Romans 5:6-11
New King James Version
Christ in Our Place
6 For when we were still without strength, [a]in due time (A)Christ died for the ungodly. 7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die; yet perhaps for a good man someone would even dare to die. 8 But (B)God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. 9 Much more then, having now been justified (C)by His blood, we shall be saved (D)from wrath through Him. 10 For (E)if when we were enemies (F)we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved (G)by His life. 11 And not only that, but we also (H)rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation.

Romans 5:6-11
New International Version
6 You see, at just the right time,(A) when we were still powerless,(B) Christ died for the ungodly.(C) 7 Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous person, though for a good person someone might possibly dare to die. 8 But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.(D)
9 Since we have now been justified(E) by his blood,(F) how much more shall we be saved from God’s wrath(G) through him! 10 For if, while we were God’s enemies,(H) we were reconciled(I) to him through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through his life!(J) 11 Not only is this so, but we also boast in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.(K)

New King James Version
9 that (A)if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11 For the Scripture says, (B)“Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame.” 12 For (C)there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for (D)the same Lord over all (E)is rich to all who call upon Him. 13 For (F)“whoever calls (G)on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”

1 John 5:9-14
New King James Version
9 If we receive (A)the witness of men, the witness of God is greater; (B)for this is the witness of [a]God which He has testified of His Son. 10 He who believes in the Son of God (C)has the witness in himself; he who does not believe God (D)has made Him a liar, because he has not believed the testimony that God has given of His Son. 11 And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. 12 (E)He who has the Son has [b]life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life. 13 These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, [c]and that you may continue to believe in the name of the Son of God.
