1 Thessalonians 5:10

Yahweh is my shepherd: I shall lack nothing.

But God commends his own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

Those who belong to Christ have crucified the flesh with its passions and lusts.

All things have been delivered to me by my Father. No one knows the Son, except the Father; neither does anyone know the Father, except the Son, and he to whom the Son desires to reveal him.

Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.

But seek first God’s Kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well.

But far be it from me to boast, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.

For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.

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

For we don’t have a high priest who can’t be touched with the feeling of our infirmities, but one who has been in all points tempted like we are, yet without sin.

Surely he has borne our sickness and carried our suffering; yet we considered him plagued, struck by God, and afflicted.

But he was pierced for our transgressions. He was crushed for our iniquities. The punishment that brought our peace was on him; and by his wounds we are healed.

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.

I heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them, “Come up here!” They went up into heaven in the cloud, and their enemies saw them.

who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us out of this present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father—

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.

All we like sheep have gone astray. Everyone has turned to his own way; and Yahweh has laid on him the iniquity of us all.

The thief only comes to steal, kill, and destroy. I came that they may have life, and may have it abundantly.

in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we will be changed.

For the love of Christ constrains us; because we judge thus, that one died for all, therefore all died.

Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old things have passed away. Behold, all things have become new.

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.

My little children, I write these things to you so that you may not sin. If anyone sins, we have a Counselor with the Father, Jesus Christ, the righteous.

He will feed his flock like a shepherd. He will gather the lambs in his arm, and carry them in his bosom. He will gently lead those who have their young.

that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying, “He took our infirmities, and bore our diseases.”

For who is greater, one who sits at the table, or one who serves? Isn’t it he who sits at the table? But I am among you as one who serves.

Remain in me, and I in you. As the branch can’t bear fruit by itself unless it remains in the vine, so neither can you, unless you remain in me.

But if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him;

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.

that I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, becoming conformed to his death,

I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me.

For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.

Confess your offenses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The insistent prayer of a righteous person is powerfully effective.

Therefore, since Christ suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves also with the same mind; for he who has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin,

You know that he was revealed to take away our sins, and no sin is in him.

A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also love one another.

Also, do not present your members to sin as instruments of unrighteousness, but present yourselves to God as alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God.

There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who don’t walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.

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.

Because of him, you are in Christ Jesus, who was made to us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification, and redemption:

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.

Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us. For it is written, “Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree,”

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

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

but emptied himself, taking the form of a servant, being made in the likeness of men.

Therefore he is also able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through him, seeing that he lives forever to make intercession for them.

how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without defect to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?

so Christ also, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, without sin, to those who are eagerly waiting for him for salvation.

I will set up one shepherd over them, and he will feed them, even my servant David. He will feed them, and he will be their shepherd.

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

If I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and will receive you to myself; that where I am, you may be there also.

that they may all be one; even as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be one in us; that the world may believe that you sent me.

For as through the one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, even so through the obedience of the one, many will be made righteous.

Thus consider yourselves also to be dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

No, in all these things, we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.

For he was crucified through weakness, yet he lives through the power of God. For we also are weak in him, but we will live with him through the power of God toward you.

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

Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the assembly, and gave himself up for it;

or else he must have suffered often since the foundation of the world. But now once at the end of the ages, he has been revealed to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.

Now may the God of peace, who brought again from the dead the great shepherd of the sheep with the blood of an eternal covenant, our Lord Jesus,

For to this end the Good News was preached even to the dead, that they might be judged indeed as men in the flesh, but live as to God in the spirit.

When the chief Shepherd is revealed, you will receive the crown of glory that doesn’t fade away.

By this we know love, because he laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for the brothers.

Behold, he is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him, including those who pierced him. All the tribes of the earth will mourn over him. Even so, Amen.

For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that you through his poverty might become rich.

For none of us lives to himself, and none dies to himself.

The tombs were opened, and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised;

He said these things, and after that, he said to them, “Our friend, Lazarus, has fallen asleep, but I am going so that I may awake him out of sleep.”

He died for all, that those who live should no longer live to themselves, but to him who for their sakes died and rose again.

For I, through the law, died to the law, that I might live to God.

This saying is trustworthy: “For if we died with him, we will also live with him.

If I would count them, they are more in number than the sand. When I wake up, I am still with you.

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

When he had entered in, he said to them, “Why do you make an uproar and weep? The child is not dead, but is asleep.”

I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.

even as the Father knows me, and I know the Father. I lay down my life for the sheep.

Therefore the Father loves me, because I lay down my life, that I may take it again.

Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends.

He kneeled down, and cried with a loud voice, “Lord, don’t hold this sin against them!” When he had said this, he fell asleep.

Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, yes rather, who was raised from the dead, who is at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us.

For if we live, we live to the Lord. Or if we die, we die to the Lord. If therefore we live or die, we are the Lord’s.

For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures,

For him who knew no sin he made to be sin on our behalf; so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.

Walk in love, even as Christ also loved us and gave himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling fragrance.

But we don’t want you to be ignorant, brothers, concerning those who have fallen asleep, so that you don’t grieve like the rest, who have no hope.

then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air. So we will be with the Lord forever.

who gave himself as a ransom for all, the testimony in its own times,

who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify for himself a people for his own possession, zealous for good works.

He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live to righteousness. You were healed by his wounds.

Because Christ also suffered for sins once, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring you to God, being put to death in the flesh, but made alive in the Spirit,

I heard a voice from heaven saying, “Write, ‘Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on.’ ” “Yes,” says the Spirit, “that they may rest from their labors; for their works follow with them.”

In peace I will both lay myself down and sleep, for you, Yahweh alone, make me live in safety.
