Every way of a man is right in his own eyes: but the Lord pondereth the hearts.
I do not this for your sakes, O house of Israel, but for Mine holy name's sake, which ye have profaned.
Not for filthy lucre.
Out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies.
Will a lion roar in the forest, hen he hath no prey?
Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss.
The character of a people may be ruined by charity.
