- This is the message we heard from Jesus and now declare to you: God is light, and there is no darkness in him at all.
- So Christ has truly set us free. Now make sure that you stay free, and don’t get tied up again in slavery to the law.
- Stay alert! Watch out for your great enemy, the devil. He prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour.
- Those who love money will never have enough. How meaningless to think that wealth brings true happiness!
- In the same way, husbands ought to love their wives as they love their own bodies. For a man who loves his wife actually shows love for himself.
- Don’t misunderstand why I have come. I did not come to abolish the law of Moses or the writings of the prophets. No, I came to accomplish their purpose.
- As the Scriptures say, “A man leaves his father and mother and is joined to his wife, and the two are united into one.”
- For if you are trying to make yourselves right with God by keeping the law, you have been cut off from Christ! You have fallen away from God’s grace.
- For God made Christ, who never sinned, to be the offering for our sin, so that we could be made right with God through Christ.
- When you make a promise to God, don’t delay in following through, for God takes no pleasure in fools. Keep all the promises you make to him.
- You must not misuse the name of the Lord your God. The Lord will not let you go unpunished if you misuse his name.
- God blesses you when people mock you and persecute you and lie about you and say all sorts of evil things against you because you are my followers.
- Because one person disobeyed God, many became sinners. But because one other person obeyed God, many will be made righteous.
- So be careful how you live. Don’t live like fools, but like those who are wise. Make the most of every opportunity in these evil days.
- Yes, I am the vine; you are the branches. Those who remain in me, and I in them, will produce much fruit. For apart from me you can do nothing.
- Live a life filled with love, following the example of Christ. He loved us and offered himself as a sacrifice for us, a pleasing aroma to God.

- I have written this to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know you have eternal life.
- Don’t love money; be satisfied with what you have. For God has said,
“I will never fail you.
I will never abandon you.” - And all of this is a gift from God, who brought us back to himself through Christ. And God has given us this task of reconciling people to him.
- Always be joyful. Never stop praying. Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you who belong to Christ Jesus.
- The more you have, the more people come to help you spend it. So what good is wealth—except perhaps to watch it slip through your fingers!
- For when we place our faith in Christ Jesus, there is no benefit in being circumcised or being uncircumcised. What is important is faith expressing itself in love.
- For his anger lasts only a moment,
but his favor lasts a lifetime!
Weeping may last through the night,
but joy comes with the morning.
