Let thine heart retain my words:
keep my commandments, and live.

a crown of glory shall she deliver to thee.

let her not go:
keep her;
for she is thy life.

Verily, verily, I say unto thee,

How can a man be born when he is old?
can he enter the second time into his mother's womb,
and be born?
5 Jesus answered,
Verily, verily, I say unto thee,
Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit,

and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
7 Marvel not that I said unto thee,
Ye must be born again.

the Spirit of truth, is come,
he will guide you into all truth:

and he will shew you things to come.
14 He shall glorify me:
for he shall receive of mine,
and shall shew it unto you.

therefore said I,
that he shall take of mine,
and shall shew it unto you.

that ye may prove what is that good,
and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
Romans 12:3-5
King James Version

through the grace given unto me,
to every man that is among you,
not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think;
but to think soberly,
according as God hath dealt to every man
the measure of faith.
4 For as we have many members in one body,
and all members have not the same office:
5 So we, being many,
are one body in Christ,
and every one members one of another.
Romans 12:6-13
King James Version
6 Having then gifts differing
according to the grace that is given to us,
whether prophecy,
let us prophesy according to the proportion of faith;
7 Or ministry, let us wait on our ministering:
or he that teacheth, on teaching;
8 Or he that exhorteth, on exhortation:
he that giveth, let him do it with simplicity;
he that ruleth, with diligence;
he that sheweth mercy, with cheerfulness.
9 Let love be without dissimulation.
Abhor that which is evil;
cleave to that which is good.
10 Be kindly affectioned one to another
with brotherly love;
in honour preferring one another;

patient in tribulation;
continuing instant in prayer;
13 Distributing to the necessity of saints;
given to hospitality.

through philosophy and vain deceit,
after the tradition of men,

all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.
10 And ye are complete in him,
which is the head of all principality and power:
Colossians 3:1-2

which are able to make thee wise unto salvation
through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
