John 1:17
17For athe law was given through Moses; bgrace and truth came through Jesus Christ.Romans 6:17
17But cthanks be to God, that you who were once slaves of sin have become obedient from the heart to the dstandard of teaching to which you were committed,Romans 10:14-17
14How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him eof whom they have never heard? ▼▼Or him whom they have never heard
And how are they to hear gwithout someone preaching? 15And how are they to preach unless they are sent? As it is written, h“How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!” 16But ithey have not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah says, j“Lord, who has believed what he has heard from us?” 17So kfaith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ. Ephesians 4:21
21assuming that lyou have heard about him and mwere taught in him, as the truth is in Jesus,Colossians 1:4-6
4since we heard of nyour faith in Christ Jesus and of othe love that you have for all the saints, 5because of pthe hope qlaid up for you in heaven. Of this you have heard before in rthe word of the truth, the gospel, 6which has come to you, as indeed sin the whole world it is tbearing fruit and increasing—as it also does among you, since the day you uheard it and understood vthe grace of God in truth,Colossians 1:23
23 wif indeed you continue in the faith, xstable and steadfast, not shifting from ythe hope of the gospel that you heard, which has been proclaimed zin all creation ▼▼Or to every creature
under heaven, aband of which I, Paul, became a minister. 1 Thessalonians 2:13
13And acwe also thank God constantly ▼▼Or without ceasing
for this, that when you received aethe word of God, which you heard from us, you accepted it afnot as the word of men ▼▼The Greek word anthropoi can refer to both men and women
but as what it really is, the word of God, ahwhich is at work in you believers.
