Crucified

Now those who belong to Christ have crucified the flesh with its emotions and passions.

But no boasting for me, none except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by which the world has been crucified to me and I crucified to the world.

Our baptism in his death made us share his burial, so that, as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might live and move in the new sphere of Life.

For God has done what the Law, weakened here by the flesh, could not do; by sending his own Son in the guise of sinful flesh, to deal with sin, he condemned sin in the flesh,

in him you have been circumcised with no material circumcision that cuts flesh from the body, but with Christ's own circumcision,

Nevertheless

We believe that as we have died with Christ we shall also live with him;

the law of the Spirit brings the life which is in Christ Jesus, and that law has set me free from the law of sin and death.

But, dead in trespasses as we were, God was so rich in mercy that for his great love to us

For though you were dead in your trespasses, your flesh uncircumcised, He made you live with Christ, He forgave us all our trespasses,

for you died and your life is hidden with Christ in God.

The life

every day of my life I am being given over to death for Jesus' sake, so that the life of Jesus may come out within my mortal flesh.

I do live in the flesh, but I do not make war as the flesh does;

Well, as Christ has suffered for us in the flesh, let this very conviction that he who has suffered in the flesh gets quit of sin,

I now

but since we know a man is justified simply by faith in Jesus Christ and not by doing what the Law commands, we ourselves have believed in Christ Jesus so as to get justified by faith in Christ and not by doing what the Law commands ??for by doing what the Law commands no person shall be justified.

And because no one is justified on the score of the Law before God (plainly, the just shall live by faith, ??12 and the Law is not based on faith: no, he who performs these things shall live by them),

Just as the living Father sent me and I live by the Father, so he who feeds on me will also live by me.

God's righteousness is revealed in it by faith and for faith ??as it is written, Now by faith shall the righteous live.

Through him we have got access to this grace where we have our standing, and triumph in the hope of God's glory.

(Not that we lord it over your faith ??no, we co-operate for your joy: you have a standing of your own in the faith.)

(for I have to lead my life in faith, without seeing him):

In him who strengthens me I am able for anything.

who died for us that waking in life or sleeping in death we should live together with him.

You never knew him, but you love him; for the moment you do not see him, but you believe in him, and you will thrill with an unspeakable and glorious joy

nerve you to spend the rest of your time in the flesh for the will of God and no longer for human passions.

The son

"Rabbi," said Nathanael, "you are the Son of God, you are the king of Israel!"

For God loved the world so dearly that he gave up his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may have eternal life, instead of perishing.

and we believe, we are certain, that you are the holy One of God."

Jesus heard that they had expelled him, and on meeting him he said, "You believe in the Son of man?"

He lost no time in preaching throughout the synagogues that Jesus was the Son of God ??21 to the amazement of all his hearers, who said, "Is this not the man who in Jerusalem harried those who invoke this Name, the man who came here for the express purpose of carrying them all in chains to the high priests?"

and to wait for the coming of his Son from heaven ??the Son whom he raised from the dead, Jesus who rescues us from the Wrath to come.

but if we live and move within the light, as he is within the light, then we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from every sin.

This is how the love of God has appeared for us, by God sending his only Son into the world, so that by him we might live.

He who believes in the Son of God possesses that testimony within himself; he who will not believe God, has made God a liar by refusing to believe the testimony which God has borne to his Son.

Who

who gave himself for our sins to rescue us from the present evil world ??by the will of our God and Father,

just as the Son of man has not come to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many."

I am the good shepherd; a good shepherd lays down his own life for the sheep.

To lay life down for his friends, man has no greater love than that.

No, in all this we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.

and lead lives of love, just as Christ loved you and gave himself up for you to be a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.

who gave himself up for us to redeem us from all iniquity and secure himself a clean people with a zest for good works.

and from Jesus Christ the faithful witness, the first-born from the dead, and the prince over the kings of earth; to him who loves us and has loosed us from our sins by shedding his blood ??6 he has made us a realm of priests for his God and Father, ??to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever: Amen.
