God is faithful
"I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful.
John 15:1,2 NIV
_______________
For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death. For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:
That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
Romans 8:2-4 KJV
_______________
No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your strength, but with the temptation will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.
1 Corinthians 10:13 RSV
_______________
God, Whose grace is all sufficient, be glorified!
Thanks be unto God for His wonderful gift: Jesus Christ, the only
begotten Son of God is the object of our faith; the only faith that
saves is faith in Him.
Wisdom from above.
Who among you is wise and understanding? Let him show by his good
behavior his deeds in the gentleness of wisdom.
But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in
your heart, do not be arrogant and so lie against the truth.
This wisdom is not that which comes down from above, but is
earthly, natural, demonic. For where jealousy and selfish
ambition exist, there is disorder and every evil thing.
But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable,
gentle, reasonable, full of mercy and good fruits, unwavering,
without hypocrisy. And the seed whose fruit is righteousness
is sown in peace by those who make peace.
James 3:13-18 NASB
