Ephesians 2:8-9
God saved you by his grace when you believed, and you can't take credit for this, it is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it.
 
Colossians 1:15-20
Christ is the visible image of the invisible God, he existed before anything was created and is supreme over all creation. For through him God created everything, in the heavenly realms and on earth. He made the things we can see and the things we can't see, such as thrones, kingdoms, rulers, and authorities in the unseen world. Everything was created through him and for him. He existed before anything else, and he holds all creation together. Christ is also the head of the church, which is his body. He is the begining, the firstborn of all who rise from the dead, so he is first in everything. For God in all his fullness was pleased to live in Christ, and through him God reconciled everything to himself, HE MADE PEACE WITH EVERYTHING IN HEAVEN AND ON EARTH, by means of Christ's blood on the cross.
 
Romans 9:11-18
But before they were born, before they had done anything good or bad, she received a message from God. This message shows that God chooses people according to his own purposes. He calls people, but not according to their good or bad works. She was told, your older son will serve your younger son. In the words of the scriptures, I loved Jacob but I rejected Esau. Are we saying then that God was unfair, of course not! For God said to Moses, I will show mercy to anyone I choose, and I will show compassion to anyone I choose. So it is God who decides to show mercy, we can neither choose it nor work for it. For the scriptures say that God told pharaoh, I have appointed you for the very purpose of displaying my power in you and to spread my fame throughout the earth. So you see, God chooses to show mercy to some, and he chooses to harden the hearts of others so that they refuse to listen.
 
Romans 11:32...youngs literal translation.
For God did shut up together the whole to unbelief, that to the whole he might do kindness.

New living translation.
For God has imprisoned everyone in disobedience, so he could have mercy on everyone.
 
John 1:1-5 NIV

In the beginning was the word, and the word was with God, and the word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.
 
Psalm 87
On the holy mountain stands the city founded by YHWH.
He loves the city of Jerusalem more than any other city in Israel.
O city of God, what glorious things are said of you.
I will count Egypt and Babylon among those who know me, also Philistia and Tyre, and even distant Ethiopia, they have all become citizens of Jerusalem.
Regarding Jerusalem it will be said, everyone enjoys the rights of citizenship there, and the most high will personally bless the city.
When YHWH registers the nations he will say, they have all become citizens of Jerusalem.
The people will play flutes and sing, the source of my life springs from Jerusalem.
 
Psalm 66:3-4
Say to God, how awesome are your works, through the greatness of your power your enemies shall submit themselves to you. All the earth shall worship you, and sing praises to you, they shall sing praises to your name.
 
Psalm 119;

Blessed are the undefiled in the way, who walk in the law of the Lord.
Blessed are they that keep his testimonies, and that seek him with the whole heart.
They also do no iniquity: they walk in his ways.
Thou hast commanded us to keep thy precepts diligently.
O that my ways were directed to keep thy statutes!
Then shall I not be ashamed, when I have respect unto all thy commandments.
I will praise thee with uprightness of heart, when I shall have learned thy righteous judgments.
 
Matthew 19:25-26
The disciples were astounded, then who in the world can be saved they asked? Jesus looked at them intently and said, with men it is impossible, but with God all things are possible.
 
Ephesians 1:9-11
God has now revealed to us his mysterious plan regarding Christ, a plan to fulfil his own good pleasure. And this is the plan, at the right time he will bring everything together under the authority of Christ, everything in heaven and on earth. Furthermore, because we are united with Christ, we have received an inheritance from God. for he chose us in advance, and he makes everything work out according to his plan.
 
John 16:33

“I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”
 
1 John 5:4-5
For everyone born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith. Who is it that overcomes the world? Only the one who believes that Jesus is the son of God.
 
John 6:28-29
They said, we want to do God's works too, what should we do? Jesus replied, this is the only work God wants from you, believe in the one he has sent.
 
Matthew 7:1-6

Do not judge, so that you will not be judged.
For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with what measure you measure, it will be measured to you.
And why do you look at the speck that is in your brother’s eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye?
How can you say to your brother, Let me take the speck out of your eye, and behold, the log is in your own eye?
You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother’s eye.
Do not give what is holy to dogs, and do not throw your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you to pieces.
 
Ephesians 3:14-21
For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named, that according to the riches of his glory he may grant you to be strengthened with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith—that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may have strength to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.

Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen.
