- Some of us are Jews, some are Gentiles, some are slaves, and some are free. But we have all been baptized into one body by one Spirit, and we all share the same Spirit.
- For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places.
- So if you sinful people know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him.
- Because one person disobeyed God, many became sinners. But because one other person obeyed God, many will be made righteous.
- Evil people get rich for the moment,
but the reward of the godly will last. - No one is holy like the Lord!
There is no one besides you;
there is no Rock like our God. - Their ways are futile and foolish.
They cut down a tree, and a craftsman carves an idol.
They decorate it with gold and silver
and then fasten it securely with hammer and nails
so it won’t fall over.
Their gods are like
helpless scarecrows in a cucumber field!
They cannot speak,
and they need to be carried because they cannot walk.
Do not be afraid of such gods,
for they can neither harm you nor do you any good. - The human body has many parts, but the many parts make up one whole body. So it is with the body of Christ.
- No one has ever seen God. But if we love each other, God lives in us, and his love is brought to full expression in us.
- The Lord keeps you from all harm
and watches over your life.
The Lord keeps watch over you as you come and go,
both now and forever. - Owe nothing to anyone—except for your obligation to love one another. If you love your neighbor, you will fulfill the requirements of God’s law.
- Just as our bodies have many parts and each part has a special function, so it is with Christ’s body. We are many parts of one body, and we all belong to each other.
- And the Lord will be king over all the earth. On that day there will be one Lord—his name alone will be worshiped.
- You intended to harm me, but God intended it all for good. He brought me to this position so I could save the lives of many people.
- Love each other with genuine affection, and take delight in honoring each other.
- Don’t be fooled by those who say such things, for “bad company corrupts good character.”
- Instead, be kind to each other, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, just as God through Christ has forgiven you.
- Two people are better off than one, for they can help each other succeed.
- Your love for one another will prove to the world that you are my disciples.
- In the same way, some think one day is more holy than another day, while others think every day is alike. You should each be fully convinced that whichever day you choose is acceptable.
- I give them eternal life, and they will never perish. No one can snatch them away from me, for my Father has given them to me, and he is more powerful than anyone else. No one can snatch them from the Father’s hand. The Father and I are one.
- No one has ever seen God. But the unique One, who is himself God, is near to the Father’s heart. He has revealed God to us.
- But for us,
There is one God, the Father,
by whom all things were created,
and for whom we live.
And there is one Lord, Jesus Christ,
through whom all things were created,
and through whom we live. - So now I am giving you a new commandment: Love each other. Just as I have loved you, you should love each other.
- Don’t lie to each other, for you have stripped off your old sinful nature and all its wicked deeds. Put on your new nature, and be renewed as you learn to know your Creator and become like him.
