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.

Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.

For we live by faith, not by sight.

He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.”

Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word about Christ.

Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God; believe also in me.

Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”

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?”

This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters.

Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.

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

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

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…

Rejoice in the LORD and be glad, you righteous; sing, all you who are upright in heart!

… I will rejoice in the LORD, I will be joyful in God my Savior.

Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!

Worship the LORD with gladness; come before him with joyful songs.

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.

Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.
