Complete Thought: Ephesians 2:8-10
—For by Grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not of your doing; it is the gift from God and not works, so that no one can boast. For we are His workmanship, created In Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand so that we should walk in them.

This one:

Matthew 7:13-14 NIV
“Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it."

I think it would be to trust in God - Like I’m not smart enough to solve my own problems but God is smarter than Bill Gates or Elon Musk.

Psalm 139, 1-12

1 You have searched me, Lord,
and you know me.
2 You know when I sit and when I rise;
you perceive my thoughts from afar.
3 You discern my going out and my lying down;
you are familiar with all my ways.
4 Before a word is on my tongue
you, Lord, know it completely.
5 You hem me in behind and before,
and you lay your hand upon me.
6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me,
too lofty for me to attain.
7 Where can I go from your Spirit?
Where can I flee from your presence?
8 If I go up to the heavens, you are there;
if I make my bed in the depths, you are there.
9 If I rise on the wings of the dawn,
if I settle on the far side of the sea,
10 even there your hand will guide me,
your right hand will hold me fast.
11 If I say, “Surely the darkness will hide me
and the light become night around me,”
12 even the darkness will not be dark to you;
the night will shine like the day,
for darkness is as light to you.

The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?
When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell.
Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident.
One thing have I desired of the Lord, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the Lord, and to enquire in his temple.
For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock.
And now shall mine head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me: therefore will I offer in his tabernacle sacrifices of joy; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto the Lord.
Hear, O Lord, when I cry with my voice: have mercy also upon me, and answer me.

When thou saidst, Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee, Thy face, Lord, will I seek.
Psalms 27:1-8

Also
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever. Psalms 23:1-6.
It's pretty comforting.

1. When God destroys a family 'for no reason.'

God made a bet with Satan that Job, a good and blameless man, would remain faithful even if he killed his children and ruined his life. Here we see God indicting himself for the crime, openly confessing that he destroyed a family "for no reason." (Job 2:3 New Revised Standard Bible)

2. God destroys the fetuses of those who do not worship him.
"You shall acknowledge no God but me. . . . You are destroyed, Israel. . . . The people of Samaria must bear their guilt, because they have rebelled against their God. They will fall by the sword; their little ones will be dashed to the ground, their pregnant women ripped open." (Hosea 13:4, 9, 16 New International Version)

3. When Babies are slaughtered and wives raped.
See, the day of the Lord is coming — a cruel day, with wrath and fierce anger. . . . I will put an end to the arrogance of the haughty. . . . Their infants will be dashed to pieces before their eyes; their houses will be looted and their wives violated." (Isaiah 13:9–16 NIV)

4. When God tells people eat humans.
"... And ye shall eat the flesh of your sons, and the flesh of your daughters shall ye eat." (Leviticus 26:27–29 King James Version)

5. When god threatens rape.
"Why have these things come upon me?' it is for the greatness of your iniquity that your skirts are lifted up, and you are violated. . . because you have forgotten me and trusted in lies. I myself will lift up your skirts over your face, and your shame will be seen." (Jeremiah 13:15–26 NRSV)

6. Threatening to bash infants against rocks.

"... Happy shall they be who pay you back what you have done to us! Happy shall they be who take your little ones and bash them against the rock!"(Psalm 137:8–9 NRSV)

Varanus · Answer

I mean, it's a tossup between these two passages:

"Yet she became more and more promiscuous as she recalled the days of her youth, when she was a prostitute in Egypt. There she lusted after her lovers, whose genitals were like those of donkeys and whose emission was like that of horses. So you longed for the lewdness of your youth, when in Egypt your bosom was caressed and your young breasts fondled." - Ezekiel 23:19-21

"Say to David, ‘The king wants no other price for the bride than a hundred Philistine foreskins, to take revenge on his enemies.’" - 1 Samuel 18:20-30

Lionman95 · Answer

Matthew 6,6 But when you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you. Matthew 6,6 ESVFor me that's the most fascinating verse in the New Testament because it says that the Father IS in the secret. I also find it fascinating because the true search for God is done in secret.

ChiTown33 · Answer

Matthew 22: 37-39

I reference this passage so much it almost seems redundant. But I'm a firm believer in the K. I. S. S. method (keep it simple stupid) lol. Because boiled down to a simple message of the new testament it's this "love". Love God and love your fellow man. If everybody followed those 2 commandments what evil could come from that.

Kaneki05 · Answer

Leviticus 26:29
You will eat the flesh of your own sons and daughters.

I like it cause it shows god is a dictator ten fold. If one didn't obey his orders he would make you starve to the point you have to cannibalise other's a bit like Stalin.

23 From there Elisha went up to Bethel.
