Subject: RE: BS: Biblical text for a secular funeral
I am sorry for your loss. Here are Paul's words when he made his last good-bye to the elders of the church from the city of Ephesus:
Acts 20:33-35 3 I have coveted no man's silver, or gold, or apparel.
34 Yea, ye yourselves know, that these hands have ministered unto my necessities, and to them that were with me.
35 I have shewed you all things, how that so labouring ye ought to support the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, It is more blessed to give than to receive. KJV
