1 Corinthians 6:19

I will dwell among the children of Israel, and will be their God.

I heard a loud voice out of heaven saying, “Behold, God’s dwelling is with people, and he will dwell with them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be with them as their God.

Then they will be my people, and I will be their God.

I will walk among you, and will be your God, and you will be my people.

“For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel. After those days,” says the Lord; “I will put my laws into their mind, I will also write them on their heart. I will be their God, and they will be my people.

that they may walk in my statutes, and keep my ordinances, and do them. They will be my people, and I will be their God.

I have been crucified with Christ, and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. That life which I now live in the flesh, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself up for me.

“But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days,” says Yahweh: “I will put my law in their inward parts, and I will write it in their heart. I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

I will sow her to me in the earth; and I will have mercy on her who had not obtained mercy; and I will tell those who were not my people, ‘You are my people;’ and they will say, ‘My God!’ ”

“When the Counselor has come, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth, who proceeds from the Father, he will testify about me.

However when he, the Spirit of truth, has come, he will guide you into all truth, for he will not speak from himself; but whatever he hears, he will speak. He will declare to you things that are coming.

He who overcomes, I will give him these things. I will be his God, and he will be my son.

I will give them a heart to know me, that I am Yahweh. They will be my people, and I will be their God; for they will return to me with their whole heart.

and I will bring them, and they will dwell within Jerusalem; and they will be my people, and I will be their God, in truth and in righteousness.”

If then you were raised together with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated on the right hand of God.

I will pray to the Father, and he will give you another Counselor, that he may be with you forever:

Don’t you know that you are a temple of God, and that God’s Spirit lives in you?

Whatever you do, in word or in deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father, through him.

In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.

I will bring the third part into the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will test them like gold is tested. They will call on my name, and I will hear them. I will say, ‘It is my people;’ and they will say, ‘Yahweh is my God.’ ”

Nevertheless I tell you the truth: It is to your advantage that I go away, for if I don’t go away, the Counselor won’t come to you. But if I go, I will send him to you.

“As for me, this is my covenant with them,” says Yahweh. “My Spirit who is on you, and my words which I have put in your mouth shall not depart out of your mouth, nor out of the mouth of your offspring, nor out of the mouth of your offspring’s offspring,” says Yahweh, “from now on and forever.”

You will dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers. You will be my people, and I will be your God.

By this God’s love was revealed in us, that God has sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him.

Great is our Lord, and mighty in power. His understanding is infinite.

When therefore he was raised from the dead, his disciples remembered that he said this, and they believed the Scripture, and the word which Jesus had said.

What agreement does a temple of God have with idols? For you are a temple of the living God. Even as God said, “I will dwell in them and walk in them. I will be their God and they will be my people.”

“ ‘You shall not lie with a man as with a woman. That is detestable.

“ ‘If a man lies with a male, as with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination. They shall surely be put to death. Their blood shall be upon themselves.

I will put my Spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes. You will keep my ordinances and do them.

But if the Spirit of him who raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised up Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you.

And because you are children, God sent out the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, “Abba, Father!”

You also, as living stones, are built up as a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.

You have an anointing from the Holy One, and you all have knowledge.

“Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations. I will be exalted in the earth.”

Your hands have made me and formed me. Give me understanding, that I may learn your commandments.

“It will be that in the place where it was said to them, ‘You are not my people,’ there they will be called ‘children of the living God.’ ”

for God’s Kingdom is not eating and drinking, but righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.

Or don’t you know that the unrighteous will not inherit God’s Kingdom? Don’t be deceived. Neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor male prostitutes, nor homosexuals,

Don’t be deceived. God is not mocked, for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap.

For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared before that we would walk in them.

that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith, to the end that you, being rooted and grounded in love,

Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the bed be undefiled; but God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers.

But for the cowardly, unbelieving, sinners, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars, their part is in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death.”

Outside are the dogs, the sorcerers, the sexually immoral, the murderers, the idolaters, and everyone who loves and practices falsehood.

Let them make me a sanctuary, that I may dwell among them.

He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood lives in me, and I in him.

Therefore I urge you, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service.

nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor slanderers, nor extortionists, will inherit God’s Kingdom.

even as I also please all men in all things, not seeking my own profit, but the profit of the many, that they may be saved.

Therefore we know no one after the flesh from now on. Even though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now we know him so no more.

If we live by the Spirit, let’s also walk by the Spirit.

Let’s not be weary in doing good, for we will reap in due season, if we don’t give up.

Whoever denies the Son doesn’t have the Father. He who confesses the Son has the Father also.

As for you, the anointing which you received from him remains in you, and you don’t need for anyone to teach you. But as his anointing teaches you concerning all things, and is true, and is no lie, and even as it taught you, you will remain in him.

God said, “Let’s make man in our image, after our likeness. Let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the sky, and over the livestock, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.”

Oh come, let’s worship and bow down. Let’s kneel before Yahweh, our Maker,

even as the Son of Man came not to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”

But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things, and will remind you of all that I said to you.

Finally, be strong in the Lord, and in the strength of his might.

We desire that each one of you may show the same diligence to the fullness of hope even to the end,

Or do you think that the Scripture says in vain, “The Spirit who lives in us yearns jealously”?

God, why have you rejected us forever? Why does your anger smolder against the sheep of your pasture?

But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if it is so that the Spirit of God dwells in you. But if any man doesn’t have the Spirit of Christ, he is not his.

See then the goodness and severity of God. Toward those who fell, severity; but toward you, goodness, if you continue in his goodness; otherwise you also will be cut off.

But to us, God revealed them through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God.

to whom God was pleased to make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.

Therefore don’t throw away your boldness, which has a great reward.

“Worthy are you, our Lord and God, the Holy One, to receive the glory, the honor, and the power, for you created all things, and because of your desire they existed, and were created!”

Haven’t you known? Haven’t you heard? The everlasting God, Yahweh, the Creator of the ends of the earth, doesn’t faint. He isn’t weary. His understanding is unsearchable.

But he spoke of the temple of his body.

“Foods for the belly, and the belly for foods,” but God will bring to nothing both it and them. But the body is not for sexual immorality, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body.

but Christ is faithful as a Son over his house. We are his house, if we hold fast our confidence and the glorying of our hope firm to the end.

The king of Israel answered, “It is according to your saying, my lord, O king. I am yours, and all that I have.”

He who keeps his commandments remains in him, and he in him. By this we know that he remains in us, by the Spirit which he gave us.

In the four hundred and eightieth year after the children of Israel had come out of the land of Egypt, in the fourth year of Solomon’s reign over Israel, in the month Ziv, which is the second month, he began to build Yahweh’s house.

But who am I, and what is my people, that we should be able to offer so willingly as this? For all things come from you, and we have given you of your own.

Know that Yahweh, he is God. It is he who has made us, and we are his. We are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.

He said to them, “Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?” They said to him, “No, we haven’t even heard that there is a Holy Spirit.”

that I should be a servant of Christ Jesus to the Gentiles, serving as a priest of the Good News of God, that the offering up of the Gentiles might be made acceptable, sanctified by the Holy Spirit.

For we are God’s fellow workers. You are God’s farming, God’s building.

Don’t you know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ and make them members of a prostitute? May it never be!

Examine your own selves, whether you are in the faith. Test your own selves. Or don’t you know about your own selves, that Jesus Christ is in you?—unless indeed you are disqualified.

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, God’s love, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all. Amen.

in whom you also are built together for a habitation of God in the Spirit.

That good thing which was committed to you, guard through the Holy Spirit who dwells in us.
