You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.

Without Excuse
For since the creation of the world God’s
invisible qualities—his eternal power and
divine nature—have been clearly seen, being
understood from what has been made, so that
men are without excuse. Romans 1:20
For it is not those who hear the law who are righteous in God’s sight, but it is those who obey the law who will be declared righteous.
Romans 2:13
(Indeed, when Gentiles, who do not have the law, do by nature things required by the law, they are a law for themselves, even though they do not have the law, since they show that the requirements of the law are written on their hearts, their consciences also bearing witness, and their thoughts now accusing, now even defending them.)
Romans 2:14,15
This will take place on the day when God will judge men’s secrets through Jesus Christ, as my gospel declares. Romans 2:16
Let God be true, and every man a liar.
Romans 3:4b
… so that every mouth may be silenced and the whole world held accountable to God.
Romans 3:19
My Life Worth Nothing To Me
Who will guard the guardians themselves?
Juvenal (l.c.55-138 CE)
“These are the times that try men’s souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives every thing its value. Heaven knows how to put a proper price upon its goods; and it would be strange indeed if so celestial an article as freedom should not be highly rated” ― The Crisis
Thomas Paine (1737-1809)
However, I consider my life worth nothing to me,
if only I may finish the race and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given me—
the task of testifying to the gospel of God’s grace.
Acts 20:24
