And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent his. Son a Saviour of the world.

For Christ also once suffered for sins, the just one for the unjust, that he might bring us near to God, truly put to death in the flesh, and made alive by the Spirit:
For the zeal of thy house devoured me, and the reproaches of those reproaching thee fell upon me.
Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law, having been a curse for us: for it has been written, Cursed every one hanging upon a tree:
But we see Jesus, made some little while less than angels by the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; so that by the grace of God he should taste of death for all.
For him not knowing sin, he made sin for us; that we might be the justice of God in him.
And he being wounded for our transgressions, and crushed from our iniquities; the correction of our peace upon him, and in the marks of his stripes it was healed to us.
So Christ, once offered to have borne the sins of many, of the second time, without sin, shall be seen to them expecting him for salvation.
Who himself bear up our sins in his body upon the wood, that we, removed from sins, should live to justice: by whose bloody mark ye were healed.

He remembered for us our lowness: for his mercy is forever:
If Jehovah is high, and he will see the humble one: and the lofty one he will know from far off.

For he looked upon the humiliation of his servant; for, behold, from now shall all generations deem me happy
He arises from supper, and lays down the garments; and having taken a linen cloth, he girded himself.
And having said this, he showed them his hands, and his side. Then the disciples rejoiced, having seen the Lord.
Then says he to Thomas, Bring hither thy finger, and see my hands; and bring thy hand, and put into my side: and be not unbelieving, but believing.
