Romams 15:4
I. The scriptures comfort the ____________.
But his delight is in the law of the Lord;
And in his law doth he meditate day and night.
For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
Unto the pure all things are pure: but unto them that are defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure; but even their mind and conscience is defiled.

And be renewed in the spirit of your mind;
I have rejoiced in the way of thy testimonies,
As much as in all riches.

Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls.
And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
III. The scriptures comfort the _____________.
And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water,
That bringeth forth his fruit in his season;
His leaf also shall not wither;
And whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.
All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
