- And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in the one body. And be thankful.
- Very truly, I tell you, whoever receives one whom I send receives me; and whoever receives me receives him who sent me.
- Who, though he was in the form of God,
did not regard equality with God
as something to be exploited,
but emptied himself,
taking the form of a slave,
being born in human likeness.
And being found in human form,
he humbled himself
and became obedient to the point of death—
even death on a cross. - For the Son of Man came to seek out and to save the lost.
- For as in one body we have many members, and not all the members have the same function, so we, who are many, are one body in Christ, and individually we are members one of another.

- I am the gate. Whoever enters by me will be saved, and will come in and go out and find pasture.
- If you love me, you will keep my commandments.
- For a child has been born for us,
a son given to us;
authority rests upon his shoulders;
and he is named
Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. - He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” Simon Peter answered, “You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God.”
- Let it be known to you therefore, my brothers, that through this man forgiveness of sins is proclaimed to you; by this Jesus everyone who believes is set free from all those sins from which you could not be freed by the law of Moses.
- But God, who is rich in mercy, out of the great love with which he loved us even when we were dead through our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ —by grace you have been saved—.
- Jesus answered them, “This is the work of God, that you believe in him whom he has sent.”
- Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life.
- And this is eternal life, that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent.
- And he said to them, “Go into all the world and proclaim the good news to the whole creation.”
- Jesus said to him, “Have you believed because you have seen me? Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have come to believe.”

- For in him the whole fullness of deity dwells bodily, and you have come to fullness in him, who is the head of every ruler and authority.
- Therefore God also highly exalted him
and gave him the name
that is above every name,
so that at the name of Jesus
every knee should bend,
in heaven and on earth and under the earth. - And the Word became flesh and lived among us, and we have seen his glory, the glory as of a father's only son, full of grace and truth.
