Good question: This has helped me a lot. Hebrews 6:11-12 "And we desire that each one of you show the same diligence to the full assurance of hope until the end that you do not become sluggish but imitate those who through faith and patience inherit the promises.

I like Romans10:13 "Whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved." That means anyone and everyone.

This is the one about how we should treat everyone else.
In everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the prophets.
--Matthew 7:12 New International Version

Matthew 24;7-14 6 And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars; see that you are not alarmed; for this must take place, but the end is not yet. 7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines and earthquakes in various places: 8 all this is but the beginning of the birth-pangs. 9 "Then they will deliver you up to tribulation, and put you to death; and you will be hated by all nations for my name's sake. 10 And then many will fall away, and betray one another, and hate one another. 11 And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray. 12 And because wickedness is multiplied, most men's love will grow cold. 13 But he who endures to the end will be saved. 14 And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached throughout the whole world, as a testimony to all nations; and then the end will come.
How can anyone read this and know what is going on in the world today not believe that Jesus's words are true.

How can anyone read this and know what is going on in the world today not believe that Jesus's words are true. I don't think it is for us to understand everything. Jesus asks us to believe. Some people are too proud to admit that they need someone else's help so they chose not to believe anything. It is through faith you are saved.

I have set the LORD always before me: because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved. Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth: my flesh also shall rest in hope. Psalm 16:8,9 / KJV

Let those who love the Lord hate evil, for he guards the lives of his faithful ones and delivers them from the hand of the wicked. --Psalm 97:10 New International Version
THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY'S VERSE... Hate -- what a bold and powerful word. We must not hate people. We must hate evil. It's a tough combination to pull off, but absolutely vital. Evil is here because of the Evil One -- the champion of hate, lies, and death. So when evil rears its ugly head, let's be courageous and oppose Satan and his work. In the process, let's pray for those trapped in its tentacles, even if they consider us enemies.
MY PRAYER... Almighty God, make my heart pained by the evil in my world. Give me a holy revulsion to things opposed to your will and character. Yet Father, just as You redeemed me by grace, and rescued me while a captive to sin, give me courage to care about those who are in the Evil One's embrace. Through my Savior I pray. Amen.

"I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me." (Phil. 4:13)
"My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus." (Phil. 4:19)
"The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want." (Psa. 23:1)
"with his stripes we are healed." (Isa. 53:5b; 1Pet. 2:24)
"greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world." (1 John 4:4)
"I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the LORD." (Psa. 118:17)
These help me and my family. We PROCLAIM these Promises every day during the end of our family prayer (and also whenever we need).
I recommend a small book by Derek Prince to all - "Power of Proclamation" for your daily successful Christian life.

'Matthew 24;7-14 6 And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars; see that you are not alarmed; for this must take place, but the end is not yet. 7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines and earthquakes in various places: 8 all this is but the beginning of the birth-pangs. 9 "Then they will deliver you up to tribulation, and put you to death; and you will be hated by all nations for my name's sake. 10 And then many will fall away, and betray one another, and hate one another. 11 And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray. 12 And because wickedness is multiplied, most men's love will grow cold. 13 But he who endures to the end will be saved. 14 And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached throughout the whole world, as a testimony to all nations; and then the end will come.
How can anyone read this and know what is going on in the world today not believe that Jesus's words are true. '
Thing is Jesus' words are true so many times, just look at the time of the crusades. All non catholic countries hated spain then and there was a lot of earthquakes, famines then too.
Or the time of vesuvias erupting when all hands were turned on the roman empire. This kind of things just repeats and repeats unfortunately
