Scriptural Encouragement & Exhortation   The Will of God (1)   Jesus said, "Who are My mother and My brothers?" Looking about at those who were sitting around Him, He *said, "Behold My mother and My brothers! For whoever does the will of God, he is My brother and sister and mother."…do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect…be obedient to those who are your masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in the sincerity of your heart, as to Christ; not by way of eyeservice, as men-pleasers, but as slaves of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart…Rejoice always; pray without ceasing; in everything give thanks; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus…I now rejoice, not that you were made sorrowful, but that you were made sorrowful to the point of repentance; for you were made sorrowful according to the will of God, so that you might not suffer loss in anything through us. For the sorrow that is according to the will of God produces a repentance without regret, leading to salvation, but the sorrow of the world produces death…For this is the will of God, your sanctification; that is, that you abstain from sexual immorality; that each of you know how to possess his own vessel in sanctification and honor, not in lustful passion, like the Gentiles who do not know God…For such is the will of God that by doing right you may silence the ignorance of foolish men.   (Mar 3:33-35; Rom 12:2; Eph 6:5, 6; 1Th 5:16-18; 2Co 7:9, 10; 1Th 4:3-5; 1Pe 2:15)   SEE’s are compiled by Chuck Long using Scriptures from the NEW AMERICAN STANDARD BIBLE.  SEE’s are emailed without cost to those who would like to receive them.  You are permitted and encouraged to reproduce and distribute this material in any format provided that you do NOT alter the wording in any way, and you do not charge a fee for them.  Freely you have received, freely give.  Your cooperation is greatly appreciated and God will be very pleased with your honesty!  Thanks.
