For the creation was subjected to frustration, not by its own choice, but by the will of the one who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself will be liberated from its bondage to decay and brought into the glorious freedom of the children of God. We know that the whole creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time.
Paul the ApostleBeware of the dogs, beware of the evil workers, beware of those who mutilate the flesh!
Paul the ApostleLet us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.

Paul the ApostleYour attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus: Who being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be grapsed, but made himself nothing, taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. And being found in appearnace as a man, he humbled himself and becamse obedient to death-even death on a cross!
Paul the Apostle
