~ GEN 2:23 The man said, "This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called 'woman,' for she was taken out of man." GEN 2:24 For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and they will become one flesh. ~ GEN 3:16 To the woman he said, "I will greatly increase your pains in childbearing; with pain you will give birth to children. Your desire will be for your husband, and he will rule over you." ~ GEN 18:19 For I have chosen him, so that he will direct his children and his household after him to keep the way of the LORD by doing what is right and just, so that the LORD will bring about for Abraham what he has promised him." ~ GEN 35:2 So Jacob said to his household and to all who were with him, "Get rid of the foreign gods you have with you, and purify yourselves and change your clothes. ~ GEN 45:24 Then he sent his brothers away, and as they were leaving he said to them, "Don't quarrel on the way!" ~ GEN 50:17 'This is what you are to say to Joseph: I ask you to forgive your brothers the sins and the wrongs they committed in treating you so badly.' Now please forgive the sins of the servants of the God of your father." When their message came to him, Joseph wept. ~ GEN 50:18 His brothers then came and threw themselves down before him. "We are your slaves," they said. GEN 50:19 But Joseph said to them, "Don't be afraid. Am I in the place of God? ~ GEN 50:20 You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives. GEN 50:21 So then, don't be afraid. I will provide for you and your children." And he reassured them and spoke kindly to them. ~ DEU 4:9 Only be careful, and watch yourselves closely so that you do not forget the things your eyes have seen or let them slip from your heart as long as you live. Teach them to your children and to their children after them. ~ DEU 4:10 Remember the day you stood before the LORD your God at Horeb, when he said to me, "Assemble the people before me to hear my words so that they may learn to revere me as long as they live in the land and may teach them to their children." ~ DEU 14:26 Use the silver to buy whatever you like: cattle, sheep, wine or other fermented drink, or anything you wish. Then you and your household shall eat there in the presence of the LORD your God and rejoice. ~ DEU 29:18 Make sure there is no man or woman, clan or tribe among you today whose heart turns away from the LORD our God to go and worship the gods of those nations; make sure there is no root among you that produces such bitter poison. ~ JOS 24:15 But if serving the LORD seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your forefathers served beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the LORD." ~ 2SA 6:20 When David returned home to bless his household, Michal daughter of Saul came out to meet him and said, "How the king of Israel has distinguished himself today, disrobing in the sight of the slave girls of his servants as any vulgar fellow would!" ~ EST 1:20 Then when the king's edict is proclaimed throughout all his vast realm, all the women will respect their husbands, from the least to the greatest." ~ EST 1:22 He sent dispatches to all parts of the kingdom, to each province in its own script and to each people in its own language, proclaiming in each people's tongue that every man should be ruler over his own household. ~ JOB 1:5 When a period of feasting had run its course, Job would send and have them purified. Early in the morning he would sacrifice a burnt offering for each of them, thinking, "Perhaps my children have sinned and cursed God in their hearts." This was Job's regular custom. ~ PSA 101:7 No one who practices deceit will dwell in my house; no one who speaks falsely will stand in my presence. ~ PSA 128:3 Your wife will be like a fruitful vine within your house; your sons will be like olive shoots around your table. ~ PSA 128:6 and may you live to see your children's children. Peace be upon Israel. ~ PSA 133:1 How good and pleasant it is when brothers live together in unity! ~ PRO 31:27 She watches over the affairs of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness. ~ JER 10:25 Pour out your wrath on the nations that do not acknowledge you, on the peoples who do not call on your name. For they have devoured Jacob; they have devoured him completely and destroyed his homeland. ~ MAT 18:21 Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, "Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother when he sins against me? Up to seven times?" MAT 18:22 Jesus answered, "I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times. ~ JOH 11:1 Now a man named Lazarus was sick. He was from Bethany, the village of Mary and her sister Martha. JOH 11:2 This Mary, whose brother Lazarus now lay sick, was the same one who poured perfume on the Lord and wiped his feet with her hair. ~ JOH 11:3 So the sisters sent word to Jesus, "Lord, the one you love is sick." JOH 11:4 When he heard this, Jesus said, "This sickness will not end in death. No, it is for God's glory so that God's Son may be glorified through it." JOH 11:5 Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus. ~ ACT 10:2 He and all his family were devout and God-fearing; he gave generously to those in need and prayed to God regularly. ~ ACT 10:33 So I sent for you immediately, and it was good of you to come. Now we are all here in the presence of God to listen to everything the Lord has commanded you to tell us." ~ ACT 16:15 When she and the members of her household were baptized, she invited us to her home. "If you consider me a believer in the Lord," she said, "come and stay at my house." And she persuaded us. ~ ACT 16:31 They replied, "Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved--you and your household." ACT 16:32 Then they spoke the word of the Lord to him and to all the others in his house. ~ ACT 16:33 At that hour of the night the jailer took them and washed their wounds; then immediately he and all his family were baptized. ACT 16:34 The jailer brought them into his house and set a meal before them; he was filled with joy because he had come to believe in God--he and his whole family. ~ ACT 18:8 Crispus, the synagogue ruler, and his entire household believed in the Lord; and many of the Corinthians who heard him believed and were baptized. ~ 1CO 7:10 To the married I give this command (not I, but the Lord): A wife must not separate from her husband. ~ 1CO 11:7 A man ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of man. 1CO 11:8 For man did not come from woman, but woman from man; 1CO 11:9 neither was man created for woman, but woman for man. ~ 1CO 16:19 The churches in the province of Asia send you greetings. Aquila and Priscilla greet you warmly in the Lord, and so does the church that meets at their house. ~ EPH 5:22 Wives, submit to your husbands as to the Lord. EPH 5:23 For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior. EPH 5:24 Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything. ~ COL 3:18 Wives, submit to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord. ~ 1TI 3:2 Now the overseer must be above reproach, the husband of but one wife, temperate, self-controlled, respectable, hospitable, able to teach, 1TI 3:3 not given to drunkenness, not violent but gentle, not quarrelsome, not a lover of money. ~ 1TI 3:4 He must manage his own family well and see that his children obey him with proper respect. 1TI 3:5 (If anyone does not know how to manage his own family, how can he take care of God's church?) ~ 1TI 3:12 A deacon must be the husband of but one wife and must manage his children and his household well. ~ 2TI 1:5 I have been reminded of your sincere faith, which first lived in your grandmother Lois and in your mother Eunice and, I am persuaded, now lives in you also. ~ 1PE 3:1 Wives, in the same way be submissive to your husbands so that, if any of them do not believe the word, they may be won over without words by the behavior of their wives, ~ 1PE 3:6 like Sarah, who obeyed Abraham and called him her master. You are her daughters if you do what is right and do not give way to fear. ~ GEN 33:4 But Esau ran to meet Jacob and embraced him; he threw his arms around his neck and kissed him. And they wept. ~ GEN 33:11 Please accept the present that was brought to you, for God has been gracious to me and I have all I need." And because Jacob insisted, Esau accepted it. ~ GEN 45:5 And now, do not be distressed and do not be angry with yourselves for selling me here, because it was to save lives that God sent me ahead of you. ~ GEN 45:6 For two years now there has been famine in the land, and for the next five years there will not be plowing and reaping. GEN 45:7 But God sent me ahead of you to preserve for you a remnant on earth and to save your lives by a great deliverance. ~ GEN 45:8 "So then, it was not you who sent me here, but God. He made me father to Pharaoh, lord of his entire household and ruler of all Egypt. GEN 45:9 Now hurry back to my father and say to him, 'This is what your son Joseph says: God has made me lord of all Egypt. Come down to me; don't delay. ~ GEN 45:10 You shall live in the region of Goshen and be near me--you, your children and grandchildren, your flocks and herds, and all you have. GEN 45:11 I will provide for you there, because five years of famine are still to come. Otherwise you and your household and all who belong to you will become destitute.' ~ GEN 45:12 "You can see for yourselves, and so can my brother Benjamin, that it is really I who am speaking to you. GEN 45:13 Tell my father about all the honor accorded me in Egypt and about everything you have seen. And bring my father down here quickly." ~ GEN 45:14 Then he threw his arms around his brother Benjamin and wept, and Benjamin embraced him, weeping. GEN 45:15 And he kissed all his brothers and wept over them. Afterward his brothers talked with him. ~ GEN 50:19 But Joseph said to them, "Don't be afraid. Am I in the place of God? GEN 50:20 You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives. GEN 50:21 So then, don't be afraid. I will provide for you and your children." And he reassured them and spoke kindly to them. ~ EXO 23:4 "If you come across your enemy's ox or donkey wandering off, be sure to take it back to him. EXO 23:5 If you see the donkey of someone who hates you fallen down under its load, do not leave it there; be sure you help him with it. ~ NUM 12:1 Miriam and Aaron began to talk against Moses because of his Cushite wife, for he had married a Cushite. NUM 12:2 "Has the LORD spoken only through Moses?" they asked. "Hasn't he also spoken through us?" And the LORD heard this. ~ NUM 12:3 (Now Moses was a very humble man, more humble than anyone else on the face of the earth.) NUM 12:4 At once the LORD said to Moses, Aaron and Miriam, "Come out to the Tent of Meeting, all three of you." So the three of them came out. ~ NUM 12:5 Then the LORD came down in a pillar of cloud; he stood at the entrance to the Tent and summoned Aaron and Miriam. When both of them stepped forward, NUM 12:6 he said, "Listen to my words: "When a prophet of the LORD is among you, I reveal myself to him in visions, I speak to him in dreams. ~ NUM 12:7 But this is not true of my servant Moses; he is faithful in all my house. NUM 12:8 With him I speak face to face, clearly and not in riddles; he sees the form of the LORD. Why then were you not afraid to speak against my servant Moses?" NUM 12:9 The anger of the LORD burned against them, and he left them. ~ NUM 12:10 When the cloud lifted from above the Tent, there stood Miriam--leprous, like snow. Aaron turned toward her and saw that she had leprosy; NUM 12:11 and he said to Moses, "Please, my lord, do not hold against us the sin we have so foolishly committed. NUM 12:12 Do not let her be like a stillborn infant coming from its mother's womb with its flesh half eaten away." NUM 12:13 So Moses cried out to the LORD, "O God, please heal her!" ~ 1SA 24:10 This day you have seen with your own eyes how the LORD delivered you into my hands in the cave. Some urged me to kill you, but I spared you; I said, 'I will not lift my hand against my master, because he is the LORD'S anointed.' ~ 1SA 24:11 See, my father, look at this piece of your robe in my hand! I cut off the corner of your robe but did not kill you. Now understand and recognize that I am not guilty of wrongdoing or rebellion. I have not wronged you, but you are hunting me down to take my life. 1SA 24:12 May the LORD judge between you and me. And may the LORD avenge the wrongs you have done to me, but my hand will not touch you. ~ 1SA 26:9 But David said to Abishai, "Don't destroy him! Who can lay a hand on the LORD'S anointed and be guiltless? ~ 1SA 26:23 The LORD rewards every man for his righteousness and faithfulness. The LORD delivered you into my hands today, but I would not lay a hand on the LORD'S anointed. ~ 2SA 1:14 David asked him, "Why were you not afraid to lift your hand to destroy the LORD'S anointed?" 2SA 1:15 Then David called one of his men and said, "Go, strike him down!" So he struck him down, and he died. 2SA 1:16 For David had said to him, "Your blood be on your own head. Your own mouth testified against you when you said, 'I killed the LORD'S anointed.'" 2SA 1:17 David took up this lament concerning Saul and his son Jonathan, ~ 2SA 16:9 Then Abishai son of Zeruiah said to the king, "Why should this dead dog curse my lord the king? Let me go over and cut off his head." 2SA 16:10 But the king said, "What do you and I have in common, you sons of Zeruiah? If he is cursing because the LORD said to him, 'Curse David,' who can ask, 'Why do you do this?'" ~ 2SA 16:11 David then said to Abishai and all his officials, "My son, who is of my own flesh, is trying to take my life. How much more, then, this Benjamite! Leave him alone; let him curse, for the LORD has told him to. 2SA 16:12 It may be that the LORD will see my distress and repay me with good for the cursing I am receiving today." 2SA 16:13 So David and his men continued along the road while Shimei was going along the hillside opposite him, cursing as he went and throwing stones at him and showering him with dirt. ~ 2SA 19:23 So the king said to Shimei, "You shall not die." And the king promised him on oath. 1KI 1:53 Then King Solomon sent men, and they brought him down from the altar. And Adonijah came and bowed down to King Solomon, and Solomon said, "Go to your home." ~ 1KI 2:8 "And remember, you have with you Shimei son of Gera, the Benjamite from Bahurim, who called down bitter curses on me the day I went to Mahanaim. When he came down to meet me at the Jordan, I swore to him by the LORD: 'I will not put you to death by the sword.' 1KI 2:9 But now, do not consider him innocent. You are a man of wisdom; you will know what to do to him. Bring his gray head down to the grave in blood." ~ 1KI 13:3 That same day the man of God gave a sign: "This is the sign the LORD has declared: The altar will be split apart and the ashes on it will be poured out." 1KI 13:4 When King Jeroboam heard what the man of God cried out against the altar at Bethel, he stretched out his hand from the altar and said, "Seize him!" But the hand he stretched out toward the man shriveled up, so that he could not pull it back. ~ 1KI 13:5 Also, the altar was split apart and its ashes poured out according to the sign given by the man of God by the word of the LORD. 1KI 13:6 Then the king said to the man of God, "Intercede with the LORD your God and pray for me that my hand may be restored." So the man of God interceded with the LORD, and the king's hand was restored and became as it was before. ~ PRO 19:11 A man's wisdom gives him patience; it is to his glory to overlook an offense. ~ PRO 24:17 Do not gloat when your enemy falls; when he stumbles, do not let your heart rejoice, ~ PRO 24:29 Do not say, "I'll do to him as he has done to me; I'll pay that man back for what he did." ~ PRO 25:21 If your enemy is hungry, give him food to eat; if he is thirsty, give him water to drink. PRO 25:22 In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head, and the LORD will reward you. ~ ECC 7:21 Do not pay attention to every word people say, or you may hear your servant cursing you-- ~ MAT 5:7 Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy. ~ MAT 5:39 But I tell you, Do not resist an evil person. If someone strikes you on the right cheek, turn to him the other also. MAT 5:40 And if someone wants to sue you and take your tunic, let him have your cloak as well. MAT 5:41 If someone forces you to go one mile, go with him two miles. ~ MAT 5:43 "You have heard that it was said, 'Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' MAT 5:44 But I tell you: Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, MAT 5:45 that you may be sons of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. MAT 5:46 If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Are not even the tax collectors doing that? ~ MAT 6:12 Forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. ~ MAT 6:14 For if you forgive men when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. MAT 6:15 But if you do not forgive men their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins. ~ MAT 18:21 Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, "Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother when he sins against me? Up to seven times?" MAT 18:22 Jesus answered, "I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times. MAT 18:23 "Therefore, the kingdom of heaven is like a king who wanted to settle accounts with his servants. ~ MAT 18:24 As he began the settlement, a man who owed him ten thousand talents was brought to him. MAT 18:25 Since he was not able to pay, the master ordered that he and his wife and his children and all that he had be sold to repay the debt. MAT 18:26 "The servant fell on his knees before him. 'Be patient with me,' he begged, 'and I will pay back everything.' MAT 18:27 The servant's master took pity on him, canceled the debt and let him go. ~ MAT 18:28 "But when that servant went out, he found one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred denarii. He grabbed him and began to choke him. 'Pay back what you owe me!' he demanded. MAT 18:29 "His fellow servant fell to his knees and begged him, 'Be patient with me, and I will pay you back.' MAT 18:30 "But he refused. Instead, he went off and had the man thrown into prison until he could pay the debt. MAT 18:31 When the other servants saw what had happened, they were greatly distressed and went and told their master everything that had happened. ~ MAT 18:32 "Then the master called the servant in. 'You wicked servant,' he said, 'I canceled all that debt of yours because you begged me to. MAT 18:33 Shouldn't you have had mercy on your fellow servant just as I had on you?' MAT 18:34 In anger his master turned him over to the jailers to be tortured, until he should pay back all he owed. MAT 18:35 "This is how my heavenly Father will treat each of you unless you forgive your brother from your heart." ~ MAR 11:25 And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive him, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins." ~ LUK 6:35 But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High, because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked. LUK 6:36 Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful. ~ LUK 6:37 "Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven. ~ LUK 17:3 So watch yourselves. "If your brother sins, rebuke him, and if he repents, forgive him. LUK 17:4 If he sins against you seven times in a day, and seven times comes back to you and says, 'I repent,' forgive him." ~ LUK 23:34 Jesus said, "Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing." And they divided up his clothes by casting lots. ~ ROM 12:14 Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse. ~ ROM 12:17 Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everybody. ~ ROM 12:19 Do not take revenge, my friends, but leave room for God's wrath, for it is written: "It is mine to avenge; I will repay," says the Lord. ~ ROM 12:20 On the contrary: "If your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink. In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head." ~ ROM 12:21 Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good. ~ 1CO 4:12 We work hard with our own hands. When we are cursed, we bless; when we are persecuted, we endure it; 1CO 4:13 when we are slandered, we answer kindly. Up to this moment we have become the scum of the earth, the refuse of the world. ~ EPH 4:32 Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you. ~ COL 3:13 Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. ~ PHM 1:10 I appeal to you for my son Onesimus, who became my son while I was in chains. ~ 1PE 3:9 Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult, but with blessing, because to this you were called so that you may inherit a blessing. ~ GEN 15:6 Abram believed the LORD, and he credited it to him as righteousness. ~ GEN 20:6 Then God said to him in the dream, "Yes, I know you did this with a clear conscience, and so I have kept you from sinning against me. That is why I did not let you touch her. ~ DEU 7:6 For you are a people holy to the LORD your God. The LORD your God has chosen you out of all the peoples on the face of the earth to be his people, his treasured possession. DEU 7:7 The LORD did not set his affection on you and choose you because you were more numerous than other peoples, for you were the fewest of all peoples. DEU 7:8 But it was because the LORD loved you and kept the oath he swore to your forefathers that he brought you out with a mighty hand and redeemed you from the land of slavery, from the power of Pharaoh king of Egypt. ~ DEU 7:9 Know therefore that the LORD your God is God; he is the faithful God, keeping his covenant of love to a thousand generations of those who love him and keep his commands. ~ DEU 9:4 After the LORD your God has driven them out before you, do not say to yourself, "The LORD has brought me here to take possession of this land because of my righteousness." No, it is on account of the wickedness of these nations that the LORD is going to drive them out before you. DEU 9:5 It is not because of your righteousness or your integrity that you are going in to take possession of their land; but on account of the wickedness of these nations, the LORD your God will drive them out before you, to accomplish what he swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. ~ DEU 9:6 Understand, then, that it is not because of your righteousness that the LORD your God is giving you this good land to possess, for you are a stiff-necked people. ~ JOB 10:12 You gave me life and showed me kindness, and in your providence watched over my spirit. ~ JOB 22:2 "Can a man be of benefit to God? Can even a wise man benefit him? JOB 22:3 What pleasure would it give the Almighty if you were righteous? What would he gain if your ways were blameless? ~ PSA 94:17 Unless the LORD had given me help, I would soon have dwelt in the silence of death. PSA 94:18 When I said, "My foot is slipping," your love, O LORD, supported me. PSA 94:19 When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought joy to my soul. ~ PSA 138:3 When I called, you answered me; you made me bold and stouthearted. ~ PSA 143:11 For your name's sake, O LORD, preserve my life; in your righteousness, bring me out of trouble. ~ DAN 9:18 Give ear, O God, and hear; open your eyes and see the desolation of the city that bears your Name. We do not make requests of you because we are righteous, but because of your great mercy. ~ DAN 10:18 Again the one who looked like a man touched me and gave me strength. DAN 10:19 "Do not be afraid, O man highly esteemed," he said. "Peace! Be strong now; be strong." When he spoke to me, I was strengthened and said, "Speak, my lord, since you have given me strength." ~ JOH 6:44 "No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him, and I will raise him up at the last day. ~ JOH 6:45 It is written in the Prophets: 'They will all be taught by God.' Everyone who listens to the Father and learns from him comes to me. ~ JOH 17:11 I will remain in the world no longer, but they are still in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, protect them by the power of your name--the name you gave me--so that they may be one as we are one. ~ JOH 17:12 While I was with them, I protected them and kept them safe by that name you gave me. None has been lost except the one doomed to destruction so that Scripture would be fulfilled. ~ JOH 17:15 My prayer is not that you take them out of the world but that you protect them from the evil one. ~ ACT 4:29 Now, Lord, consider their threats and enable your servants to speak your word with great boldness. ACT 4:30 Stretch out your hand to heal and perform miraculous signs and wonders through the name of your holy servant Jesus." ~ ACT 26:22 But I have had God's help to this very day, and so I stand here and testify to small and great alike. I am saying nothing beyond what the prophets and Moses said would happen-- ~ ROM 3:22 This righteousness from God comes through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference, ROM 3:23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, ROM 3:24 and are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus. ~ ROM 4:4 Now when a man works, his wages are not credited to him as a gift, but as an obligation. ROM 4:5 However, to the man who does not work but trusts God who justifies the wicked, his faith is credited as righteousness. ~ ROM 4:16 Therefore, the promise comes by faith, so that it may be by grace and may be guaranteed to all Abraham's offspring--not only to those who are of the law but also to those who are of the faith of Abraham. He is the father of us all. ~ ROM 5:2 through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God. ~ ROM 5:6 You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly. ROM 5:7 Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous man, though for a good man someone might possibly dare to die. ROM 5:8 But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. ~ ROM 5:15 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! ROM 5:16 Again, the gift of God is not like the result of the one man's sin: The judgment followed one sin and brought condemnation, but the gift followed many trespasses and brought justification. ~ ROM 5:17 For if, by the trespass of the one man, death reigned through that one man, how much more will those who receive God's abundant provision of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man, Jesus Christ. ROM 5:18 Consequently, just as the result of one trespass was condemnation for all men, so also the result of one act of righteousness was justification that brings life for all men. ~ ROM 5:19 For just as through the disobedience of the one man the many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of the one man the many will be made righteous. ROM 5:20 The law was added so that the trespass might increase. But where sin increased, grace increased all the more, ROM 5:21 so that, just as sin reigned in death, so also grace might reign through righteousness to bring eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. ~ ROM 9:10 Not only that, but Rebekah's children had one and the same father, our father Isaac. ROM 9:11 Yet, before the twins were born or had done anything good or bad--in order that God's purpose in election might stand: ROM 9:12 not by works but by him who calls--she was told, "The older will serve the younger." ~ ROM 9:13 Just as it is written: "Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated." ROM 9:14 What then shall we say? Is God unjust? Not at all! ROM 9:15 For he says to Moses, "I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion." ROM 9:16 It does not, therefore, depend on man's desire or effort, but on God's mercy. ~ ROM 11:5 So too, at the present time there is a remnant chosen by grace.
