²⁵ Consequently, he is able to save to the uttermost^{[a] (A)}those who draw near to God ^(B)through him, since he always lives ^(C)to make intercession for them.

^34 (A)Who is to condemn? Christ Jesus is the one who died—more than that, who was raised—^(B)who is at the right hand of God, ^(C)who indeed is interceding for us.^[a]

¹² And there is ^(A)salvation ^(B)in no one else, for ^(C)there is no other ^(D)name under heaven given among men^[a] by which we must be saved.”

⁵ For ^(A)there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man^[a] Christ Jesus, ^6 (B)who gave himself as a ransom for all, which is ^(C)the testimony given ^(D)at the proper time.

¹³ He ^(A)has delivered us from ^(B)the domain of darkness and transferred us to ^(C)the kingdom of ^(D)his beloved Son, ^14 (E)in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.

The Preeminence of Christ

^15 (F)He is the image of ^(G)the invisible God, ^(H)the firstborn of all creation. ¹⁶ For by^[a] him all things were created, ^(I)in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether ^(J)thrones or ^(K)dominions or rulers or authorities—all things were created ^(L)through him and for him. ¹⁷ And ^(M)he is before all things, and in him all things ^(N)hold together. ¹⁸ And ^(O)he is the head of the body, the church. He is ^(P)the beginning, ^(Q)the firstborn from the dead, that in everything he might be preeminent.
