Unchecked Copy BoxRom 4:25 - He was delivered over to death for our sins and was raised to life for our justification.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 5:1 - Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we[fn] have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 5:5 - And hope does not put us to shame, because God's love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 5:10 - For if, while we were God's enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through his life!
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 5:11 - Not only is this so, but we also boast in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 5:12 - Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, and in this way death came to all people, because all sinned—
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 5:17 - For if, by the trespass of the one man, death reigned through that one man, how much more will those who receive God's abundant provision of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man, Jesus Christ!
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 5:19 - For just as through the disobedience of the one man the many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of the one man the many will be made righteous.

Unchecked Copy BoxRom 6:4 - We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 6:19 - I am using an example from everyday life because of your human limitations. Just as you used to offer yourselves as slaves to impurity and to ever-increasing wickedness, so now offer yourselves as slaves to righteousness leading to holiness.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 7:4 - So, my brothers and sisters, you also died to the law through the body of Christ, that you might belong to another, to him who was raised from the dead, in order that we might bear fruit for God.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 7:5 - For when we were in the realm of the flesh,[fn] the sinful passions aroused by the law were at work in us, so that we bore fruit for death.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 7:7 - What shall we say, then? Is the law sinful? Certainly not! Nevertheless, I would not have known what sin was had it not been for the law. For I would not have known what coveting really was if the law had not said, “You shall not covet.”[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 7:8 - But sin, seizing the opportunity afforded by the commandment, produced in me every kind of coveting. For apart from the law, sin was dead.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 7:11 - For sin, seizing the opportunity afforded by the commandment, deceived me, and through the commandment put me to death.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 7:13 - Did that which is good, then, become death to me? By no means! Nevertheless, in order that sin might be recognized as sin, it used what is good to bring about my death, so that through the commandment sin might become utterly sinful.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 7:25 - Thanks be to God, who delivers me through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, I myself in my mind am a slave to God's law, but in my sinful nature[fn] a slave to the law of sin.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 8:3 - For what the law was powerless to do because it was weakened by the flesh,[fn] God did by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh to be a sin offering.[fn] And so he condemned sin in the flesh,
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 8:10 - But if Christ is in you, then even though your body is subject to death because of sin, the Spirit gives life[fn] because of righteousness.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 8:11 - And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies because of[fn] his Spirit who lives in you.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 8:20 - For the creation was subjected to frustration, not by its own choice, but by the will of the one who subjected it, in hope

Unchecked Copy BoxRom 12:1 - Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 12:3 - For by the grace given me I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the faith God has distributed to each of you.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 13:5 - Therefore, it is necessary to submit to the authorities, not only because of possible punishment but also as a matter of conscience.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 13:6 - This is also why you pay taxes, for the authorities are God's servants, who give their full time to governing.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 14:15 - If your brother or sister is distressed because of what you eat, you are no longer acting in love. Do not by your eating destroy someone for whom Christ died.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 14:20 - Do not destroy the work of God for the sake of food. All food is clean, but it is wrong for a person to eat anything that causes someone else to stumble.
