Matthew 24:37-39 (KJV)

³⁷But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
³⁸For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,
³⁹And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

Genesis 6:8 (KJV)

⁸But Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord.

Genesis 6:17-18 (KJV)

¹⁷And, behold, I, even I, do bring a flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein is the breath of life, from under heaven; and every thing that is in the earth shall die.
¹⁸But with thee will I establish my covenant; and thou shalt come into the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy sons’ wives with thee.

Hebrews 11:1 (KJV)

¹ Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

Hebrews 11:7 (KJV)

⁷By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith.

Genesis 6:22 (KJV)

²²Thus did Noah; according to all that God commanded him, so did he.

Proverbs 22:6 (KJV)

⁶Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.

Hebrews 11:7 (KJV)

Exodus 20:12 (KJV)

¹²Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.

John 5:19 (KJV)

¹⁹Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise.

1 Corinthians 11:1 (KJV)

¹ Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ.

Philippians 4:9 (KJV)

⁹Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you.

Hebrews 13:17 (KJV)

¹⁷Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit yourselves: for they watch for your souls, as they that must give account, that they may do it with joy, and not with grief: for that is unprofitable for you.

Ephesians 4:11-13 (KJV)

¹¹And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;
¹²For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:
¹³Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:

Hebrews 11:1 (KJV)

¹ Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 (KJV)

¹⁶For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
¹⁷Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

1 Thessalonians 5:2 (KJV)

²For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.

Proverbs 22:6 (KJV)

⁶Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.

Proverbs 13:24 (KJV)

²⁴He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.

Proverbs 23:13-14 (NKJV)

¹³Do not withhold correction from a child, For if you beat him with a rod, he will not die.
¹⁴You shall beat him with a rod, And deliver his soul from hell.

Hebrews 12:5-11 (NKJV)

⁵And you have forgotten the exhortation which speaks to you as to sons:
“My son, do not despise the chastening of the Lord,
Nor be discouraged when you are rebuked by Him;
⁶For whom the Lord loves He chastens, And scourges every son whom He receives.”
⁷If you endure chastening, God deals with you as with sons; for what son is there whom a father does not chasten?
⁸But if you are without chastening, of which all have become partakers, then you are illegitimate and not sons.
⁹Furthermore, we have had human fathers who corrected us, and we paid them respect. Shall we not much more readily be in subjection to the Father of spirits and live?
¹⁰For they indeed for a few days chastened us as seemed best to them, but He for our profit, that we may be partakers of His holiness.
¹¹Now no chastening seems to be joyful for the present, but painful; nevertheless, afterward it yields the peaceable fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it.

Proverbs 29:17 (NLT)

¹⁷Discipline your children, and they will give you peace of mind and will make your heart glad.

Psalm 112:1-2 (NIV)

¹Praise the Lord. Blessed are those who fear the Lord, who find great delight in his commands.
²Their children will be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright will be blessed.

Proverbs 20:7 (NKJV)

⁷The righteous man walks in his integrity; His children are blessed after him.

Deuteronomy 4:9 (NLT)

⁹“But watch out! Be careful never to forget what you yourself have seen. Do not let these memories escape from your mind as long as you live! And be sure to pass them on to your children and grandchildren.

Deuteronomy 4:40 (NLT)

⁴⁰If you obey all the decrees and commands I am giving you today, all will be well with you and your children. I am giving you these instructions so you will enjoy a long life in the land the Lord your God is giving you for all time.”

Ephesians 6:4 (NLT)

⁴Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger by the way you treat them. Rather, bring them up with the discipline and instruction that comes from the Lord.

Deuteronomy 6:6-9 (KJV)

⁶And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart:
⁷And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.
⁸And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thine hand, and they shall be as frontlets between thine eyes.
⁹And thou shalt write them upon the posts of thy house, and on thy gates.

2 Timothy 3:14-16 (NLT)

¹⁴But you must remain faithful to the things you have been taught. You know they are true, for you know you can trust those who taught you.
¹⁵You have been taught the holy Scriptures from childhood, and they have given you the wisdom to receive the salvation that comes by trusting in Christ Jesus.
¹⁶All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right.
