John 17:5
5And now, Father, aglorify me in your own presence with the glory bthat I had with you cbefore the world existed.Philippians 2:6
6 dwho, though he was in ethe form of God, did not count equality with God fa thing to be grasped,Hebrews 10:4-10
4For git is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins.5Consequently, hwhen Christ ▼
▼Greek he
came into the world, he said, j“Sacrifices and offerings you have not desired,
but a body have you prepared for me;
6in burnt offerings and sin offerings
you have taken no pleasure.
7Then I said, ‘Behold, I have come to do your will, O God,
as it is written of me in the scroll of the book.’”
8When he said above, “You have neither desired nor taken pleasure in ksacrifices and offerings and burnt offerings and sin offerings” (these are offered according to the law), 9then he added, l“Behold, I have come to do your will.” He does away with the first in order to establish the second. 10And by that will mwe have been sanctified through the offering of nthe body of Jesus Christ oonce for all.
