Bible Verses About The Christ Jesus

that the righteousness of the law may be fulfilled in us, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.

and Israel, pursuing a law of righteousness, at a law of righteousness did not arrive;

wherefore? because--not by faith, but as by works of law; for they did stumble at the stone of stumbling,

for let each one of us please the neighbour for good, unto edification,

for even the Christ did not please himself, but, according as it hath been written, `The reproaches of those reproaching Thee fell upon me;'

And I say Jesus Christ to have become a ministrant of circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises to the fathers,

and the nations for kindness to glorify God, according as it hath been written, `Because of this I will confess to Thee among nations, and to Thy name I will sing praise,'

and when the fulness of time did come, God sent forth His Son, come of a woman, come under law,

that those under law he may redeem, that the adoption of sons we may receive;

For, let this mind be in you that is also in Christ Jesus,

who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal to God,
