Which

Jehovah then passed in front of him and called out: I, Jehovah, am a God who is full of compassion and pity. I am not easily angered and show great love and faithfulness.

You, O Jehovah, are good and forgiving, full of loving kindness toward everyone who calls out to you.

He prayed to Jehovah: I pray to you, O Jehovah, was this what I said, when I was yet in my country? Therefore I hurried to flee to Tarshish. Because I knew that you are a gracious God. You are merciful, slow to anger, abundant in loving kindness, and one who takes pity over calamity (tragedy) (catastrophe) (disaster).

But the two are not the same, because God's gift (spiritual endowment) is not like Adam's sin. It is true that many people died because of the sin of that one man. But God's grace is much greater, and so is his gift to so many people through the loving-kindness of the one man, Jesus Christ.

In him we have our redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace.

But God, being rich in mercy, because of his great love with which he loved us,

They were born from God. It was not from blood, or the will of the flesh, or the will of man.

Jesus answered: Truly I tell you unless a person is born again (brought forth from above) he cannot see the kingdom of God.

Using his own will, he gave us birth through the word of truth. This way we would be a kind of first fruits of his creatures.

If you know that he is righteous you know that every one who practices righteousness is born of him.

Whoever is born of God does not practice sin! His seed abides in him and he cannot sin because he has been born of God.

Beloved let us love one another, for love is from God. Everyone who loves is born of God and knows God.

Whoever believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God. Whoever loves him that causes the birth also loves him that is born.

Unto

Tribulation produces an approved condition and an approved condition produces hope.

We are saved by this hope. But hope that is seen is not hope. For does a man hope for what he sees?

Rejoice in hope! Be patient in tribulation. Continue in prayer.

Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Spirit.

Faith, hope and love remain. These three! The greatest of these is love!

Provided that you continue in the faith, grounded (on the foundation) and steadfast, and not moved away from the hope of the good news you heard, which was preached in all creation under heaven. For this I, Paul, was made a minister.

We continually remember your work of faith, labor of love, and patience, and your hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, before our God and Father.

Look for the blessed hope and appearance of the glory of the great God. And look for our Savior, Jesus Christ.

Christ was faithful as a Son over God's house. We are His house if we hold on to our courage (confidence) and rejoice (speak boldly) about our hope until the end.

God did this to offer encouragement so we may rely on the hope offered to us. We have taken refuge in that hope and it is impossible for God to lie. These two things can never be changed.

Everyone who has this hope in him is purified. He is pure.

who was delivered up for our trespasses, and was raised for our justification (acquittal).

While we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son. Being reconciled, we will be saved by his life.

If the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from among the dead dwells with you, he who raised Christ from among the dead shall also make your mortal bodies alive. This is on account of his Spirit that dwells with you.

Christ has risen from the dead, and has become the first fruits of those who slept [in death].

God raised us up with him and made us to sit with him in the heavenly places, with Christ Jesus.

I do not want you to be ignorant brothers, concerning those who are asleep (in death). You do not need to sorrow like others who have no hope.
