A Psalm of David. The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters. He restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff ...
Dec 14, 2023 · When we cannot do something in good conscience, we must not do it at all, for whatever is not of faith is sin, or, as the Amplified Bible expounds, “whatever is done with doubt is sinful” (Romans 14:23).

Merely hearing God’s law is a waste of your time if you don’t do what he commands. Doing, not hearing, is what makes the difference with God. 14-16 When outsiders who ...
Aug 8, 2013 · That’s what Paul has done. “Whatever is not from faith is sin” is a universal point. There are numerous supports for this outside Romans 14:23.

Is it possible to please God without faith?
The failure of the heart to be confident in the promises of God and to rejoice and find pleasure in his provision for the future is the root and essence of all sin.
