But what doth it say? `Nigh thee is the saying--in thy mouth, and in thy heart:' that is, the saying of the faith, that we preach;
Producing the fruit of the lips, `Peace, peace,' to the far off, and to the near, And I have healed him, said Jehovah.
to this one do all the prophets testify, that through his name every one that is believing in him doth receive remission of sins.'
and they said, `Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved--thou and thy house;'
so then the faith is by a report, and the report through a saying of God,
this only do I wish to learn from you--by works of law the Spirit did ye receive, or by the hearing of faith?
He, therefore, who is supplying to you the Spirit, and working mighty acts among you--by works of law or by the hearing of faith is it ?
that he might sanctify it, having cleansed it with the bathing of the water in the saying,
For very near unto thee is the word, in thy mouth, and in thy heart--to do it.
These things placing before the brethren, thou shalt be a good ministrant of Jesus Christ, being nourished by the words of the faith, and of the good teaching, which thou didst follow after,
being begotten again, not out of seed corruptible, but incorruptible, through a word of God--living and remaining--to the age;
and the saying of the Lord doth remain--to the age; and this is the saying that was proclaimed good news to you.
