I sought Yahweh, and he answered me, and delivered me from all my fears.

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

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

Jesus came to them and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth.

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.

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.

Yahweh says to my Lord, “Sit at my right hand, until I make your enemies your footstool for your feet.”

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.

and if children, then heirs: heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with him, that we may also be glorified with him.

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.

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?

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.

Yes most certainly, and I count all things to be a loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus, my Lord, for whom I suffered the loss of all things, and count them nothing but refuse, that I may gain Christ

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,

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.

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

I will give to you the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will have been bound in heaven; and whatever you release on earth will have been released in heaven.”

So then the Lord, after he had spoken to them, was received up into heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God.

But now we have been discharged from the law, having died to that in which we were held; so that we serve in newness of the spirit, and not in oldness of the letter.

And being found in human form, he humbled himself, becoming obedient to the point of death, yes, the death of the cross.

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.

When the living creatures give glory, honor, and thanks to him who sits on the throne, to him who lives forever and ever,

For I am persuaded that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers,

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.

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

As you know, we exhorted, comforted, and implored every one of you, as a father does his own children,

For what the law couldn’t do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God did, sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and for sin, he condemned sin in the flesh;

but in everything commending ourselves, as servants of God, in great endurance, in afflictions, in hardships, in distresses,

He has said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Most gladly therefore I will rather glory in my weaknesses, that the power of Christ may rest on me.

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

When Christ, our life, is revealed, then you will also be revealed with him in glory.
