John 3:13-21 30+ in Depth RSV

Luke 12:41-48 Peter said, "Lord, are you telling this parable for us or for all?"

And the Lord said, "Who then is the faithful and wise steward, whom his master will set over his household, to give them their portion of food at the proper time?

Blessed is that servant whom his master when he comes will find so doing.

Truly I tell you, he will set him over all his possessions.

But if that servant says to himself, 'My master is delayed in coming,' and begins to beat the menservants and the maidservants, and to eat and drink and get drunk, the master of that servant will come on a day when he does not expect him and at an hour he does not know, and will punish him, and put him with the unfaithful.

And that servant who knew his master's will, but did not make ready or act according to his will, shall receive a severe beating.

But he who did not know, and did what deserved a beating, shall receive a light beating, Every one to whom much is given, of him will much be required; and of him to whom men commit much they will demand the more.

Luke 19:8-10 And Zac-chae'us stood and said to the Lord, "Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have defrauded any one of anything, I restore it fourfold."

And Jesus said to him, "Today salvation has come to this house, since he also is a son of Abraham.

For the Son of man came to seek and to save the lost."

Romans 5:8-9 But God shows his love for us in that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us.

Since, therefore, we are now justified by his blood, much more shall we be saved by him from the wrath of God.

Romans 8:31-32 What then shall we say to this? If God is for us, who is against us?

He who did not spare his own Son but gave him up for us all, will he not also give us all things with him?

Romans 10:6-9 But the righteousness based on faith says, Do not say in your heart, "Who will ascend into heaven" (that is, to bring Christ down)

or "Who will descend into the abyss?" (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead),

But what does it say? The word is near you, on your lips and in your heart (that is, the word of faith, which we preach);

because, if you confess with your lips that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him, you will be saved.

1 Corinthians 15:9-11 For I am the lest of the apostles, unfit to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.

But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace toward me was not in vain. On the contrary, I worked harder than any of them, though it was not I, but the grace of God which is with Me,

Whether then it was I or they, so we preach and so you believed.
