FAITHFULNESS/Brown Belt

I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.

(2 Timothy 4:7)

For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith and this not from

yourselves, it is the gift of God & not by works, so that no one can boast.

(Ephesians 2:8-9)

Carry each other's burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.

(Galations 6:2)

My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me. I give them

eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one can snatch them out of my hand.

My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all; no one can snatch

them out of my Father's hand. (John 10:27-29)

Humble yourselves, therefore, under God's mighty hand, that he may lift you

up in due time. Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.

(1 Peter 5:6-7)

On the Lord's Day I was in the Spirit, and I heard behind me a loud voice like a

trumpet, 11which said: "Write on a scroll what you see and send it to the seven

churches: to Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia and

Laodicea." (Revelation 1:10-11)

Hear my cry for mercy as I call to you for help, as I lift up my hands toward

your Most Holy Place. (Psalm 28:2)

Testify

But in your hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an

answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have.

But do this with gentleness and respect. (1 Peter 3:15)

When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them, because they were

harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd. (Matthew 9:36)

For the word of God is living and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword,

it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the

thoughts and attitudes of the heart. (Hebrews 4:12)
