Mark 9:43-45
If your hand causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life maimed than with two hands to go into hell, where the fire never goes out.And if your foot causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life crippled than to have two feet and be thrown into hell.
This is one of your favorite verses Jazzed? Really? Unusual choice...
I like verses that point to the mercy and love for all of God's creatures, like this one...
"And they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: FOR ALL SHALL KNOW ME, from the least to the greatest." Heb 8:11

Just teasing ya Jeff and commenting on your use of the bold function.
35But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest: for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil. 36Be ye therefore merciful, as your Father also is merciful. 37Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven.
I love the book of John. I can not pin point the verse because the whole book means so much to me. What book or verse has meant alot to you in your life?
As someone who has always needed reasons for everything
Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
has helped me more than I can say. I grew up with an atheist step father who drilled his objections to Christianity in me, and knowing that it is OK to look for evidence to believe in the Bible helped me immensely.
I wish one of the many preachers I had contact with when I was young had told me about this verse.
I love Jeremiah 29:11 "For I know the plans I have you says the Lord, they are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope".
This tells me if I follow the plan God has for me my life be full of joy and happiness.
I always liked this verse...here it is in different translations:
Jeremiah 17:9
9The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?
9 The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure. Who can understand it?
9 The heart is deceitful above all things, and it is exceedingly corrupt: who can know it?
