Scriptures

New American Standard Bible (NASB)

Romans 4
²² Therefore it was also credited to him as righteousness.
²³ Now not for his sake only was it written that it was credited to him,
²⁴ but for our sake also, to whom it will be credited, as those who believe in Him who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead,
²⁵ He who was delivered over because of our transgressions, and was raised because of our justification.
Romans 5
¹ Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,
² through whom also we have obtained our introduction by faith into this grace in which we stand; and we exult in hope of the glory of God.
³ And not only this, but we also exult in our tribulations, knowing that tribulation brings about perseverance;
⁴ and perseverance, proven character; and proven character, hope;
⁵ and hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out within our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.
⁶ For while we were still helpless, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly.
⁷ For one will hardly die for a righteous man; though perhaps for the good man someone would dare even to die.
