And said, Truly, I say to you, If you do not have a change of heart and become like little children, you will not go into the kingdom of heaven.

To all those who did so take him, however, he gave the right of becoming children of God--that is, to those who had faith in his name:

Jesus said to him, Truly, I say to you, Without a new birth no man is able to see the kingdom of God.

For God had such love for the world that he gave his only Son, so that whoever has faith in him may not come to destruction but have eternal life.

He who has faith in the Son has eternal life; but he who has not faith in the Son will not see life; God's wrath is resting on him.

And I give them eternal life; they will never come to destruction, and no one will ever take them out of my hand.

Jesus said to him, I am the true and living way: no one comes to the Father but by me.

And they said, Have faith in the Lord Jesus, and you and your family will have salvation.

For all have done wrong and are far from the glory of God;

For the reward of sin is death; but what God freely gives is eternal life in Jesus Christ our Lord.

Because, if you say with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and have faith in your heart that God has made him come back from the dead, you will have salvation:

For with the heart man has faith to get righteousness, and with the mouth he says that Jesus is Lord to get salvation.

Because, Whoever will give worship to the name of the Lord will get salvation.

So if any man is in Christ, he is in a new world: the old things have come to an end; they have truly become new.

Because by grace you have salvation through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is given by God:

Not by works, so that no man may take glory to himself.

Not by works of righteousness which we did ourselves, but in the measure of his mercy, he gave us salvation, through the washing of the new birth and the giving of new life in the Holy Spirit,

And by the law almost all things are made clean with blood, and without blood there is no forgiveness.

If we say openly that we have done wrong, he is upright and true to his word, giving us forgiveness of sins and making us clean from all evil.

See, I am waiting at the door and giving the sign; if my voice comes to any man's ears and he makes the door open, I will come in to him, and will take food with him and he with me.
