9 God is trustworthy who called you to share together in fellowship with his son Jesus Christ our Lord.

16 Don't you know you are God's temple and that God's Spirit lives in you?

12 Just like the human body is one unit but has many parts—all the parts of the body even though there are many of them, make up one body—so is Christ.

14 May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Spirit be with you all.

16 What compromise could the Temple of God make with idols? For we are a temple of the living God, just as God said: "I will live in them and walk among them. I will be their God, and they will be my people."*

17 That's why anyone who is in Christ is a new being—what was old is gone, the new has come! 18 God did all this by changing us from enemies into friends through Christ. God gave us this same work of changing his enemies into his friends. 19 For God was in Christ, bringing the world back from hostility to friendship with him, not counting anyone's sins against them, and giving us this message to change his enemies into his friends.

20 Look, I'm standing at the door, knocking. If anyone hears me calling and opens the door, I will come in and eat with them, and they with me.

3 I heard a loud voice from the throne say, "Now God's home* is with human beings and he will live with them. They will be his people. God himself will be with them as their God.*

45 Then I will live with the Israelites and be their God.

20 For where two or three gather together in my name, I'm there with them."

20 I'm not only praying for them, I'm also praying for those who trust in me because of their message. 21 I pray that they all may be one, just as you, Father, live in me, and I live in you, so that they too may live in us so that the world will believe you did send me. 22 I have given them the glory that you gave me, so that they may be one, just as we are one. 23 I live in them, and you live in me. May they be completely one, so the whole world will know that you did send me, and that you love them, just as you love me.

24 Those who keep his commands continue to live in him, and he lives in them. We know that he lives in us by the Spirit he has given us.

20 We also know that the Son of God has come, and has helped us to understand so we can recognize the one who is true. We live in him who is true, in his Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God, and is eternal life.*

13 How can we know that we live in him, and that he lives in us? He's given us the ability to love* by his Spirit.

7 Dear friends, let's go on loving one another, for love comes from God. All those who love are born of God and know God.

3 What we have seen and heard we are now explaining to you, so that you may also share in this friendship* together with us—this friendship that is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.

28 Now, my dear friends, continue to live in Christ, so that when he appears, we can be confident and not feel ashamed before him at his coming.

1 Now that we have been made right by God by trusting in him, we have peace with him through our Lord Jesus Christ. 2 It's through Jesus, trusting in him, that we've gained access to this position of grace where we now stand, looking forward with happiness and confidence to sharing in God's glory.

22 let us come close to God with sincere minds, totally trusting in him. Our minds have been sprinkled to purify them from our evil way of thinking, and our bodies have been washed clean by pure water.

7 So place yourself under God's direction. Confront the devil, and he will run away from you. 8 Come close to God and he will come close to you. Wash your hands, you sinners. Purify your way of thinking, you people with divided loyalties.
