See, I will create new heavens and a new earth. The former things will not be remembered, nor will they come to mind.

Then I saw “a new heaven and a new earth,” for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea.

See, I will create new heavens and a new earth. The former things will not be remembered, nor will they come to mind.

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

The LORD is my light and my salvation— whom shall I fear? The LORD is the stronghold of my life— of whom shall I be afraid?

You, LORD, keep my lamp burning; my God turns my darkness into light.

The LORD is my light and my salvation— whom shall I fear? The LORD is the stronghold of my life— of whom shall I be afraid?

LORD, be gracious to us; we long for you. Be our strength every morning, our salvation in time of distress.

Very truly I tell you, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be judged but has crossed over from death to life.

See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.

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

And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins.

By his power God raised the Lord from the dead, and he will raise us also.

For we know that since Christ was raised from the dead, he cannot die again; death no longer has mastery over him.

He is not here; he has risen!

Jesus called out with a loud voice, “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit.” When he had said this, he breathed his last.

Jesus called out with a loud voice, “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit.” When he had said this, he breathed his last.

He was delivered over to death for our sins and was raised to life for our justification.

Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in me will never die. Do you believe this?”

He is not here; he has risen! Remember how he told you, while he was still with you in Galilee: The Son of Man must be delivered over to the hands of sinners, be crucified and on the third day be raised again.

But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead…

Praise the LORD, my soul; all my inmost being, praise his holy name.

We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure.

And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.

May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.

I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.

I can do all this through him who gives me strength.

For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—not by works, so that no one can boast.

For no word from God will ever fail.
