So, since we have come to be considered righteous by God because of our trust, let us continue to have shalom with God through our Lord, Yeshua the Messiah.For if we were reconciled with God through his Son’s death when we were enemies, how much more will we be delivered by his life, now that we are reconciled!And not only will we be delivered in the future, but we are boasting about God right now, because he has acted through our Lord Yeshua the Messiah, through whom we have already received that reconciliation.Here is how it works: it was through one individual that sin entered the world, and through sin, death; and in this way death passed through to the whole human race, inasmuch as everyone sinned.Sin was indeed present in the world before Torah was given, but sin is not counted as such when there is no Torah.Nevertheless death ruled from Adam until Moshe, even over those whose sinning was not exactly like Adam’s violation of a direct command. In this, Adam prefigured the one who was to come.But the free gift is not like the offence. For if, because of one man’s offence, many died, then how much more has God’s grace, that is, the gracious gift of one man, Yeshua the Messiah, overflowed to many!No, the free gift is not like what resulted from one man’s sinning; for from one sinner came judgment that brought condemnation; but the free gift came after many offences and brought acquittal.For if, because of the offence of one man, death ruled through that one man; how much more will those receiving the overflowing grace, that is, the gift of being considered righteous, rule in life through the one man Yeshua the Messiah!In other words, just as it was through one offence that all people came under condemnation, so also it is through one righteous act that all people come to be considered righteous.For just as through the disobedience of the one man, many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of the other man, many will be made righteous.Also through him and on the ground of our trust, we have gained access to this grace in which we stand; so let us boast about the hope of experiencing God’s glory.

But now this is what Adonai says, he who created you, Ya‘akov, he who formed you, Isra’el: “Don’t be afraid, for I have redeemed you; I am calling you by your name; you are mine.“You are my witnesses,” says Adonai, “and my servant whom I have chosen, so that you can know and trust me and understand that I am he — no god was produced before me, nor will any be after me.I, yes I, am Adonai; besides me there is no deliverer.I have declared, saved and proclaimed — not some alien god among you. Therefore you are my witnesses,” says Adonai. “I am God.Since days began, I have been he. No one can deliver from my hand. When I act, who can reverse it?”Here is what Adonai, your redeemer, the Holy One of Isra’el, says: “For your sake I have sent [an army] to Bavel and knocked down the fleeing Kasdim, all of them; their songs of triumph are now lamentations.I am Adonai, your Holy One, the Creator of Isra’el, your King.”Here is what Adonai says, who made a way in the sea, a path through the raging waves;who led out chariot and horse, the army in its strength — they lay down, never to rise again, snuffed out and quenched like a wick:“Stop dwelling on past events and brooding over times gone by;I am doing something new; it’s springing up — can’t you see it? I am making a road in the desert, rivers in the wasteland.When you pass through water, I will be with you; when you pass through rivers, they will not overwhelm you; when you walk through fire, you will not be scorched — the flame will not burn you.The wild animals will honor me, the jackals and the ostriches; because I put water in the desert, rivers in the wasteland, for my chosen people to drink,the people I formed for myself, so that they would proclaim my praise.But you haven’t called on me, Ya‘akov; because you have grown weary of me, Isra’el.You have not brought me sheep for your burnt offerings, you have not honored me with your sacrifices. I didn’t burden you by requiring grain offerings. or weary you by demanding frankincense.You have not spent money to buy me sweet cane or filled me with the fat of your sacrifices. Instead, you have burdened me with your sins and wearied me with your crimes.I, yes I, am the one who blots out your offenses for my own sake; I will not remember your sins.Remind me when we’re in court together — tell your side, make the case that you are right.Your first father sinned, and your spokesmen rebelled against me.Therefore I repudiated the officials of the sanctuary, delivered Ya‘akov to the curse of destruction, and subjected Isra’el to scorn.For I am Adonai, your God, the Holy One of Isra’el, your Savior — I have given Egypt as your ransom, Ethiopia and S’va for you.

and this hope does not let us down, because God’s love for us has already been poured out in our hearts through the Ruach HaKodesh who has been given to us.
See what love the Father has lavished on us in letting us be called God’s children! For that is what we are. The reason the world does not know us is that it has not known him.Here is how one can distinguish clearly between God’s children and those of the Adversary: everyone who does not continue doing what is right is not from God. Likewise, anyone who fails to keep loving his brother is not from God.For this is the message which you have heard from the beginning: that we should love each otherand not be like Kayin, who was from the Evil One and murdered his own brother. Why did he murder him? Because his own actions were evil, and his brother’s were righteous.Don’t be amazed, brothers, if the world hates you.We, for our part, know that we have passed from death to life because we keep loving the brothers. The person who fails to keep on loving is still under the power of death.Everyone who hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life in him.The way that we have come to know love is through his having laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for the brothers!If someone has worldly possessions and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart against him, how can he be loving God?Children, let us love not with words and talk, but with actions and in reality!Here is how we will know that we are from the truth and will set our hearts at rest in his presence:Dear friends, we are God’s children now; and it has not yet been made clear what we will become. We do know that when he appears, we will be like him; because we will see him as he really is.
There is salvation in no one else! For there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by whom we must be saved!”
But God demonstrates his own love for us in that the Messiah died on our behalf while we were still sinners.
He rescued us from such deadly peril, and he will rescue us again! The one in whom we have placed our hope will indeed continue to rescue us.
So, my dear friends, just as you have always obeyed when I was with you, it is even more important that you obey now when I am away from you: keep working out your deliverance with fear and trembling,for God is the one working among you both the willing and the working for what pleases him.
