1 Corinthians 13:13

Righteousness guards the person of integrity,
    but wickedness overthrows the sinner.

Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters,

Dear friend, I pray that you may enjoy good health and that all may go well with you, even as your soul is getting along well.

He has shown you, O mortal, what is good.
    And what does the Lord require of you?
To act justly and to love mercy
    and to walk humbly with your God.

Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word about Christ.
