[Ephesians 1:21] For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. [Ephesians 2:8-9] Now unto hum that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us [Ephesians 3:20] Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers. [Ephesians 4:29] For do I now persuade men, or God? Or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ. [Galatians 1:10] I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. [Galatians 2:20] But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith. [Galatians 3:11] Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage. [Galatians 5:1] This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. [Galatians 5:16] Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ: [Philippians 1:6] Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than themselves. [Philippians 2:3] Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. [Philippians 4:6] I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me. [Philippians 4:13] Is there anything too hard for the Lord? At the time appointed I will return unto thee, according to the time of life, and Sarah shall have a son. [Genesis 18:14] |
