- So we can say with confidence,
“The Lord is my helper;
I will not be afraid.
What can anyone do to me?” - So we do not lose heart. Even though our outer nature is wasting away, our inner nature is being renewed day by day.
- But our citizenship is in heaven, and it is from there that we are expecting a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ.
- In the path of your judgments,
O Lord, we wait for you;
your name and your renown
are the soul's desire. - No one has ever seen God; if we love one another, God lives in us, and his love is perfected in us.
- And we are witnesses to these things, and so is the Holy Spirit whom God has given to those who obey him.
- See what love the Father has given us, that we should be called children of God; and that is what we are. The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him.
- For since we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so, through Jesus, God will bring with him those who have died.
- Let us therefore approach the throne of grace with boldness, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.
- This is the message we have heard from him and proclaim to you, that God is light and in him there is no darkness at all.
- The commandment we have from him is this: those who love God must love their brothers and sisters also.
- In this is love, not that we loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the atoning sacrifice for our sins.
- If we confess our sins, he who is faithful and just will forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
- For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.
- There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among mortals by which we must be saved.
- So then, whenever we have an opportunity, let us work for the good of all, and especially for those of the family of faith.
- In fulfillment of his own purpose he gave us birth by the word of truth, so that we would become a kind of first fruits of his creatures.
- We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, who are called according to his purpose.
- And not only that, but we also boast in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope.
- Can anyone withhold the water for baptizing these people who have received the Holy Spirit just as we have?
- God's love was revealed among us in this way: God sent his only Son into the world so that we might live through him.
- Surely he has borne our infirmities
and carried our diseases;
yet we accounted him stricken,
struck down by God, and afflicted. - In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace.
- So we have known and believe the love that God has for us.
God is love, and those who abide in love abide in God, and God abides in them. - The Almighty —we cannot find him;
he is great in power and justice,
and abundant righteousness he will not violate.
