- He made him who did not know sin to be sin for our sake, so that through him we might become the righteousness of God.
- I can do all things in him who strengthens me.
- And thus we can have confidence in him
that if we ask anything
that is in accordance with his will,
he hears us. - God abides in anyone who acknowledges
that Jesus is the Son of God,
and that person abides in God. - Jesus replied,
“This is the work of God:
to believe in the one whom he has sent.” - In Christ
and through his blood
we have redemption
and the forgiveness of our sins.
In accord with the riches of his grace. - But for that very reason I was treated mercifully, so that in me Jesus Christ might exhibit his inexhaustible patience, making me an example for those who would come to believe in him for eternal life.
- But as for you,
the anointing you received from him
remains in you,
and therefore you do not need anyone
to teach you.
This same anointing
teaches you everything
and is true and not false,
so abide in him just as he taught you. - For it has been granted you not only to believe in Christ but also to suffer for him.
- Although you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and are filled with a joy that is indescribable and glorious. For you are achieving the goal of your faith, that is, the salvation of your souls.
- Whoever believes in me,
as Scripture has said,
‘Streams of living water
shall flow from within him.’ - You are from your father, the devil,
and you choose to carry out your father’s desires.

and he does not abide by the truth,
for there is no truth in him.
When he lies,
he speaks in accord with his own nature,
for he is a liar
and the father of lies. - Beloved,
we are God’s children now.
What we shall be
has not yet been revealed.
However, we do know that when he appears
we shall be like him,
for we shall see him as he really is.
Everyone who has this hope in him
keeps himself pure,
just as he is pure. - We also know
that the Son of God has come
and given us understanding
so that we can know the one who is true.
And we are in the one who is true,
since we are in his Son Jesus Christ.
He is the true God and eternal life. - Then Jesus said to those Jews who did believe in him,
“If you remain faithful to my word,
you will truly be my disciples.
You will know the truth,
and the truth will set you free.” - But whoever drinks the water that I will give him
will never be thirsty.
The water that I will give him
will become a spring of water within him
welling up to eternal life. - For we believe that Jesus died and rose again, and so too do we believe that God will bring forth with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him.
- And just as no human being comprehends any person’s innermost being except the person’s own spirit within him, so also no one comprehends what pertains to God except the Spirit of God.
- The proud man’s heart is not upright,
but the righteous man will live
because of his faith. - In God alone be at rest, O my soul;
it is from him that my hope comes. - For from him and through him and for him are all things. To him be glory forever. Amen.
- A good man produces good from the store of goodness in his heart, whereas an evil man produces evil from the store of evil within him. For the mouth speaks from the abundance of the heart.

to all who call out to him sincerely. - The Lord is with you while you are with him. If you seek him, he will permit you to find him, but if you abandon him, he will abandon you.
