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

I am the vine. You are the branches. He who remains in me and I in him bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.

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 the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faith,

Have this in your mind, which was also in Christ Jesus,

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.

Jesus answered him, “If a man loves me, he will keep my word. My Father will love him, and we will come to him, and make our home with him.

I have told you these things, that in me you may have peace. In the world you have trouble; but cheer up! I have overcome the world.”

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

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.”

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

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

who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him.

Yes, and all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution.

For I have given you an example, that you should also do as I have done to you.

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.

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

Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ according to the commandment of God our Savior and the Lord Jesus Christ our hope;

For we have become partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence firm to the end,

See how great a love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God! For this cause the world doesn’t know us, because it didn’t know him.

Whoever transgresses and doesn’t remain in the teaching of Christ, doesn’t have God. He who remains in the teaching has both the Father and the Son.

Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, then I will come in to him, and will dine with him, and he with me.

Create in me a clean heart, O God. Renew a right spirit within me.

Who is this who comes up from the wilderness like pillars of smoke, perfumed with myrrh and frankincense, with all spices of the merchant?

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

for the Father himself loves you, because you have loved me, and have believed that I came from God.

to those who by perseverance in well-doing seek for glory, honor, and incorruptibility, eternal life;

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.

In that day you will know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you.

Ephraim, what have I to do any more with idols? I answer, and will take care of him. I am like a green cypress tree; from me your fruit is found.”

Those in the good ground, these are those who with an honest and good heart, having heard the word, hold it tightly, and produce fruit with perseverance.
