Will

Then I asked, ‘What should I do, Lord?’ ‘Get up and go into Damascus,’ He told me. ‘There you will be told all that you have been appointed to do.’

Then he said, ‘The God of our fathers has appointed you to know His will and to see the Righteous One and to hear His voice.

You will be His witness to everyone of what you have seen and heard.

…and saw the Lord saying to me, ‘Hurry! Leave Jerusalem quickly, because the people here will not accept your testimony about Me.’

Then He said to me, ‘Go! I will send you far away to the Gentiles.’”

Then Paul said to him, “God will strike you, you whitewashed wall! You sit here to judge me according to the law, yet you yourself violate the law by commanding that I be struck.”

…he said, “I will hear your case when your accusers arrive.” Then he ordered that Paul be kept under guard in Herod’s Praetorium.

By examining him yourself, you will be able to learn the truth about all our charges against him.”

…and I have the same hope in God that they themselves cherish, that there will be a resurrection of both the righteous and the wicked.

Then Felix, who was well informed about the Way, adjourned the hearing and said, “When Lysias the commander comes, I will decide your case.”

As Paul expounded on righteousness, self-control, and the coming judgment, Felix became frightened and said, “You may go for now. When I find the time, I will call for you.”

Then Festus conferred with his council and replied, “You have appealed to Caesar. To Caesar you will go!”

Then Agrippa said to Festus, “I would like to hear this man myself.” “Tomorrow you will hear him,” Festus declared.

‘But get up and stand on your feet. For I have appeared to you to appoint you as a servant and as a witness of what you have seen from Me and what I will show you.

I will rescue you from your own people and from the Gentiles. I am sending you to them

“Men, I can see that our voyage will be filled with disaster and great loss, not only to ship and cargo, but to our own lives as well.”

But now I urge you to keep up your courage, because you will not experience any loss of life, but only of the ship.

So take courage, men, for I believe God that it will happen just as He told me.

So for your own preservation, I urge you to eat something, because not a single hair of your head will be lost.”

‘Go to this people and say, “You will be ever hearing but never understanding; you will be ever seeing but never perceiving.”

‘Go to this people and say, “You will be ever hearing but never understanding; you will be ever seeing but never perceiving.”

Be advised, therefore, that God’s salvation has been sent to the Gentiles, and they will listen!”

…in my prayers at all times, asking that now at last by God’s will I may succeed in coming to you.

For the gospel reveals the righteousness of God that comes by faith from start to finish, just as it is written: “The righteous will live by faith.”

So when you, O man, pass judgment on others, yet do the same things, do you think you will escape God’s judgment?

But because of your hard and unrepentant heart, you are storing up wrath against yourself for the day of wrath, when God’s righteous judgment will be revealed.

God “will repay each one according to his deeds.”

To those who by perseverance in doing good seek glory, honor, and immortality, He will give eternal life.

But for those who are self-seeking and who reject the truth and follow wickedness, there will be wrath and anger.

There will be trouble and distress for every human being who does evil, first for the Jew, then for the Greek;

All who sin apart from the law will also perish apart from the law, and all who sin under the law will be judged by the law.

All who sin apart from the law will also perish apart from the law, and all who sin under the law will be judged by the law.

For it is not the hearers of the law who are righteous before God, but it is the doers of the law who will be declared righteous.

…on the day when God will judge men’s secrets through Christ Jesus, as proclaimed by my gospel.

…if you know His will and approve of what is superior because you are instructed by the law;

If a man who is not circumcised keeps the requirements of the law, will not his uncircumcision be regarded as circumcision?

The one who is physically uncircumcised yet keeps the law will condemn you who, even though you have the written code and circumcision, are a lawbreaker.

What if some did not have faith? Will their lack of faith nullify God’s faithfulness?

Therefore no one will be justified in His sight by works of the law. For the law merely brings awareness of sin.

…since there is only one God, who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through that same faith.

Blessed is the man whose sin the Lord will never count against him.”

…but also for us, to whom righteousness will be credited—for us who believe in Him who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead.

Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous man, though for a good man someone might possibly dare to die.

For if, by the trespass of the one man, death reigned through that one man, how much more will those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man, Jesus Christ!

For just as through the disobedience of the one man the many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of the one man the many will be made righteous.

For if we have been united with Him like this in His death, we will certainly also be united with Him in His resurrection.

Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with Him.

What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death?

And if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, He who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit, who lives in you.

For if you live according to the flesh, you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.

For if you live according to the flesh, you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.

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

For the creation was subjected to futility, not by its own will, but because of the One who subjected it, in hope

…that the creation itself will be set free from its bondage to decay and brought into the glorious freedom of the children of God.

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.

He who did not spare His own Son but gave Him up for us all, how will He not also, along with Him, freely give us all things?

Who will bring any charge against God’s elect? It is God who justifies.

…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.

Nor because they are Abraham’s descendants are they all his children. On the contrary, “Through Isaac your offspring will be reckoned.”

For this is what the promise stated: “At the appointed time I will return, and Sarah will have a son.”

For this is what the promise stated: “At the appointed time I will return, and Sarah will have a son.”

…not by works but by Him who calls, she was told, “The older will serve the younger.”

For He says to Moses: “I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion.”

For He says to Moses: “I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion.”

One of you will say to me, “Then why does God still find fault? For who can resist His will?”

One of you will say to me, “Then why does God still find fault? For who can resist His will?”

As He says in Hosea: “I will call them ‘My People’ who are not My people, and I will call her ‘My Beloved’ who is not My beloved,”

As He says in Hosea: “I will call them ‘My People’ who are not My people, and I will call her ‘My Beloved’ who is not My beloved,”

…and, “It will happen that in the very place where it was said to them, ‘You are not My people,’ they will be called ‘sons of the living God.’”

…and, “It will happen that in the very place where it was said to them, ‘You are not My people,’ they will be called ‘sons of the living God.’”

Isaiah cries out concerning Israel: “Though the number of the Israelites is like the sand of the sea, only the remnant will be saved.

For the Lord will carry out His sentence on the earth thoroughly and decisively.”

What then will we say? That the Gentiles, who did not pursue righteousness, have obtained it, a righteousness that is by faith;

…as it is written: “See, I lay in Zion a stone of stumbling and a rock of offense; and the one who believes in Him will never be put to shame.”

For concerning the righteousness that is by the law, Moses writes: “The man who does these things will live by them.”

But the righteousness that is by faith says: “Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’ (that is, to bring Christ down)

…or, ‘Who will descend into the Abyss?’ (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead).”

…that if you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.

It is just as the Scripture says: “Anyone who believes in Him will never be put to shame.”

…for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”

I ask instead, did Israel not understand? First, Moses says: “I will make you jealous by those who are not a nation; I will make you angry by a nation without understanding.”

I ask instead, did Israel not understand? First, Moses says: “I will make you jealous by those who are not a nation; I will make you angry by a nation without understanding.”

But if their trespass means riches for the world, and their failure means riches for the Gentiles, how much greater riches will their fullness bring!

For if their rejection is the reconciliation of the world, what will their acceptance be but life from the dead?

You will say then, “Branches were broken off so that I could be grafted in.”

For if God did not spare the natural branches, He will certainly not spare you either.

Take notice, therefore, of the kindness and severity of God: severity to those who fell, but kindness to you, if you continue in His kindness. Otherwise you also will be cut off.

And if they do not persist in unbelief, they will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again.

For if you were cut from a wild olive tree, and contrary to nature were grafted into one that is cultivated, how much more readily will these, the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree!

I do not want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers, so that you will not be conceited: A hardening in part has come to Israel, until the full number of the Gentiles has come in.

And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written: “The Deliverer will come from Zion; He will remove godlessness from Jacob.

And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written: “The Deliverer will come from Zion; He will remove godlessness from Jacob.

And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written: “The Deliverer will come from Zion; He will remove godlessness from Jacob.

Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what is the good, pleasing, and perfect will of God.

Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what is the good, pleasing, and perfect will of God.

Do not avenge yourselves, beloved, but leave room for God’s wrath. For it is written: “Vengeance is Mine; I will repay, says the Lord.”

On the contrary, “If your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him a drink. For in so doing, you will heap burning coals on his head.”

Consequently, whoever resists authority is opposing what God has set in place, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves.

For rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad. Do you want to be unafraid of the one in authority? Then do what is right, and you will have his approval.

Who are you to judge someone else’s servant? To his own master he stands or falls. And he will stand, for the Lord is able to make him stand.
