Because you believed the good news, you are saved. But you must hold firmly to the message I preached to you. If you don’t, you have believed it for nothing.

By this gospel you are saved, if you hold firmly to the word I preached to you. Otherwise, you have believed in vain.

and by which you are being saved, if you hold fast to the word I preached to you— unless you believed in vain.

It is this Good News that saves you if you continue to believe the message I told you— unless, of course, you believed something that was never true in the first place.

and by which you are being saved, if you hold to the message I preached to you— unless you believed in vain.

by which you also are saved, if you hold firmly to the word which I preached to you, unless you believed in vain.

by which also you are saved, if you hold fast that word which I preached to you— unless you believed in vain.

by which also ye are saved, if ye hold fast the word which I preached unto you, except ye believed in vain.

You are also saved by it, if you hold to the message I proclaimed to you— unless you believed for no purpose.

By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.

But Christ is faithful as the Son over the house of God. And we are his house if we hold tightly to what we are certain about. We must also hold tightly to the hope we boast in.

So we must pay the most careful attention to what we have heard. Then we will not drift away from it.

God’s grace has saved you because of your faith in Christ. Your salvation doesn’t come from anything you do. It is God’s gift.

God has saved us. He has chosen us to live a holy life. It wasn’t because of anything we have done. It was because of his own purpose and grace. Through Christ Jesus, God gave us this grace even before time began.

We belong to Christ if we hold tightly to the faith we had at first. But we must hold it tightly until the end.

It is the same with faith. If it doesn’t cause us to do something, it’s dead.

Have you experienced so much for nothing? And was it really for nothing?

Jesus spoke to the Jews who had believed him.“ If you obey my teaching,” he said,“ you are really my disciples.Then you will know the truth. And the truth will set you free.”

A person’s body without their spirit is dead. In the same way, faith without good deeds is dead.

Suppose a person claims to have faith but doesn’t act on their faith. My brothers and sisters, can this kind of faith save them?

The message of the cross seems foolish to those who are lost and dying. But it is God’s power to us who are being saved.

We have a great high priest. He has gone up into heaven. He is Jesus the Son of God. So let us hold firmly to what we say we believe.

My son, do not forget my teaching. Keep my commands in your heart.

The seed on rocky ground stands for those who hear the message and receive it with joy. But they have no roots. They believe for a while. But when they are tested, they fall away from the faith.

But you must keep your faith steady and firm. You must not move away from the hope the good news holds out to you. This is the good news that you heard. It has been preached to every creature under heaven. I, Paul, now serve the good news.

My son, keep your father’s command. Don’t turn away from your mother’s teaching.Always tie them on your heart. Put them around your neck.When you walk, they will guide you. When you sleep, they will watch over you. When you wake up, they will speak to you.Your father’s command is like a lamp. Your mother’s teaching is like a light. And whatever instructs and corrects you leads to life.

I want to preach it because I’m not ashamed of the good news. It is God’s power to save everyone who believes. It is meant first for the Jews. It is meant also for the Gentiles.

Hold on to my teaching and don’t let it go. Guard it well, because it is your life.

We work together with God. So we are asking you not to receive God’s grace and then do nothing with it.

Then his people believed his promises and sang praise to him.But they soon forgot what he had done. They didn’t wait for what he had planned to happen.

Let us hold firmly to the hope we claim to have. The God who promised is faithful.

Brothers and sisters, remain strong in the faith. Hold on to what we taught you. We passed our teachings on to you by what we preached and wrote.

And if Christ has not been raised, what we preach doesn’t mean anything. Your faith doesn’t mean anything either.

They praised God. They were respected by all the people. Every day the Lord added to their group those who were being saved.

Simon himself believed and was baptized. He followed Philip everywhere. He was amazed by the great signs and miracles he saw.

Think about how kind God is! Also think about how firm he is! He was hard on those who stopped following him. But he is kind to you. So you must continue to live in his kindness. If you don’t, you also will be cut off.

God wisely planned that the world would not know him through its own wisdom. It pleased God to use the foolish things we preach to save those who believe.

Buy the truth and don’t sell it. Get wisdom, instruction and understanding as well.

God considers us to be the pleasing smell that Christ is spreading. He is spreading it among people who are being saved and people who are dying.

So this is what we preach, whether I or the other apostles who preached to you. And that is what you believed.We have preached that Christ has been raised from the dead. So how can some of you say that no one rises from the dead?
