If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples, and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”

Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.

For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the scriptures.

Therefore let no one pass judgment on you in questions of food and drink, or with regard to a festival or a new moon or a Sabbath. These are a shadow of the things to come, but the substance belongs to Christ.

For what does the Scripture say? “Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him as righteousness.” And to the one who does not work but believes in him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is counted as righteousness.

And the Scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel beforehand to Abraham, saying, “In you shall all the nations be blessed.”

You meant evil against me, but God meant it for good, to bring it about that many people should be kept alive, as they are today.
