'Living' in the Bible

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who, according to his great mercy, has begotten us again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from among the dead,

being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the living and abiding word of God.

To whom coming, a living stone, cast away indeed as worthless by men, but with God chosen, precious,

yourselves also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.

who shall render account to him who is ready to judge the living and the dead.
