What is your faviorte Bible verse and why?
14 (for when Gentiles that have not the law do by nature the things of the law, these, not having the law, are the law unto themselves;
15 in that they show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience bearing witness therewith, and their thoughts one with another accusing or else excusing [them]);
16 in the day when God shall judge the secrets of men, according to my gospel, by Jesus Christ.

I like this passage because it imples that non- Christians who know nothing of CHrist, but do what Christ commanded (because they have a conscience and a good heart), will be considered just on the day of judgment.
Matt 7:21-23 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
I think this gets to the heart of the message brought by Jesus. Unfortunately it seems the vast majority of "Christians" choose not to heed His warning.

I tried it on my girlfriends leg and it worked. . . .
Whoever said "the bible was conceived by the imagination of man for the benefit of man". . . . They were right.

2 of my favorites...
Jer 33:3
3 'Call to Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know.'
(NKJ)
This one because walking with God is an adventure...
Jer 20:9
" But His word was in my heart like a burning fire shut up in my bones; I was weary of holding it back, and I could not.
(NKJ)
...and this one because this is what the word of God does to a lover of God and His Son Jesus Christ...

"1After these things the word of the LORD came unto Abram in a
vision, saying, Fear not, Abram: I am thy shield, and thy exceeding
great reward. "
This is my favorite, it is one of the first that ever really stood out to
me while I was reading it. My favorite part of this verse is where God
shares that God is our very great reward, nothing God has made for
us is greater than God Himself.
Not all translations say like the KJV.

Because here Jesus clearly declare that the father is the only true GOD, he is not GOD, and he is just a massenger sent by him.
