NASB | Matthew 6:25 ¶ "For this reason I say to you, do not be worried about your life, as to what you will eat or what you will drink; nor for your body, as to what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Matthew 6:25 ¶ "Therefore I tell you, stop being worried or anxious (perpetually uneasy, distracted) about your life, as to what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, as to what you will wear. Is life not more than food, and the body more than clothing? [Luke 12:22-31] |
Bible Question: Blessings to all, is it wrong to wear a Cross around your neck? |
Bible Answer: Hello Grace, It doesn't appear that the wearing of a cross would, or, would not be wrong, or, be it somehow showing, that we would be more holy; It would, however, depend entirely on the individuals condition of heart, wether it is wrong. If it were being done to mock God, it would certainly be wrong. Matt 6:25 "For this reason I say to you, do not be worried about your life, as to what you will eat or what you will drink; nor for your body, as to what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? It would seem that Jesus is telling us, to worry more about our salvation and the willingness of our hearts to follow Him, and, obey Him. God bless John THE CROSS “Still I shall rule, and my own will perform Even thro’ the sway which Satan holds on earth. Kings, emperors, and governors hold rule By me; and my own Providence performs Its pleasure here, and will perform, even through The policy whereby those rulers rule; Yea, even when most they would denounce my sway. And though to mine their kingdoms stand adverse, They shall in all their pomp and pride abide Until that hour; when, with an iron rod, I shall to pieces break them, and shall dash To fragments, as a potter’s vessel, all, To rise no more forever. Teach ye this To them and to my Church; that all may know That here no government, whatever pretext It may assume of sanctitude to gain Communion with my Church, shall to my Word Obedient be reformed till I return. Not reformation waits them; they have earned Destruction, and destruction shall be theirs. And hence, let not my followers hope to find Repose on earth; for here, till then, abides For them affliction, tribulation, toil— Not triumph; (save that which the truth attains Over error, as my kingdom still extends;) And hence, thro’ tribulation much, they pass Into the heavenly kingdom and their rest.” --Robert Wharton Landis, Professor in Danville Theological Seminary, 1870. |
