¹¹ And not only that, but we also ^(A)rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation.

¹⁸ Now all things are of God, ^(A)who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation, ¹⁹ that is, that ^(B)God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not ^[a]imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation.

¹⁰ For ^(A)if when we were enemies ^(B)we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved ^(C)by His life.

^4 (A)Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice!

A Hymn of Faith

^8 (A)whom having not ^[a]seen you love. ^(B)Though now you do not see Him, yet believing, you rejoice with joy inexpressible and full of glory,

^6 (A)As you therefore have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him,

⁹ But now ^(A)after you have known God, or rather are known by God, ^(B)how is it that you turn again to ^(C)the weak and beggarly elements, to which you desire again to be in bondage?
