will write them,"

With Christ

the dead, that we should bear fruit to God.
You Became Part
Of The Church
ACTS 2:47 NKJ 47 . . . And the Lord
added to the church daily those who were being saved.

all things under His feet, and gave Him to be head over all things

of His body . . . .

Of God

Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to
those who believe in His name:
2 CORINTHIANS 6:18 NKJ 18 "I
will be a Father to you, and you shall be My sons and daughters,
says the Lord Almighty."
1 JOHN 3:2 NKJ 2 Beloved, now we are
children of God . . . .
ROMANS 8:16 NKJ 16 The Spirit Himself
bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God,

faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me.
1 CORINTHIANS 6:17,19 NKJ 17 But he
who is joined to the Lord is one spirit with Him. 19 Or do
you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who
is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own?
2 CORINTHIANS 6:16 NKJ 16 . . . For
you are the temple of the living God. As God has said: "I will
dwell in them and walk among them. I will be their God, and they
shall be My people."
The Old You Died
ROMANS 6:6,8 NKJ 6 knowing this, that
our old man was crucified with Him, that the body of sin might be
done away with, that we should no longer be slaves of sin.

with Him,

and your life is hidden with Christ in God.

away; behold, all things have become new.

again, not of corruptible seed but incorruptible, through the word
of God which lives and abides forever,

passed from death into life.
1 JOHN 3:14-15 NKJ 14 We know that
we have passed from death to life, because we love the brethren.
He who does not love his brother abides in death. 15 Whoever
hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has
eternal life abiding in him.
1 JOHN 5:11-12 NKJ 11 And this is
the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life
is in His Son. 12 He who has the Son has life; he who does
not have the Son of God does not have life.
You Were Given A
New Heart

Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of
sin and death.
ROMANS 6:11,12,14,17,18 NKJ 11 Likewise
you also, reckon yourselves to be dead indeed to sin, but alive
to God in Christ Jesus our Lord. 12 Therefore do not let sin
reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in its lusts.
14 For sin shall not have dominion over you . . . . 17
. . . you were slaves of sin, yet you obeyed from the heart that
. . . doctrine . . . you were delivered. 18 And having been
set free from sin, you became slaves of righteousness.

our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins,
might live for righteousness -- by whose stripes you were healed.

And Blotted Out

you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God -- and
righteousness and sanctification and redemption --
2 CORINTHIANS 5:21 NKJ 21 For He made
Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness
of God in Him.
ROMANS 3:21-22 NKJ 21 But now the
righteousness of God apart from the law is revealed . . . 22
even the righteousness of God which is through faith in Jesus Christ
to all and on all who believe. . .
ROMANS 5:17,19 NKJ 17 . . . those
who receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness
will reign in life through the One, Jesus Christ.) 19 For as
by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so also by one
Man's obedience many will be made righteous.

one believes to righteousness, and with the mouth confession is
made to salvation.

name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of
those on earth, and of those under the earth,

do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to

will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 "If
you ask anything in My name, I will do it.

that day you will ask Me nothing. Most assuredly, I say to you,

will receive, that your joy may be full.

Over The Devil

authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. 19 "Go
therefore and make disciples of all . . . .

the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all
the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.

all things under His feet, and gave Him to be head over all things

recover."

faith . . . .
EPHESIANS 6:11-13 NKJ 11 Put on the
whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles
of the devil. 12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood,
but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of
the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness
in the heavenly places. 13 Therefore take up the whole armor
of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having
done all, to stand.
You Received An
Inheritance
GALATIANS 3:29 NKJ 29 And if you are
Christ's, then you are Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the
promise.
ROMANS 4:13 NKJ 13 For the promise
that he would be the heir of the world was not to Abraham or to
his seed through the law, but through the righteousness of faith.
EPHESIANS 1:3,11 NKJ 3 Blessed be
the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us
with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ,
11 in whom also we have obtained an inheritance. . .
COLOSSIANS 1:12 NKJ 12 giving thanks
to the Father who has qualified us to be partakers of the inheritance
of the saints in the light.
ROMANS 8:17 NKJ 17 and if children,
then heirs -- heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ . . . .

and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan
to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and an inheritance
among those who are sanctified by faith in Me.'

overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God and he
shall be My son.
You Became An Overcomer
1 JOHN 5:4-5 NKJ 4 For whatever is
born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has
overcome the world -- our faith. 5 Who is he who overcomes
the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?
1 JOHN 4:4 NKJ 4 You are of God, little
children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater
than he who is in the world.
ROMANS 8:37 NKJ 37 Yet in all these
things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us.
MARK 9:23 NKJ 23 Jesus said to him,
"If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes."
