AIM Accountable Integrity Matters

Psalm 131:1-3 KJVS
LORD, my heart is not haughty, nor mine eyes lofty: neither do I exercise myself in great matters, or in things too high for me. [2] Surely I have behaved and quieted myself, as a child that is weaned of his mother: my soul is even as a weaned child. [3] Let Israel hope in the LORD from henceforth and for ever.

2 Corinthians 1:13 LSB
For we write nothing else to you than what you read and
understand, and I hope you will understand until the end

2 Thessalonians 2:1-13 ESV
Now concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and
our being gathered together to him, we ask you, brothers,
[2] not to be quickly shaken in mind or alarmed, either by
a spirit or a spoken word, or a letter seeming to be from us,
to the effect that the day of the Lord has come. [3] Let no
one deceive you in any way. For that day will not come,
unless the rebellion comes first, and the man of lawlessness
is revealed, the son of destruction, [4] who opposes and |
exalts himself against every so-called god or object of
worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God,
proclaiming himself to be God. [5] Do you not remember
that when I was still with you I told you these things?
[6] And you know what is restraining him now so that
he may be revealed in his time. [7] For the mystery of
lawlessness is already at work. Only he who now
restrains it will do so until he is out of the way.
[8] And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the
Lord Jesus will kill with the breath of his mouth and
bring to nothing by the appearance of his coming.
[9] The coming of the lawless one is by the activity of
Satan with all power and false signs and wonders,
[10] and with all wicked deception for those who are
perishing, because they refused to love the truth and
so be saved. [11] Therefore God sends them a strong
delusion, so that they may believe what is false,
[12] in order that all may be condemned who did not
believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
[13] But we ought always to give thanks to God for
you, brothers beloved by the Lord, because God
chose you as the firstfruits to be saved, through
sanctification by the Spirit and belief in the truth.

ACCOUNT'ABLE, a.
1.  Liable to be called to account; answerable to a superior.
Every man is accountable to God for his conduct.
2.  Subject to pay, or make good, in case of loss.  A sheriff
is accountable, as bailiff and receiver of goods.

of the U.States guaranties to each state the integrity of its
territories.  The contracting parties guarantied the integrity
of the empire.
2.  The entire, unimpaired state of any thing, particularly
of the mind; moral soundness or purity; incorruptness;
uprightness; honesty.  Integrity comprehends the whole
moral character, but has a special reference to uprightness
in mutual dealings, transfers of property,and agencies
for others.  The moral grandeur of independent integrity is
the sublimest thing in nature, before which the pomp of
eastern magnificence and the splendor of conquest are
odious as well as perishable.
3.  Purity; genuine, unadulterated, unimpaired state; as
the integrity of language.

MATTER [MAT'TER, n. [L. materia; Heb. to measure; L. metior.]
1.  Substance excreted from living animal bodies; that
which is thrown our of discharged in a tumor,boil or abscess;
pus; purulent substance collected in an abscess, the effect
of suppuration more or less perfect; as digested matter;
sanious matter.
2.  Body; substance extended; that which is visible or
tangible; as earth, wood, stone, air, vapor, water.
3.  In a more general and philosophic sense, the
substance of which all bodies are composed; the
substratum of sensible qualities, though the parts
composing the substratum may not be visible or tangible.
Matter is usually divided by philosophical writers into
four kinds or classes; solid, liquid; aeriform, and
imponderable.  Solid substances are those whose parts
firmly cohere and resist impression, as wood or stone;
liquids have free motion among their parts, and easily
yield to impression, as water and wine.  Aeriform
substances are elastic fluids, called vapors and gases,
as air and oxygen gas.  The imponderable substances
are destitute of weight, as light, caloric, electricity,
and magnetism.
4.  Subject; thing treated; that about which we write |
or speak; that which employs thought or excites
emotion; as, this is matter of praise, of gratitude,
or of astonishment.
 Son of God, Savior of men, thy name
 Shall be the copious matter of my song.
5.  The very thing supposed or intended.
 He grants the deluge to have come so very
near the matter, that few escaped.
6.  Affair; business; event; thing; course of things.  
Matters have succeeded well thus far; observe how
matters stand; thus the matter rests at present;
thus the matter ended. To help the matter,the
alchimists call in many vanities from astrology.
 Some young female seems to have carried matters
so far, that she is ripe for asking advice.
7.  Cause of any event, as of any disturbance, of a
disease, or of a difficulty.  When a moving machine
stops suddenly, we ask, what is the matter?  When a
person is ill, we ask, what is the matter?  When a
tumult or quarrel takes place, we ask, what is the matter?
8.  Subject of complaint; suit; demand.

champions--
 Every great matter they shall bring to thee, but every
small matter they shall judge-- Ex.18.

things into view.  This phrase is now obsolete; but in
lieu of it, we sometimes use, upon the whole matter.
 Waller, with Sir William Balfour, exceeded in horse,
but were, upon the whole matter, equal in foot.
Matter of record, that which is recorded, or
which may be proved by record.
MAT'TER, v.i.  To be of importance; to import;
