9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we will be saved from God's wrath through him.
and to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead-- Jesus, who delivers us from the wrath to come.
For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness,
"Most assuredly I tell you, he who hears my word, and believes him who sent me, has eternal life, and doesn't come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life.

how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without blemish to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?
