- You did not choose me.
Rather, I chose you.
And I appointed you
to go out and bear fruit,
fruit that will remain,
so that the Father may give you
whatever you ask him in my name. - I give you a new commandment:
love one another.
Just as I have loved you,
so you should also love one another. - So if I, your Lord and Teacher,
have washed your feet,
you also should wash one another’s feet. - They answered, “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, and so too will your household.”
- Honor your father and your mother so that your days may be lengthened in the land that the Lord your God, will give you.
- For the desires of the flesh are opposed to the Spirit, and those of the Spirit are opposed to the flesh. They are in conflict with one another, so that you cannot do what you want.
- Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence so that we may receive mercy and find grace when we are in need of help.
- But according to Scripture all things have been confined under sin, so that through faith in Jesus Christ what was promised might be given to those who believe.
- No one after lighting a lamp covers it with a pot or places it under a bed. Rather he places it on a lampstand so that those who enter may see the light.
- So do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will take care of itself. Each day has enough troubles of its own.
- He alone is my rock and my salvation,
my fortress, so that I stand unshaken. - For it is by grace that you have been saved through faith. This has not come from you but from the gift of God. It does not come from works, so that no one can boast.
- Let no one deceive you in any way.
That Day cannot come before the final rebellion occurs and the lawless one is revealed, the son of destruction. He is the adversary who sets himself in opposition to, and exalts himself above, every so-called god or object of worship, and who even seats himself in the temple of God, declaring himself to be God. - So I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.
- I have told you this
so that in me you may be in peace.
In the world
you will endure suffering.
But take courage!
I have overcome the world. - In the same way, I tell you, there is rejoicing among the angels of God over one sinner who repents.
- But from the very beginning of creation, ‘God made them male and female.’ ‘That is why a man leaves his father and mother and is joined to his wife, and the two become one flesh.’ And so they are no longer two but one flesh. Therefore, what God has joined together, let no one separate.
- He himself bore our sins in his body on the cross, so that we might die to sin and live in righteousness. By his wounds you have been healed.
- If I have the gift of prophecy
and the ability to understand all mysteries and all knowledge,
and have all the faith necessary to move mountains,
but do not have love,
I am nothing. - Therefore, put on the armor of God, so that you will be able to hold fast on the evil day and to hold your ground with all your strength.
- And God is able to enrich you with an abundance of every grace, so that, with all of your needs provided for, you may be able to produce a surplus of good works.
- He is the head of the body,
that is, the Church.
He is the beginning,
the firstborn from the dead,
so that in every way
he should be supreme. - He alone is my rock and my salvation,
my fortress, so that I stand ever unshaken. - When riches increase,
so do those who are eager to accumulate them,
and those who have accumulated them must remain content
simply to feast their eyes on them. - It was for this purpose that he called you through our gospel so that you might come to share in the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.
