  • Romans 5:8 – But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
  • 2 Corinthians 5:17 – Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come.
  • Colossians 1:13 – For He rescued us from the domain of darkness, and transferred us to the kingdom of His beloved Son,
  • Ephesians 2:1-7 – And you were dead in your trespasses and sins, in which you formerly walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, of the spirit that is now working in the sons of disobedience. Among them we too all formerly lived in the lusts of our flesh, indulging the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, even as the rest.

  • Lamentations 3:22-23 – The LORD’S lovingkindnesses [mercy] indeed never cease, For His compassions never fail. They are new every morning; Great is Your faithfulness.

  • Psalm 46:10 – “Cease striving [be still] and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.”
  • Ephesians 4:22-24 – that, in reference to your former manner of life, you lay aside the old self, which is being corrupted in accordance with the lusts of deceit, and that you be renewed in the spirit of your mind, and put on the new self, which in the likeness of God has been created in righteousness and holiness of the truth.
  • Romans 8:29 – For those whom He foreknew, He also predestined to become conformed to the image of His Son, so that He would be the firstborn among many brethren …
