@Pearl "And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness...

@Pearl Good for quotes to be self-evident, right? sometimes the way quoted they are not...

@soul man Here the 'I' is replaced by the 'not I'... Reminds me of Philippians 2, where the Lord Jesus 'made Himself of no reputation' (Gk: kenoo) and was obedient unto death, even the death of the Cross.

@Waiting on him I love John Newton's words: "Saviour, if of Zion’s city, I through grace a member am, Let the world deride or pity, I will glory in Thy name; Fading is the worldling’s pleasure, All his boasted pomp and show; Solid joys and lasting treasure None but Zion’s children know."...
