Key Scriptures


Matthew 28:8-10 tniv

8 So the women hurried away from the tomb, afraid yet filled with joy, and ran to tell his disciples. 9 Suddenly Jesus met them. "Greetings," he said. They came to him, clasped his feet and worshiped him. 10 Then Jesus said to them, "Do not be afraid. Go and tell my brothers to go to Galilee; there they will see me."


John 20:19, 26 tniv

19 On the evening of that first day of the week, when the disciples were together, with the doors locked for fear of the Jewish leaders, Jesus came and stood among them and said, "Peace be with you!" ...

26 A week later his disciples were in the house again, and Thomas was with them. Though the doors were locked, Jesus came and stood among them and said, "Peace be with you!"


Matthew 12:48-50 tniv

48 He replied to him, "Who is my mother, and who are my brothers?" 49 Pointing to his disciples, he said, "Here are my mother and my brothers. 50 For whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother."


2 Corinthians 5:17 tniv

17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!


Titus 3:3-7 tniv

3 At one time we too were foolish, disobedient, deceived and enslaved by all kinds of passions and pleasures. We lived in malice and envy, being hated and hating one another. 4 But when the kindness and love of God our Savior appeared, 5 he saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit, 6 whom he poured out on us generously through Jesus Christ our Savior, 7 so that, having been justified by his grace, we might become heirs having the hope of eternal life.


Ephesians 4:32-5:1 tniv

4:32 Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you. 5:1 Follow God's example, therefore, as dearly loved children.


Matthew 6:9-15 tniv

9 "This, then, is how you should pray:

"'Our Father in heaven,
     hallowed be your name,

10 your kingdom come,
     your will be done,
     on earth as it is in heaven.

11 Give us today our daily bread.

12 And forgive us our debts,
     as we also have forgiven our debtors.

13 And lead us not into temptation,
     but deliver us from the evil one.'

14 For if you forgive others when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. 15 But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins."
