Our

He was delivered over to death for our trespasses and was raised to life for our justification.

Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,

Not only that, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance;

And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out His love into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, whom He has given us.

Not only that, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.

…so that, just as sin reigned in death, so also grace might reign through righteousness to bring eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

We know that our old self was crucified with Him so that the body of sin might be rendered powerless, that we should no longer be slaves to sin.

For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

For when we lived according to the flesh, the sinful passions aroused by the law were at work in our bodies, bearing fruit for death.

Thanks be to God, through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, with my mind I serve the law of God, but with my flesh I serve the law of sin.

The Spirit Himself testifies with our spirit that we are God’s children.

I consider that our present sufferings are not comparable to the glory that will be revealed in us.

Not only that, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for our adoption as sons, the redemption of our bodies.

Not only that, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for our adoption as sons, the redemption of our bodies.

In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know how we ought to pray, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groans too deep for words.

And He who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.

…neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Not only that, but Rebecca’s children were conceived by one man, our father Isaac.

But not all of them welcomed the good news. For Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed our message?”

And do this, understanding the occasion. The hour has come for you to wake up from your slumber, for our salvation is nearer now than when we first believed.

For everything that was written in the past was written for our instruction, so that through endurance and the encouragement of the Scriptures, we might have hope.

…so that with one mind and one voice you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Now I urge you, brothers, by our Lord Jesus Christ and by the love of the Spirit, to join me in my struggle by praying to God for me.

I commend to you our sister Phoebe, a servant of the church in Cenchrea.

Greet Urbanus, our fellow worker in Christ, and my beloved Stachys.

For such people are not serving our Lord Christ, but their own appetites. By smooth talk and flattery they deceive the hearts of the naive.

The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.

Gaius, who has hosted me and all the church, sends you greetings. Erastus, the city treasurer, sends you greetings, as does our brother Quartus.

Paul, called to be an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and our brother Sosthenes,

To the church of God in Corinth, to those sanctified in Christ Jesus and called to be holy, together with all those everywhere who call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, their Lord and ours:

Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

…because our testimony about Christ was confirmed in you.

Therefore you do not lack any spiritual gift as you eagerly await the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ.

He will sustain you to the end, so that you will be blameless on the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.

God, who has called you into fellowship with His Son Jesus Christ our Lord, is faithful.

I appeal to you, brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree together, so that there may be no divisions among you and that you may be united in mind and conviction.

It is because of Him that you are in Christ Jesus, who has become for us wisdom from God: our righteousness, holiness, and redemption.

No, we speak of the mysterious and hidden wisdom of God, which He destined for our glory before time began.

We work hard with our own hands. When we are vilified, we bless; when we are persecuted, we endure it;

When you are assembled in the name of our Lord Jesus and I am with you in spirit, along with the power of the Lord Jesus,

Get rid of the old leaven, that you may be a new unleavened batch, as you really are. For Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed.

And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified, in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.

Am I not free? Am I not an apostle? Have I not seen Jesus our Lord? Are you yourselves not my workmanship in the Lord?

Isn’t He actually speaking on our behalf? Indeed, this was written for us, because when the plowman plows and the thresher threshes, they should also expect to share in the harvest.

I do not want you to be unaware, brothers, that our forefathers were all under the cloud, and that they all passed through the sea.

…and the parts we consider less honorable, we treat with greater honor. And our unpresentable parts are treated with special modesty,

…whereas our presentable parts have no such need. But God has composed the body and has given greater honor to the parts that lacked it,

For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures,

And if Christ has not been raised, our preaching is worthless, and so is your faith.

If our hope in Christ is for this life alone, we are to be pitied more than all men.

I face death every day, brothers, as surely as I boast about you in Christ Jesus our Lord.

But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ!

Now about our brother Apollos: I strongly urged him to go to you with the brothers. He was not at all inclined to go now, but he will go when he has the opportunity.

Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and Timothy our brother, To the church of God in Corinth, together with all the saints throughout Achaia:

Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort,

…who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God.

For just as the sufferings of Christ overflow to us, so also through Christ our comfort overflows.

And our hope for you is sure, because we know that just as you share in our sufferings, so also you will share in our comfort.

And our hope for you is sure, because we know that just as you share in our sufferings, so also you will share in our comfort.

And our hope for you is sure, because we know that just as you share in our sufferings, so also you will share in our comfort.

We do not want you to be unaware, brothers, of the hardships we encountered in the province of Asia. We were under a burden far beyond our ability to endure, so that we despaired even of life.

He has delivered us from such a deadly peril, and He will deliver us. In Him we have placed our hope that He will yet again deliver us,

…as you help us by your prayers. Then many will give thanks on our behalf for the favor shown us in answer to their prayers.

For this is our boast: Our conscience testifies that we have conducted ourselves in the world, and especially in relation to you, in the holiness and sincerity that are from God—not in worldly wisdom, but in the grace of God.

For this is our boast: Our conscience testifies that we have conducted ourselves in the world, and especially in relation to you, in the holiness and sincerity that are from God—not in worldly wisdom, but in the grace of God.

…as you have already understood us in part, that you may boast of us just as we will boast of you in the day of our Lord Jesus.

But as surely as God is faithful, our message to you is not “Yes” and “No.”

For all the promises of God are “Yes” in Christ. And so through Him, our “Amen” is spoken to the glory of God.

…placed His seal on us, and put His Spirit in our hearts as a pledge of what is to come.

You yourselves are our letter, inscribed on our hearts, known and read by everyone.

You yourselves are our letter, inscribed on our hearts, known and read by everyone.

It is clear that you are a letter from Christ, the result of our ministry, written not with ink but with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of human hearts.

Not that we are competent in ourselves to claim that anything comes from us, but our competence comes from God.

And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing.

For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” made His light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body.

We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body.

For we who are alive are always consigned to death for Jesus’ sake, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our mortal body.

Therefore we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, yet our inner self is being renewed day by day.

Therefore we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, yet our inner self is being renewed day by day.

For our light and momentary affliction is producing for us an eternal weight of glory that is far beyond comparison.

So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.

For in this tent we groan, longing to be clothed with our heavenly dwelling,

For while we are in this tent, we groan under our burdens, because we do not wish to be unclothed but clothed, so that our mortality may be swallowed up by life.

For while we are in this tent, we groan under our burdens, because we do not wish to be unclothed but clothed, so that our mortality may be swallowed up by life.

If we are out of our mind, it is for God; if we are of sound mind, it is for you.

God made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God.

We put no obstacle in anyone’s way, so that no one can discredit our ministry.

We have spoken freely to you, Corinthians. Our hearts are open wide.

It is not our affection, but yours, that is restrained.

I do not say this to condemn you. I have said before that you so occupy our hearts that we live and die together with you.

Great is my confidence in you; great is my pride in you; I am filled with encouragement; in all our troubles my joy overflows.

For when we arrived in Macedonia, our bodies had no rest, but we were pressed from every direction—conflicts on the outside, fears within.

So even though I wrote to you, it was not on account of the one who did wrong or the one who was harmed, but rather that your earnestness on our behalf would be made clear to you in the sight of God.

On account of this, we are encouraged. In addition to our own encouragement, we were even more delighted by the joy of Titus. For his spirit has been refreshed by all of you.

Indeed, I was not embarrassed by anything I had boasted to him about you. But just as everything we said to you was true, so our boasting to Titus has proved to be true as well.

For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though He was rich, yet for your sake He became poor, so that you through His poverty might become rich.

It is not our intention that others may be relieved while you are burdened, but that there may be equality.

For not only did he welcome our appeal, but he is eagerly coming to you of his own volition.
