Romans 5:8
Romans 5:8

But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

COLOSSIANS 2:6-7
COLOSSIANS 2:6-7

So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live your lives in him, rooted and built up in him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness.

EPHESIANS 2: 8-9
EPHESIANS 2: 8-9

For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—not by works, so that no one can boast.

COLOSSIANS 3: 12-13
COLOSSIANS 3: 12-13

Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone.
