23 since all have sinned and continue to fall short of God's glory.

23 since all have sinned and continue to fall short of God's glory.24 By his grace they are justified freely through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus,

20 Therefore, no human being will be justified in God's sight by means of the works prescribed by the law, for through the law comes the full knowledge of sin.

23 For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in union with Christ Jesus our Lord.

4 Everyone who keeps living in sin also practices disobedience. In fact, sin is disobedience.

1 Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in union with Christ Jesus.2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set me free from the law of sin and death.

12 Therefore, do not let sin rule your mortal bodies so that you obey their desires.13 Stop offering the parts of your body to sin as instruments of unrighteousness. Instead, offer yourselves to God as people who have been brought from death to life and the parts of your body as instruments of righteousness to God.14 For sin will not have mastery over you, because you are not under law but under grace.15 What, then, does this mean? Should we go on sinning because we are not under law but under grace? Of course not!16 Don't you know that when you offer yourselves to someone as obedient slaves, you are slaves of the one you obey—either of sin, which leads to death, or of obedience, which leads to righteousness?17 But thank God that, though you were once slaves of sin, you became obedient from your hearts to that form of teaching with which you were entrusted!18 And since you have been freed from sin, you have become slaves of righteousness.

15 What, then, does this mean? Should we go on sinning because we are not under law but under grace? Of course not!

14 For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am mere flesh, sold as a slave to sin.15 I don't understand what I am doing. For I don't do what I want to do, but instead do what I hate.16 Now if I do what I don't want to do, I agree that the law is good.17 As it is, I am no longer the one who is doing it, but it is the sin that lives in me.

34 Jesus answered them,"Truly, truly I tell you that everyone who commits sin is a slave of sin.

8 If we say that we do not have any sin, we are deceiving ourselves and the truth is not in us.9 If we make it our habit to confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us those sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

9 If we make it our habit to confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us those sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

6 If we claim that we have fellowship with him but keep living in the darkness, we are lying and the truth is not in us.

24 He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, so that we might die to those sins and live for righteousness. By his wounds you have been healed.

21 She will give birth to a son, and you are to name him Jesus, because he is the one who will save his people from their sins."

21 God made the one who did not know sin to be sin for us, so that we might become God's righteousness in him.

28 so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people. And he will appear a second time, not to deal with sin, but to bring salvation to those who eagerly wait for him.

8 The person who practices sin belongs to the evil one, because the devil has been sinning since the beginning. The reason that the Son of God was revealed was to destroy the works of the devil.

18 We know that the person who has been born from God does not go on sinning. Rather, the Son of God protects them, and the evil one cannot harm them.

5 So put to death your worldly impulses: sexual sin, impurity, passion, evil desire, and greed (which is idolatry).

3 Do not let sexual sin, impurity of any kind, or greed even be mentioned among you, as is proper for saints.

11 and have nothing to do with the unfruitful works of darkness. Instead, expose them for what they are.12 For it is shameful even to mention what is done by people in secret.

26 "Be angry, yet do not sin." Do not let the sun go down on your wrath,

1 Brothers, if a person is caught doing something wrong, those of you who are spiritual should restore that person in a spirit of gentleness. Watch out for yourself so that you are not tempted as well.

1 Brothers, if a person is caught doing something wrong, those of you who are spiritual should restore that person in a spirit of gentleness. Watch out for yourself so that you are not tempted as well.2 Practice carrying each other's burdens. In this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.

15 "If your brother sins against you,go and confront him while the two of you are alone. If he listens to you, you have won back your brother.

15 "If your brother sins against you,go and confront him while the two of you are alone. If he listens to you, you have won back your brother.

6 "If anyone causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him if a large millstone were hung around his neck and he were drowned at the bottom of the sea.

3 "Why do you see the speck in your brother's eye but fail to notice the beam in your own eye?

14 For if you forgive people their offenses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.

16 Therefore, make it your habit to confess your sins to one another and to pray for one another, so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective.

17 Therefore, anyone who knows what is right but fails to do it is guilty of sin.

8 Come close to God, and he will come close to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded.

4 You adulterers! Don't you know that friendship with the world means hostility with God? So whoever wants to be a friend of this world is an enemy of God.

10 From the same mouth come blessing and cursing. It should not be like this, my brothers!

8 Above all, continue to love each other deeply, because love covers a multitude of sins.

45 A good person produces good from the good treasure of his heart, and an evil person produces evil from an evil treasure. For it is out of the abundance of the heart that the mouth speaks."

9 You know that wicked people will not inherit the kingdom of God, don't you? Stop deceiving yourselves! Sexually immoral people, idolaters, adulterers, male prostitutes, homosexuals,10 thieves, greedy people, drunks, slanderers, and robbers will not inherit the kingdom of God.

4 Pilate went outside again and told the Jews, "Look, I am bringing him out to you to let you know that I find no basis for a charge against him."5 Then Jesus came outside, wearing the victor's crown of thorns and the purple robe.Pilate said to them, "Here is the man!"6 When the high priests and the officials saw him, they shouted, "Crucify him! Crucify him!"Pilate told them, "You take him and crucify him. I find no basis for a charge against him."

23 If you forgive people's sins, they are forgiven. If you retain people's sins, they are retained."
