Proverbs 23:31-35
31) Don‘t look at the wine when it is red, When it sparkles in the cup, When it goes down smoothly:
32) At the last it bites like a snake, And poisons like a viper.
33) Your eyes will see strange things, And your mind will imagine confusing things.
34) Yes, you will be as he who lies down in the midst of the sea, Or as he who lies on top of the rigging:
35) "They hit me, and I was not hurt; They beat me, and I don‘t feel it! When will I wake up? I can do it again. I can find another."
Matthew 10:37-39
37) He who loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; and he who loves son or daughter more than me isn‘t worthy of me.
38) He who doesn‘t take his cross and follow after me, isn‘t worthy of me.
39) He who finds his life will lose it; and he who loses his life for my sake will find it.
Mark 3:31-35
31) His mother and his brothers came, and standing outside, they sent to him, calling him.
32) A multitude was sitting around him, and they told him, "Behold, your mother, your brothers, and your sisters are outside looking for you."
33) He answered them, "Who are my mother and my brothers?"
34) Looking around at those who sat around him, he said, "Behold, my mother and my brothers!
35) For whoever may do the will of God, the same is my brother, and my sister, and mother."
2 Corinthians 6:14-18
14) Don‘t be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity? Or what communion has light with darkness?
15) What agreement has Christ with Belial? Or what portion has a believer with an unbeliever?
16) What agreement has a temple of God with idols? For you are a temple of the living God. Even as God said, "I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they will be my people."
17) Therefore, "‘Come out from among them, And be separate,‘ says the Lord, ‘Touch no unclean thing. I will receive you.
18) I will be to you a Father. You will be to me sons and daughters,‘ says the Lord Almighty."
Ephesians 5:1-5
1) Be therefore imitators of God, as beloved children.
2) Walk in love, even as Christ also loved you, and gave himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling fragrance.
3) But sexual immorality, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not even be mentioned among you, as becomes saints;
4) nor filthiness, nor foolish talking, or jesting, which are not appropriate; but rather giving of thanks.
5) Know this for sure, that no sexually immoral person, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God.
Ephesians 5:15-18
15) Therefore watch carefully how you walk, not as unwise, but as wise;
16) redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
17) Therefore don‘t be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.
18) Don‘t be drunken with wine, in which is an abandoned life, but be filled with the Spirit,
