- For the love of Christ urges us forward, once we conclude that one has died for all, and therefore all have died. And he died for all, so that those who live might no longer live for themselves, but for him who for their sakes died and was raised to life.
- Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over, will be poured into your lap. The measure that you use for others will be used to measure you.
- Who indeed conquers the world
except the one who believes
that Jesus is the Son of God? - Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercy and the God of all consolation. He consoles us in all our afflictions and thereby enables us to console others in their tribulations, offering them the consolation with which we ourselves are consoled by God.
- If you refuse to listen to me
and do not sincerely resolve
to give glory to my name,
says the Lord of hosts,
I will send a curse on you,
and I will turn your blessings into a curse.
Indeed, I have already done so
because you have not heeded my warning. - Let no one regard you with contempt because of your youth, but serve as an example to the believers in your speech and conduct, in your love, your faith, and your purity.
- And now, brethren, I want to remind you of the gospel I proclaimed to you, which you received and in which you stand firm. Through it you are also being saved, provided that you are holding fast to what I proclaimed to you. If not, then you have believed in vain.
- Does God give you the Spirit and work mighty deeds among you because you have kept the Law or because you believed what you have heard?
- Then I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and in the sea, and all that is in them, saying:
“To the one seated on the throne
and to the Lamb
be blessing and honor and glory and might
forever and ever.” - Shun evil and do good;
seek peace and pursue it. - The reward of humility and fear of the Lord
is wealth, honor, and life. - And when he comes,
he will prove the world wrong
about sin and righteousness and judgment. - To our God and Father be glory forever and ever. Amen.
- “I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, “the one who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty.”
- You call me ‘Teacher’ and ‘Lord,’
and rightly so,
for that is what I am. - About midnight, Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns of praise to God, and the prisoners were listening to them.
- When you call out to me and come forth and pray to me, I will listen to you.
- And the Word became flesh
and dwelt among us.
And we saw his glory,
the glory as of the Father’s only Son,
full of grace and truth. - I will extol you, my God and King;
I will bless your name forever and ever. - Let us examine and test our ways
and return to the Lord. - Call to me and I will answer you and reveal to you great and mysterious secrets about which you are unaware.
- We have sinned and done what is wrong, we have acted wickedly and rebelled, we have rejected your commandments and your laws.
- Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
- God blessed them and told them, “Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth; subdue it and have dominion over the fish of the seas and over the birds of the air and over every living creature that moves upon the earth.”
- Whoever feeds upon my flesh and drinks my blood
dwells in me and I dwell in him.
