"The Lord is merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love." Psalm 103:8

"Make a joyful noise to the LORD, all the earth! Serve the LORD with gladness! Come into his presence with singing! Know that the LORD, he is God! It is he who made us, and we are his; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. Enter his gates with thanksgiving, and his courts with praise! Give thanks to him; bless his name! For the LORD is good; his steadfast love endures forever, and his faithfulness to all generations." Psalm 100:1-5

"Oh give thanks to the Lord; call upon his name; make known his deeds among the peoples! Sing to him, sing praises to him; tell of all his wondrous works! Glory in his holy name; let the hearts of those who seek the Lord rejoice!" Psalm 105:1-3

"The steps of a man are established by the Lord, when he delights in his way; though he fall, he shall not be cast headlong, for the LORD upholds his hand." Psalm 37:23-24

With respect, all I am seeing is a black box with 'the uploaded image is unavailable'. Lots of them.

I love seeing verses, but maybe copy the text and reference?

My apologies. I was unaware of any difficulties. Here is the text:

"The steps of a man are established by the LORD, when he delights in his way; though he fall, he shall not be cast headlong, for the LORD upholds his hand."
Psalm 37:23-24

Was that the only one or were the problems with others?

I did not see any of the verses, just black boxes. Thought it was the Gospel according to the NSA

I'm correcting all of them as quickly as I can.

For some reason, pics and videos not only don't always go through, sometimes only some people can see them.

Thanks for the Psalm, those are always among my favorites since they are good Life guides.

"Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change." James 1:17

"Why do the nations rage and the peoples plot in vain? The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD and against his Anointed, saying, 'Let us burst their bonds apart and cast away their cords from us.' He who sits in the heavens laughs; the Lord holds them in derision." Psalm 2:1-4

I wonder how this squares with the works don't matter philosophy

It's a good question. I think that scripturally, it relates to the two kinds of judgment: everyone will be judged by their actions. But only those whose name is not in the Book of Life will be cast into the lake of fire. Salvation does not come from actions because no one could ever earn salvation. If we could save ourselves, we have no reason for a Savior.

He turned around, looked at them, and called down a curse on them in the name of the Lord. Then two bears came out of the woods and mauled forty-two of the boys."
