- Now I would remind you, brothers and sisters, of the good news that I proclaimed to you, which you in turn received, in which also you stand, through which also you are being saved, if you hold firmly to the message that I proclaimed to you—unless you have come to believe in vain.
- For I handed on to you as of first importance what I in turn had received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the scriptures, and that he was buried, and that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the scriptures.
- For since death came through a human being, the resurrection of the dead has also come through a human being.
- For as all die in Adam, so all will be made alive in Christ.
- Do not be deceived:
“Bad company ruins good morals.” - Come to a sober and right mind, and sin no more; for some people have no knowledge of God. I say this to your shame.
- The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law.
- But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
- Therefore, my beloved, be steadfast, immovable, always excelling in the work of the Lord, because you know that in the Lord your labor is not in vain.
Finally, beloved, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is pleasing, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence and if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things. Jesus answered him, “Those who love me will keep my word, and my Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them.”Next verse!With image
