Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in. (Luke 13:24)
These things saith He that is holy, He that is true, He that hath the key of David, He that openeth, and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth; I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it. (Rev. 3:7‑8)
For soon the Lord is coming,
   And they shall hear no more;
For when the Master rises,
   He then will shut the door.
So warn the lost who perish,
   To Christ they must repent;
Wait not until tomorrow;
   ’Tis now that you are sent.

This word, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain. Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear: for our God is a consuming fire. (Heb. 12:27‑29)
May grace, free grace, inspire
   Our souls with strength divine;
May every thought to God aspire,
   And grace in service shine.
Grace all the work shall crown
   Through everlasting days;
It lays in heaven the topmost stone,
   And well deserves the praise.

The Lord shall be thy confidence, and shall keep thy foot from being taken. (Prov. 3:26)
In quietness and in confidence shall be your strength. (Isa. 30:15)
When He giveth quietness, who then can make trouble? (Job 34:29)
Father, we commend our spirits
To Thy love, in Jesus’ name,
Love which His atoning merits
Give us confidence to claim.
From the world and its confusion,
Here we turn and find our rest;
From its care and its delusion,
Turn to Thee, in whom we’re blest.

This is the CONFIDENCE that we have in Him, that, if we ask anything according to His will, He heareth us: and if we know that He hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of Him. (1 John 5:14‑15)
In whom we have boldness and access with CONFIDENCE by the faith of Him. (Eph. 3:12)
Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, then have we CONFIDENCE toward God. (1 John 3:21)
Thy precious name is all we show,
   Our only passport, Lord;
And full assurance now we know,
   Confiding in Thy Word.
Sweet is the confidence Thou givest,
   Though high above our praise;
Our hearts resort to where Thou livest
   In heaven’s unclouded rays.

What do we? for this man doeth many miracles. If we let Him thus alone, all men will believe on Him; and the Romans shall come and take away both our place and nation. And one of them, named Caiaphas, being the high priest that same year, said unto them, Ye know nothing at all, nor consider that it is expedient for us, that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation perish not. (John 11:47‑50)
They which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ. (Rom. 5:17)
To God who gave His Son,
   To save us from our sin;
To Christ Himself who died,
   And made His people clean:
Eternal thanks and praise be given
By saints on earth, the heirs of heaven.

Who is that God that shall deliver you out of my hands? (Dan. 3:15)
If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and He will deliver us out of thine hand, O king. But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up. (Dan. 3:17‑18)
When thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee. (Isa. 43:2)
Stand not in fear, thy adversaries
   counting;
Dare every peril, save to disobey;
Thou shalt march on, all obstacles
   surmounting,
For I, the Lord, will open up the way.

If ye … know how to give good gifts unto your children; HOW MUCH MORE shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask Him? (Luke 11:13)
Consider the ravens: for they neither sow nor reap; which neither have storehouse nor barn; and God feedeth them: HOW MUCH MORE are ye better than the fowls? (Luke 12:24)
If the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh; HOW MUCH MORE shall the blood of Christ … purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God? (Heb. 9:13‑14)
Praise the Savior, ye who know Him;
Who can tell HOW MUCH we owe Him?
Gladly let us render to Him
   All we have and are.

None … can by any means redeem his brother, nor give to God a RANSOM for him. (Psa. 49:7)
I will RANSOM them from the power of the grave; I will redeem them from death. (Hos. 13:14)
Even the Son of Man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give His life a RANSOM for many. (Mark 10:45)
I will tell the wondrous story,
   How my lost estate to save,
In His boundless love and mercy,
   He the RANSOM freely gave.
I will praise my dear Redeemer;
   His triumphant power I’ll tell,
How the victory He giveth
   Over sin and death and hell.

Godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come. (1 Tim. 4:8)
Sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear. (1 Peter 3:15)
Help me the slow of heart to move
By some clear, winning word of love;
Teach me the wayward feet to stay,
And guide them in the homeward way.
In hope that sends a shining beam
Far down the future’s broadening
   stream;
In peace that only Thou canst give,
With Thee, O Savior, let me live.

Thus saith the Lord, which giveth the sun for a light by day, and the ordinances of the moon and of the stars for a light by night, which divideth the sea when the waves thereof roar; The Lord of hosts is His name: if those ordinances depart from before Me, saith the Lord, then the seed of Israel also shall cease from being a nation before Me forever. (Jer. 31:35‑36)
My Father, which gave them Me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of My Father’s hand. I and My Father are one. (John 10:29‑30)
When He adorned the arch of heaven
   And built it, Thou wast there,
To order where the sun should rise,
   And marshal every star.
Jesus! From everlasting days
   Thy thoughts upon us ran;
Ere sin was known, ere Adam’s dust
   Was fashioned into man.

Jethro rejoiced for all the goodness which the Lord had done to Israel, whom He had delivered out of the hand of the Egyptians. (Ex. 18:9)
Thou camest forth out of the land of Egypt in haste: that thou mayest remember the day when thou camest forth out of the land of Egypt all the days of thy life. (Deut. 16:3)
Let all those that seek Thee rejoice and be glad in Thee: let such as love Thy salvation say continually, The Lord be magnified. (Psa. 40:16)
When all Thy mercies, O my God,
   My rising soul surveys,
Transported with the view, I’m lost
   In wonder, love and praise.
Through every period of my life
   Thy goodness I’ll pursue;
The desert past, in glory bright,
   The precious theme renew.

They shall take of the blood, and strike it on the two side posts and on the upper doorpost of the houses, wherein they shall eat it. (Ex. 12:7)
His master shall bring him unto the judges; he shall also bring him to the door, or unto the doorpost; and his master shall bore his ear through with an awl; and he shall serve him forever. (Ex. 21:6)
Glory, glory everlasting
   Be to Him who bore the cross;
Who redeemed our souls by tasting
   Death, the death deserved by us!
His is love, ’tis love unbounded,
   Without measure, without end;
Human thought is here confounded;
   ’Tis too vast to comprehend.

From the end of the earth will I cry unto Thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I. For Thou hast been a shelter for me, and a strong tower from the enemy. (Psa. 61:2‑3)
Though a host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident. (Psa. 27:3)
Father and infinite God,
   My refuge and fortress rock,
Where I hide from the tempest’s wrath,
   And feel not the earthquake shock;
So I bide with a soul serene
   And a heart that is undismayed;
He is my strength and my shield;
   Of whom shall I be afraid?

The ear that heareth the reproof of life abideth among the wise. (Prov. 15:31)
It is better to hear the rebuke of the wise, than for a man to hear the song of fools. (Eccl. 7:5)
Wisdom giveth life to them that have it. (Eccl. 7:12)
Wisdom of God, we would by Thee be
   taught;
Control our minds, direct our every thought;
Knowledge alone life’s problems cannot
   meet;
We learn to live while sitting at Thy feet.
Light of the world, illumine us, we pray;
Our souls are dark without Thy kindling
   ray,
Torches unlighted, of all radiance bare;
Touch them to burn for Thine own glory
   there!

I am the door: by Me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture. (John 10:9)
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber. (John 10:1)
I am the door, I am the door,
By me if any man enter in,
He shall be saved, he shall be saved,
   He shall be saved.
I am the door, the words are but four;
Millions are in, but there’s room for
      more;
The door’s open wide, come right inside,
   And you shall be saved.

Keep this commandment without spot, unrebukable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ: which in His times He shall show, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords; who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honor and power everlasting. Amen. (1 Tim. 6:14‑16)
Lord Jesus, Thy people rejoice in Thy reign,
Rejoice in Thy highness, and praise Thee
   again!
Yea, Thine is the kingdom and Thine is the
   might,
And Thine is the glory transcendently
   bright;
Forever and ever that glory shall shine,
In the kingdom that shall forever be Thine,
For Thine is the power!

I commend unto you Phebe our sister, which is a servant of the church which is at Cenchrea: that ye receive her in the Lord, as becometh saints, and that ye assist her in whatsoever business she hath need of you: for she hath been a succorer of many, and of myself also. (Rom. 16:1‑2)
Erastus the chamberlain of the city saluteth you, and Quartus a brother. (Rom. 16:23)
We thank Thee, oh our Father,
   For the blessings that remain —
For the love that still is left us,
   For the friends who hold us dear,
For the lives that yet may need us
   For their guidance and their cheer,
For the work that waits our doing,
   For the help we can bestow,
For the care that watches o’er us
   Wheresoe’er our steps may go.

The Lord is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup. (Psa. 16:5)

Like Thee, O Lord — how wondrous fair,
Lord Jesus, all Thy members are;
A life divine to them is given —
The bright inheritance of heaven.
Just as Thou art — oh blissful ray
That turned our darkness into day!
That woke us from our death of sin
To know our perfectness in Him.

What wisdom is this which is given unto Him, that even such mighty works are wrought by His HANDS? (Mark 6:2)

Rolling surges of temptation,
   Sweeping over heart and brain,

All the waves and all the billows
   He will lead us safely through.

Be ye not as the horse, or as the mule, which have no understanding: whose mouth must be held in with bit and bridle. (Psa. 32:9)

If the Lord will, we shall live, and do this, or that. (James 4:15)
Though dark my path, and sad my lot,
Let me be still and murmur not,

Renew my will from day to day;
Blend it with Thine, and take away
All that now makes it hard to say,
   “Thy will be done!”

   Faith in Christ will save me;
Trust in Him, the risen One;
Trust the work that he has done;
To His arms I now may run;
   Faith in Christ will save me.

   In this hope our souls rejoice,
And His promised advent waiting,
   Soon shall hear His welcome voice.

Abraham drew near, and said, Wilt Thou also destroy the righteous with the wicked?

And the union of both joined in one
Form the fountain of love in His heart.

   With its love so unfailing and true;

   Take care that the writing is true;
For most that read, all the gospel they know,
   Is the gospel according to you.

Then go to a world that is dying,
