Slaves to Righteousness 15  What then? Shall we sin because we are not under the law but under grace? By no means!  16  Don’t you know that when you offer yourselves to someone as obedient slaves, you are slaves of the one you obey—whether you are slaves to sin, which leads to death, or to obedience, which leads to righteousness?  17  But thanks be to God that, though you used to be slaves to sin,...

12  Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him. 13  When tempted, no one should say, “God is tempting me.” For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone;  14  but each person is tempted when they are dragged away by their own evil desire and enticed.  15  The...

24  Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another.  25  They exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen. 26  Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations fo...

33  “Make a tree good and its fruit will be good, or make a tree bad and its fruit will be bad, for a tree is recognized by its fruit.  34  You brood of vipers, how can you who are evil say anything good? For the mouth speaks what the heart is full of. 35  A good man brings good things out of the good stored up in him, and an evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in him.

God’s Wrath Against Sinful Humanity 18  The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of people, who suppress the truth by their wickedness,  19  since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. 20  For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly...

21  But now the righteousness of God has been manifested apart from the law, although the Law and the Prophets bear witness to it—  22  the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all who believe. For there is no distinction: 23  for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,  24  and are justified by his grace as a gift, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus,  25 ...

18  For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us.  19  For the creation waits with eager longing for the revealing of the sons of God.  20  For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of him who subjected it, in hope  21  that the creation itself will be set free from its bondage to corruption...

Made Alive in Christ 2  As for you, you were dead in your transgressions and sins,  2  in which you used to live when you followed the ways of this world and of the ruler of the kingdom of the air, the spirit who is now at work in those who are disobedient.  3  All of us also lived among them at one time, gratifying the cravings of our flesh and following its desires and thoughts. Like the rest, w...

22  And the Lord God said, “The man has now become like one of us, knowing good and evil. He must not be allowed to reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life and eat, and live forever.”  23  So the Lord God banished him from the Garden of Eden to work the ground from which he had been taken.  24  After he drove the man out, he placed on the east side[ a ] of the Garden of Eden cherubi...

20  Adam named his wife Eve, because she would become the mother of all the living. 21  The Lord God made garments of skin for Adam and his wife and clothed them.

Death Through Adam, Life Through Christ 12  Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, and in this way death came to all people, because all sinned— 13  To be sure, sin was in the world before the law was given, but sin is not charged against anyone’s account where there is no law.  14  Nevertheless, death reigned from the time of Adam to the time of Moses, ev...

14  So the Lord God said to the serpent, “Because you have done this, “Cursed are you above all livestock     and all wild animals! You will crawl on your belly     and you will eat dust     all the days of your life. 15  And I will put enmity     between you and the woman,     and between your offspring[ a ] and hers; he will crush[ b ] your head,     and you will strike his heel.” 16  To the wom...

8  Then the man and his wife heard the sound of the Lord God as he was walkingin the garden in the cool of the day, and they hid from the Lord God among the trees of the garden.  9  But the Lord God called to the man, “Where are you?” 10  He answered, “I heard you in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; so I hid.” 11  And he said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from...

6  When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it.  7  Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they realized they were naked; so they sewed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves.

The Fall 3  Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the wild animals the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God really say, ‘You must not eat from any tree in the garden’?” 2  The woman said to the serpent, “We may eat fruit from the trees in the garden, 3  but God did say, ‘You must not eat fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the garden, and you must not touch it, or you w...

The Word Became Flesh 1  In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.  2  He was with God in the beginning.  3  Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made.  4  In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind.  5  The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it. 6  There was a man sent from...

The Throne in Heaven 4  After this I looked, and there before me was a door standing open in heaven. And the voice I had first heard speaking to me like a trumpet said, “Come up here, and I will show you what must take place after this.”  2  At once I was in the Spirit, and there before me was a throne in heaven with someone sitting on it. 3  And the one who sat there had the appearance of jasper ...

22  Paul then stood up in the meeting of the Areopagus and said: “People of Athens! I see that in every way you are very religious.  23  For as I walked around and looked carefully at your objects of worship, I even found an altar with this inscription: to an unknown god. So you are ignorant of the very thing you worship—and this is what I am going to proclaim to you. 24  “The God who made the wor...

For you created my inmost being;     you knit me together in my mother’s womb. 14  I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;     your works are wonderful,     I know that full well. 15  My frame was not hidden from you     when I was made in the secret place,     when I was woven together in the depths of the earth. 16  Your eyes saw my unformed body;     all the days ordained for...

For the director of music. A psalm of David. 1  The heavens declare the glory of God;     the skies proclaim the work of his hands. 2  Day after day they pour forth speech;     night after night they reveal knowledge. 3  They have no speech, they use no words;     no sound is heard from them. 4  Yet their voice goes out into all the earth,     their words to the ends of the world. In the heavens G...

Jesus Prays to Be Glorified After Jesus said this, he looked toward heaven and prayed: “Father, the hour has come. Glorify your Son, that your Son may glorify you. 2  For you granted him authority over all people that he might give eternal lifeto all those you have given him.  3  Now this is eternal life: that they know you,the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.  4  I have brough...

Israel’s Only Savior But now, this is what the Lord says—     he who created you, Jacob,     he who formed you, Israel: “Do not fear, for I have redeemed you;     I have summoned you by name; you are mine. 2  When you pass through the waters,     I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers,     they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire,     you will not be burned;  ...

24  That is why a man leaves his father and mother and is united to his wife, and they become one flesh. 25  Adam and his wife were both naked, and they felt no shame.

18  The Lord God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him.” 19  Now the Lord God had formed out of the ground all the wild animals and all the birds in the sky. He brought them to the man to see what he would name them; and whatever the man called each living creature, that was its name. 20  So the man gave names to all the livestock, the birds in the sk...

15  The Lord God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it.  16  And the Lord God commanded the man, “You are free to eat from any tree in the garden;  17  but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat from it you will certainly die.”
