Matthew 6:24-34

24 No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to
the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
25 Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?
26 Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?
27 Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?
28 And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:
29 And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
30 Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?
31 Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?
32 (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.
33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
34 Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.

Philippians 1:21-24 
(21) For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.  
(22)  But if I live in the flesh, this is the fruit of my labour: yet what I shall choose I wot not.  
(23)  For I am in a strait betwixt two, having a desire to depart, and to be with Christ; which is far better:  
(24)  Nevertheless to abide in the flesh is more needful for you.

1 John 4:1-6 
(1) Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.  
(2)  Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:  
(3)  And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.  
(4)  Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.  
(5)  They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them.  
(6)  We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.

Micah 6:1-8 
(1) Hear ye now what the LORD saith; Arise, contend thou before the mountains, and let the hills hear thy voice.  
(2)  Hear ye, O mountains, the LORD'S controversy, and ye strong foundations of the earth: for the LORD hath a controversy with his people, and he will plead with Israel.  
(3)  O my people, what have I done unto thee? and wherein have I wearied thee? testify against me.  
(4)  For I brought thee up out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed thee out of the house of servants; and I sent before thee Moses, Aaron, and Miriam.  
(5)  O my people, remember now what Balak king of Moab consulted, and what Balaam the son of Beor answered him from Shittim unto Gilgal; that ye may know the righteousness of the LORD.  
(6)  Wherewith shall I come before the LORD, and bow myself before the high God? shall I come before him with burnt offerings, with calves of a year old?  
(7)  Will the LORD be pleased with thousands of rams, or with ten thousands of rivers of oil? shall I give my firstborn for my transgression, the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?  
(8)  He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?

Exodus 32:1-6, 25-26 

(1) And when the people saw that Moses delayed to come down out of the mount, the people gathered themselves together unto Aaron, and said unto him, Up, make us gods, which shall go before us; for as for this Moses, the man that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is become of him.  
(2)  And Aaron said unto them, Break off the golden earrings, which are in the ears of your wives, of your sons, and of your daughters, and bring them unto me.  
(3)  And all the people brake off the golden earrings which were in their ears, and brought them unto Aaron.  
(4)  And he received them at their hand, and fashioned it with a graving tool, after he had made it a molten calf: and they said, These be thy gods, O Israel, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.  
(5)  And when Aaron saw it, he built an altar before it; and Aaron made proclamation, and said, To morrow is a feast to the LORD.  
(6)  And they rose up early on the morrow, and offered burnt offerings, and brought peace offerings; and the people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play.
(25) And when Moses saw that the people were naked; (for Aaron had made them naked unto their shame among their enemies:)  
|(26)  Then Moses stood in the gate of the camp, and said, Who is on the LORD'S side? let him come unto me. And all the sons of Levi gathered themselves together unto him.

1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 
(13) But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.  
(14)  For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.  
(15)  For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.  
(16)  For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:  
(17)  Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.  
(18)  Wherefore comfort one another with these words.

Luke 17:22-37 
(22) And he said unto the disciples, The days will come, when ye shall desire to see one of the days of the Son of man, and ye shall not see it.  
(23)  And they shall say to you, See here; or, see there: go not after them, nor follow them.  
(24)  For as the lightning, that lighteneth out of the one part under heaven, shineth unto the other part under heaven; so shall also the Son of man be in his day.  
(25)  But first must he suffer many things, and be rejected of this generation.  
(26)  And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man.  
(27)  They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.  
(28)  Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded;  
(29)  But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all.  
(30)  Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.  
(31)  In that day, he which shall be upon the housetop, and his stuff in the house, let him not come down to take it away: and he that is in the field, let him likewise not return back.  
(32)  Remember Lot's wife.  
(33)  Whosoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it; and whosoever shall lose his life shall preserve it.  
(34)  I tell you, in that night there shall be two men in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left.  
(35)  Two women shall be grinding together; the one shall be taken, and the other left.  
(36)  Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.  
(37)  And they answered and said unto him, Where, Lord? And he said unto them, Wheresoever the body is, thither will the eagles be gathered together.

Psalms 33:12 
Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD; and the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance.
