Joshua 2:1-22

      1.   And Joshua the son of Nun sent out of Shittim two men as spies secretly, saying, Go, view the land, and Jericho. And they went and came into the house of a harlot whose name was Rahab, and lay there.
      2   And it was told the king of Jericho, saying, Behold, there came men in hither to-night of the children of Israel to search out the land.
      3   And the king of Jericho sent unto Rahab, saying, Bring forth the men that are come to thee, that are entered into thy house; for they are come to search out all the land.
      4   And the woman took the two men, and hid them; and she said, Yea, the men came unto me, but I knew not whence they were:
      5   and it came to pass about the time of the shutting of the gate, when it was dark, that the men went out; whither the men went I know not: pursue after them quickly; for ye will overtake them.
      6   But she had brought them up to the roof, and hid them with the stalks of flax, which she had laid in order upon the roof.
      7   And the men pursued after them the way to the Jordan unto the fords: and as soon as they that pursued after them were gone out, they shut the gate.
      8.   And before they were laid down, she came up unto them upon the roof;
      9   and she said unto the men, I know that Jehovah hath given you the land, and that the fear of you is fallen upon us, and that all the inhabitants of the land melt away before you.
      10   For we have heard how Jehovah dried up the water of the Red Sea before you, when ye came out of Egypt; and what ye did unto the two kings of the Amorites, that were beyond the Jordan, unto Sihon and to Og, whom ye utterly destroyed.
      11   And as soon as we had heard it, our hearts did melt, neither did there remain any more spirit in any man, because of you: for Jehovah your God, he is God in heaven above, and on earth beneath.
      12   Now therefore, I pray you, swear unto me by Jehovah, since I have dealt kindly with you, that ye also will deal kindly with my father's house, and give me a true token;
      13   and that ye will save alive my father, and my mother, and my brethren, and my sisters, and all that they have, and will deliver our lives from death.
      14   And the men said unto her, Our life for yours, if ye utter not this our business; and it shall be, when Jehovah giveth us the land, that we will deal kindly and truly with thee.
      15   Then she let them down by a cord through the window: for her house was upon the side of the wall, and she dwelt upon the wall.
      16   And she said unto them, Get you to the mountain, lest the pursuers light upon you; and hide yourselves there three days, until the pursuers be returned: and afterward may ye go your way.
      17   And the men said unto her, We will be guiltless of this thine oath which thou hast made us to swear.
      18   Behold, when we come into the land, thou shalt bind this line of scarlet thread in the window which thou didst let us down by: and thou shalt gather unto thee into the house thy father, and thy mother, and thy brethren, and all thy father's household.
      19   And it shall be, that whosoever shall go out of the doors of thy house into the street, his blood shall be upon his head, and we shall be guiltless: and whosoever shall be with thee in the house, his blood shall be on our head, if any hand be upon him.
      20   But if thou utter this our business, then we shall be guiltless of thine oath which thou hast made us to swear.
      21   And she said, According unto your words, so be it. And she sent them away, and they departed: and she bound the scarlet line in the window.
      22.   And they went, and came unto the mountain, and abode there three days, until the pursuers were returned: and the pursuers sought them throughout all the way, but found them not.

Psalms 51:17

      17   The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: A broken and contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.

Isaiah 1:18

      18   Come now, and let us reason together, saith Jehovah: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.

Jeremiah 23:16-22

      16   Thus saith Jehovah of hosts, Hearken not unto the words of the prophets that prophesy unto you: they teach you vanity; they speak a vision of their own heart, and not out of the mouth of Jehovah.
      17   They say continually unto them that despise me, Jehovah hath said, Ye shall have peace; and unto every one that walketh in the stubbornness of his own heart they say, No evil shall come upon you.
      18   For who hath stood in the council of Jehovah, that he should perceive and hear his word? who hath marked my word, and heard it?
      19   Behold, the tempest of Jehovah, even his wrath, is gone forth, yea, a whirling tempest: it shall burst upon the head of the wicked.
      20   The anger of Jehovah shall not return, until he have executed, and till he have performed the intents of his heart: in the latter days ye shall understand it perfectly.
      21   I sent not these prophets, yet they ran: I spake not unto them, yet they prophesied.
      22   But if they had stood in my council, then had they caused my people to hear my words, and had turned them from their evil way, and from the evil of their doings.

Matthew 7:22, 23

      22   Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy by thy name, and by thy name cast out demons, and by thy name do many mighty works?
      23   And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

Matthew 18:1-14

      1.   In that hour came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, Who then is greatest in the kingdom of heaven?
      2   And he called to him a little child, and set him in the midst of them,
      3   and said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye turn, and become as little children, ye shall in no wise enter into the kingdom of heaven.
      4   Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
      5   And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me:
      6   But whoso shall cause one of these little ones that believe on me to stumble, it is profitable for him that a great millstone should be hanged about his neck, and that he should be sunk in the depth of the sea.
      7.   Woe unto the world because of occasions of stumbling! for it must needs be that the occasions come; but woe to that man through whom the occasion cometh!
      8   And if thy hand or thy foot causeth thee to stumble, cut it off, and cast it from thee: it is good for thee to enter into life maimed or halt, rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into the eternal fire.
      9   And if thine eye causeth thee to stumble, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: it is good for thee to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into the hell of fire.
      10   See that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, that in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father who is in heaven.
      11   For the Son of man came to save that which was lost.
      12   How think ye? if any man have a hundred sheep, and one of them be gone astray, doth he not leave the ninety and nine, and go unto the mountains, and seek that which goeth astray?
      13   And if so be that he find it, verily I say unto you, he rejoiceth over it more than over the ninety and nine which have not gone astray.
      14   Even so it is not the will of your Father who is in heaven, that one of these little ones should perish.

Matthew 18:1-6

      1.   In that hour came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, Who then is greatest in the kingdom of heaven?
      2   And he called to him a little child, and set him in the midst of them,
      3   and said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye turn, and become as little children, ye shall in no wise enter into the kingdom of heaven.
      4   Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
      5   And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me:
      6   But whoso shall cause one of these little ones that believe on me to stumble, it is profitable for him that a great millstone should be hanged about his neck, and that he should be sunk in the depth of the sea.

Matthew 25:31-46

      31.   But when the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the angels with him, then shall he sit on the throne of his glory:
      32   and before him shall be gathered all the nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as the shepherd separateth the sheep from the goats;
      33   and he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.
      34   Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:
      35   for I was hungry, and ye gave me to eat; I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink; I was a stranger, and ye took me in;
      36   naked, and ye clothed me; I was sick, and ye visited me; I was in prison, and ye came unto me.
      37   Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee hungry, and fed thee? or athirst, and gave thee drink?
      38   And when saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee?
      39   And when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?
      40   And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it unto one of these my brethren, even these least, ye did it unto me.
      41   Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into the eternal fire which is prepared for the devil and his angels:
      42   for I was hungry, and ye did not give me to eat; I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink;
      43   I was a stranger, and ye took me not in; naked, and ye clothed me not; sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.
      44   Then shall they also answer, saying, Lord, when saw we thee hungry, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee?
      45   Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not unto one of these least, ye did it not unto me.
      46   And these shall go away into eternal punishment: but the righteous into eternal life.

Mark 5:18, 19

      18   And as he was entering into the boat, he that had been possessed with demons besought him that he might be with him.
      19   And he suffered him not, but saith unto him, Go to thy house unto thy friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee, and how he had mercy on thee.

Luke 12:5

      5   But I will warn you whom ye shall fear: Fear him, who after he hath killed hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear him.

Acts 26:11

      11   And punishing them oftentimes in all the synagogues, I strove to make them blaspheme; and being exceedingly mad against them, I persecuted them even unto foreign cities.

Romans 14:15

      15   For if because of meat thy brother is grieved, thou walkest no longer in love. Destroy not with thy meat him for whom Christ died.

1 Corinthians 4:5

      5   Wherefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord come, who will both bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and make manifest the counsels of the hearts; and then shall each man have his praise from God.

1 Corinthians 8:9-13

      9   But take heed lest by any means this liberty of yours become a stumblingblock to the weak.
      10   For if a man see thee who hast knowledge sitting at meat in an idol's temple, will not his conscience, if he is weak, be emboldened to eat things sacrificed to idols?
      11   For through thy knowledge he that is weak perisheth, the brother for whose sake Christ died.
      12   And thus, sinning against the brethren, and wounding their conscience when it is weak, ye sin against Christ.
      13   Wherefore, if meat causeth my brother to stumble, I will eat no flesh for evermore, that I cause not my brother to stumble.

1   Corinthians 10:32

      32   Give no occasions of stumbling, either to Jews, or to Greeks, or to the church of God:

Ephesians 1:7

      7   In whom we have our redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trepasses, according to the riches of his grace,

1 Timothy 1:15

      15   Faithful is the saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief:

Hebrews 11:31

      31   By faith Rahab the harlot perished not with them that were disobedient, having received the spies with peace.

Hebrews 12:28, 29

      28   Wherefore, receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us have grace, whereby we may offer service well-pleasing to God with reverence and awe:
      29   for our God is a consuming fire.
