  1. 26 Then God said, make human beings in our image,

    to be like ...” Genesis 1:26 “Let us us
  2. 18 Then the Lord God said, “It is not good

    for the man to be alone. I will make a helper who is just right for him.” Genesis 2: 18
  3. Letter to Ephesus 2 “I know all the things you

    do. I have seen your hard work and your patient endurance. I know you don’t tolerate evil people. You have examined the claims of those who say they are apostles but are not. You have discovered they are liars. 3 You have patiently suffered for me without quitting. 4 “But I have this complaint against you. You don’t love me or each other as you did at rst! 5 Look how far you have fallen! Turn back to me and do the works you did at rst. If you don’t repent, I will come and remove your lampstand from its place among the churches. 6 But this is in your favor: You hate the evil deeds of the Nicolaitans, just as I do. R!v!"#$%&' 2:2-6
  4. Letter to Pergamum 13 “I know that you live in

    the city where Satan has his throne, yet you have remained loyal to me. You refused to deny me even when Antipas, my faithful witness, was martyred among you there in Satan’s city. 14 “But I have a few complaints against you. You tolerate some among you whose teaching is like that of Balaam, who showed Balak how to trip up the people of Israel. He taught them to sin by eating food offered to idols and by committing sexual sin. 15 In a similar way, you have some Nicolaitans among you who follow the same teaching. 16 Repent of your sin, or I will come to you suddenly and ght against them with the sword of my mouth. R!v!"#$%&' 2:13-16
  5. Letter to Thyatira 19 “I know all the things you

    do. I have seen your love, your faith, your service, and your patient endurance. And I can see your constant improvement in all these things. 20 “But I have this complaint against you. You are permitting that woman—that Jezebel who calls herself a prophet—to lead my servants astray. She teaches them to commit sexual sin and to eat food offered to idols. 21 I gave her time to repent, but she does not want to turn away from her immorality. 22 “Therefore, I will throw her on a bed of suffering, and those who commit adultery with her will suffer greatly unless they repent and turn away from her evil deeds. 23 I will strike her children dead. Then all the churches will know that I am the one who searches out the thoughts and intentions of every person. And I will give to each of you whatever you deserve. R!v!"#$%&' 2:18-23
  6. The human body has many parts, but the many parts

    make up one whole body. So it is with the body of Christ. Some of us are Jews, some are Gentiles, some are slaves, and some are free. But we have all been baptized into one body by one Spirit, and we all share the same Spirit” 1 C&r%'$(%#') 12:12-13
  7. 18 Jesus came and told his disciples, “I have been

    given all authority in heaven and on earth. 19 Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. 20 Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” M#$$(!w 28:18-20

  10. Friend of mine, I’ve got to tell you, got to

    tell you take your time, drop the anchor, drop the anchor sink or swim we’re treading water, drowning here has never felt so real.

    lied to your face and I’ve taken my place with murderers and thieves there’s a storm, ahead, I’m hoping that it passes me by, cause I dont know if I, could withstand any rain
