The Lord then answered him and said, "Hypocrite! Does not each one of you on the Sabbath loose his ox or donkey from the stall, and lead it away to water it?

- Psalm 95:7-9
For He is our God,
And we are the people of His pasture,
And the sheep of His hand. Today, if you will hear His voice:

As in the day of trial in the wilderness,
When your fathers tested Me;
They tried Me, though they saw My work.

- Hebrews 10:26-30
For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and fiery indignation which will devour the adversaries.

Of how much worse punishment, do you suppose, will he be thought worthy who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, counted the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified a common thing, and insulted the Spirit of grace? For we know Him who said, "Vengeance is Mine, I will repay," says the Lord. And again, "The LORD will judge His people."
- 1 John 2:4-6
He who says, "I know Him," and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. But whoever keeps His word, truly the love of God is perfected in him. By this we know that we are in Him. He who says he abides in Him ought himself also to walk just as He walked.

- Daniel 7:25
He shall speak pompous words against the Most High,
Shall persecute the saints of the Most High,

For a time and times and half a time.

So speak and so do as those who will be judged by the law of liberty.
