Psalm 51:1 - 4: Have mercy on me, O God, according to your unfailing love; according to your great compassion blot out my transgressions. Wash away all my iniquity and cleanse me from my sin.

Romans 3: 25 - 26: God presented Christ as a sacrifice of atonement, through the shedding of His blood - to be received by faith.

1 Corinthians, chapter 4: 9 - 10: For it seems to me that God has put us apostles on display at the end of the procession, like those condemned to die in the arena.

You are honoured, we are dishonoured!

2 Corinthians 5: 20 - 21: We are therefore Christ’s ambassadors, as though God were making His appeal through us. We implore you on Christ’s behalf: Be reconciled to God. God made Him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God.

Philippians 2: 3 - 5: Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others. In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus.
