Listen, listen to me, and eat what is good, and your soul will delight in the
richest of fare. Give ear and come to me; hear me, that your soul may live.
Romans 3 v 22 – 24:

by Christ Jesus.

"Praise be to the Lord, the God of Israel, because he has come and has redeemed
his people. He has raised up a horn of salvation for us in the house of his
servant David (as he said through his holy prophets of long ago), salvation from
our enemies and from the hand of all who hate us– to show mercy to our fathers
and to remember his holy covenant, the oath he swore to our father Abraham: to
rescue us from the hand of our enemies, and to enable us to serve him without
fear in holiness and righteousness before him all our days.

Israel."

"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever
believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his

Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands
condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God's one and only
Son.
John 4 v 7 – 13:
When a Samaritan woman came to draw water, Jesus said to her, "Will you give me
a drink?" (His disciples had gone into the town to buy food.) The Samaritan
woman said to him, "You are a Jew and I am a Samaritan woman. How can you ask me
for a drink?" (For Jews do not associate with Samaritans.) Jesus answered her,
"If you knew the gift of God and who it is that asks you for a drink, you would
have asked him and he would have given you living water." "Sir," the woman said,
"you have nothing to draw with and the well is deep. Where can you get this
living water? Are you greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well and
drank from it himself, as did also his sons and his flocks and herds?" Jesus
answered, "Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again, but whoever
drinks the water I give him will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give him will
become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life."
John 10 v 9 – 11:
I am the gate; whoever enters through me will be saved. He will come in and go
out, and find pasture. The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I
have come that they may have life, and have it to the full. "I am the good
shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.

Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given
to men by which we must be saved."
Acts 15 v 7 – 11:
After much discussion, Peter got up and addressed them: "Brothers, you know that
some time ago God made a choice among you that the Gentiles might hear from my
lips the message of the gospel and believe. God, who knows the heart, showed
that he accepted them by giving the Holy Spirit to them, just as he did to us.
He made no distinction between us and them, for he purified their hearts by
faith. Now then, why do you try to test God by putting on the necks of the
disciples a yoke that neither we nor our fathers have been able to bear? No! We
believe it is through the grace of our Lord Jesus that we are saved, just as
they are."
Romans 5 v 8 – 11:
But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners,
Christ died for us. Since we have now been justified by his blood, how much more
shall we be saved from God's wrath through him! For if, when we were God's
enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son, how much more,
having been reconciled, shall we be saved through his life! Not only is this so,
but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have
now received reconciliation.
Romans 5 v 15:
But the gift is not like the trespass. For if the many died by the trespass of
the one man, how much more did God's grace and the gift that came by the grace
of the one man, Jesus Christ, overflow to the many!
Romans 6 v 23:
For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ
Jesus our Lord.
Romans 8 v 31 - 33:
What, then, shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be
against us? He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all–how
will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things? Who will bring
any charge against those whom God has chosen? It is God who justifies.
Romans 11 v 6:

longer be grace.

Thanks be to God for his indescribable gift!

prepared in advance for us to do.

Hebrews 5 v 7 – 9:
During the days of Jesus' life on earth, he offered up prayers and petitions
with loud cries and tears to the one who could save him from death, and he was

obedience from what he suffered and, once made perfect, he became the source of
eternal salvation for all who obey him.
Hebrews 9 v 27 – 28:
Just as man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment, so Christ
was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people; and he will appear a

for him.
