is not a man, that He should lie; neither The son Of Man, that He
should repent: hath He said, and shall He not do it? or hath He

lips.

thou art the same, and thy years shall have no end.

consumed.
Matthew

let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for whatsoever is more
than these cometh of evil.
Ephesians
4:1 KJV
I
therefore, the prisoner of The Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy
of the vocation wherewith ye are called,
Philippians
1:27 NLT
Above
all, you must live as citizens of heaven, conducting yourselves in a
manner worthy of The Good News about Christ. Then, whether I come and
see you again or only hear about you, I will know that you are
standing together with one spirit and one purpose, fighting together
for the faith, which is The Good News.

In
hope of eternal life which God, who cannot lie, promised before time
began,
Hebrews
6:17,18 NLT
17
God also bound Himself with an oath, so that those who received the
promise could be perfectly sure that He would never change His mind.
18
So God has given both His promise and His oath. These two things are
unchangeable because it is impossible for God to lie. Therefore, we
who have fled to Him for refuge can have great confidence as we hold
to the hope that lies before us.
Hebrews
7:21 NLT
but
there was an oath regarding Jesus. For God said to Him, “The Lord
has taken an oath and will not break His vow:‘You are a Priest
forever.’”

then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons
ought ye to be in all holy conversation and Godliness,
The Word, Fickleness:

hate those with divided loyalties, but I love your instructions.

First
here, then there— you flit from one ally to another asking for
help. But your new friends in Egypt will let you down, just as
Assyria did before.
II
Corinthians 1:17-20 NLT
17
You may be asking why I changed my plan. Do you think I make my plans
carelessly? Do you think I am like people of the world who say “Yes”
when they really mean “No”?
18
As surely as God is faithful, our word to you does not waver between
“Yes” and “No.”
19
For Jesus Christ, The Son Of God, does not waver between “Yes”
and “No.” He is the one whom Silas, Timothy, and I preached to
you, and as God’s ultimate “Yes,” He always does what He says.
20
For all of God’s promises have been fulfilled in Christ with a
resounding “Yes!” And through Christ, our “Amen” (which means
“Yes”) ascends to God for His glory.
Ephesians
4:14 KJV
That
we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried
about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning
craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;
James
1:5-8 KJV
5
If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men
liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.
6
But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is
like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.
7
For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of The
Lord.
8
A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.
II
Peter 2:14 NLT
They
commit adultery with their eyes, and their desire for sin is never
satisfied. They lure unstable people into sin, and they are well
trained in greed. They live under God’s curse.
II
Peter 3:15,16 NLT
15
And remember, our Lord’s patience gives people time to be saved.
This is what our beloved brother Paul also wrote to you with the
wisdom God gave him—
16
speaking of these things in all of his letters. Some of his comments
are hard to understand, and those who are ignorant and unstable have
twisted his letters to mean something quite different, just as they
do with other parts of Scripture. And this will result in their
destruction.
Prayer:
I
John 2:6 KJV
He
that saith he abideth in Him ought himself also so to walk, even as
He walked.
