for the first things have passed away.” - So if anyone is in Christ, there is a new creation: everything old has passed away; see, everything has become new!

All these evil things come from within, and they defile a person.”

I the Lord test the mind

to give to all according to their ways,
according to the fruit of their doings. - And God is able to provide you with every blessing in abundance, so that by always having enough of everything, you may share abundantly in every good work.
