Christelijke e-cards met Bijbeltekst

But God demonstrates His own love toward us,
in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

Now hope does not disappoint,
because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts
by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.

Therefore, having been justified by faith,
we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,

He who descended is also the One who ascended
far above all the heavens, that He might fill all things.

My soul faints for Your salvation,
But I hope in Your word.

I am small and despised,
Yet I do not forget Your precepts.

It is good that one should hope and wait quietly
For the salvation of the Lord.

So Jesus said to them again,
Peace to you!

As the Father has sent Me,
I also send you.

Jesus came and stood in the midst,
and said to them, “Peace be with you.”

For as yet they did not know the Scripture,
that He must rise again from the dead.

Therefore My Father loves Me,
because I lay down My life
that I may take it again.
No one takes it from Me,
but I lay it down of Myself.
I have power to lay it down,
and I have power to take it again.
This command I have received from My Father.

Surely He has borne our griefs
And carried our sorrows;
Yet we esteemed Him stricken,
Smitten by God, and afflicted.

He is despised and rejected by men,
A Man of sorrows and acquainted with grief.
And we hid, as it were, our faces from Him;
He was despised, and we did not esteem Him.

For He shall grow up before Him as a tender plant,
and as a root out of dry ground.
He has no form or comeliness;
and when we see Him,
there is no beauty that we should desire Him.

The Lord is good to those who wait for Him,
To the soul who seeks Him.

Your mercy, O LORD, is in the heavens;
Your faithfulness reaches to the clouds.

“The LORD is my portion,” says my soul,
“Therefore I hope in Him!”

Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering,
for He who promised is faithful.

Hope in God, for I shall yet praise Him
For the help of His countenance.

Even so it is not the will of your Father
who is in heaven that one of these little ones should perish.

Another parable He spoke to them:
The kingdom of heaven is like leaven,
which a woman took and hid in three
measures of meal till it was all leavened.

Do not think that I came
to destroy the Law or the Prophets.
I did not come to destroy but to fulfill.

But I say to you who hear:
Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you,
bless those who curse you, and pray for those who spitefully use you.

For the Lord is good;
His mercy is everlasting,
And His truth endures to all generations.
