day of darkness is at hand.
24 Distress and anguish fill him with terror;
troubles overwhelm him, like a king poised to attack,

25 because he shakes his fist at God and vaunts himself against the Almighty, 26 defiantly charging against him with a thick, strong shield. 27 "Though his face is covered with fat and his waist bulges with flesh,

28 he will inhabit ruined towns and houses where no one lives, houses crumbling to rubble.
29 He will no longer be rich and his wealth will not endure, nor will his possessions spread over the land.
30 He will not escape the darkness;
a flame will wither his shoots,
and the breath of God's mouth will carry him away.

31 Let him not deceive himself by trusting what is worthless,

for he will get nothing in return.
32 Before his time he will wither,
and his branches will not flourish.
33 He will be like a vine stripped of its unripe grapes,
like an olive tree shedding its blossoms.
34 For the company of the godless will be barren,
and fire will consume the tents of those who love bribes.
35 They conceive trouble and give birth to evil; their womb fashions deceit."

3 things SImon didn't do but the sinful woman did in Luke 7:36-50


Luke 7:36-50
36 When one of the Pharisees invited Jesus to have dinner with him, he went to the Pharisee’s house and reclined at the table. 37 A woman in that town who lived a sinful life learned that Jesus was eating at the Pharisee’s house, so she came there with an alabaster jar of perfume. 38 As she stood behind him at his feet weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears. Then she wiped them with her hair, kissed them and poured perfume on them. 39 When the Pharisee who had invited him saw this, he said to himself, “If this man were a prophet, he would know who is touching him and what kind of woman she is - that she is a sinner.” 40 Jesus answered him, “Simon, I have something to tell you.” “Tell me, teacher,” he said. 41 “Two people owed money to a certain moneylender. One owed him five hundred denarii,[c] and the other fifty. 42 Neither of them had the money to pay him back, so he forgave the debts of both. Now which of them will love him more?” 43 Simon replied, “I suppose the one who had the bigger debt forgiven.” “You have judged correctly,” Jesus said. 44a Then he turned toward the woman and said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? I came into your house.

44b You did not give me any water for my feet,
but she wet my feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair.
45 You did not give me a kiss,
but this woman, from the time I entered, has not stopped kissing my feet.
46 You did not put oil on my head,
but she has poured perfume on my feet.

47 Therefore, I tell you, her many sins have been forgiven—as her great love has shown. But whoever has been forgiven little loves little.” 48 Then Jesus said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.” 49 The other guests began to say among themselves, “Who is this who even forgives sins?” 50 Jesus said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you; go in peace.”

9 sorts of sufferer cited in Hebrews 11:35-38

Hebrews 11:35bc-38

There were others who were

tortured, refusing to be released so that they might gain an even better resurrection.
Some faced jeers and flogging, (Jeremiah, Amos)
and even chains and imprisonment. (Micaiah)
They were put to death by stoning; (Naboth, Zechariah)
they were sawed in two; (Isaiah?)
they were killed by the sword.
They went about in sheepskins and goatskins, destitute,
persecuted and mistreated - the world was not worthy of them.
They wandered in deserts and mountains, living in caves and in holes in the ground.
