Hello beloveds,
Sending out much love and blessings in Jesus Name to you all. Let's get busy and lets get serious again with another hot topic - self-control.  The scriptures are below. ;-) 

Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals, nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers,, will inherit the kingdom of God. Such were some of you; but you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lords Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God.   ~1 Corinthians 6:9-11

For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world; looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ; who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.   ~Titus 2:11-14

For you have been called for this purpose, since Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example for you to follow in His steps, Who committed no sin, nor was any deceit found in His mouth; and while being reviled, He did not revile in return; while suffering, He uttered no threats, but kept entrusting Himself to Him who judges righteously.     ~1 Peter 2:21-23

Whoever has no rule over his own spirit is like a city broken down, without walls.    ~Proverbs 25:28

But also for this very reason, giving all diligence, andd to your faith virtue, to virtue knowledge, to perseverance godliness, to godliness brotherly kindness, and to brotherly kindness love. For if these things are yours and abound, you will be neither barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.    ~2 Peter 1:5-8

So dear brothers and sisters, you have no obligation whatsoever to do what your sinful nature urges you to do. For if you keep on following it, you will perish. But if through the power of the Holy Spirit you turn from it and its evil deeds you will live.    ~Romans 8:12-13

Let your gentleness be known to all men. The Lord is at hand.   ~Philippians 4:5
