Salvation, The Power Of God (Bible) Poem by Molaire Jules

Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to every man?

I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase.

So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase.
1 CORINTHIANS 3: 5-7

For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.
1 CORINTHIANS 1: 18

Knowing, brethren beloved, your election of God.

For our gospel came not unto you in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Ghost, and in much assurance; as ye know what manner of men we were among you for your sake.

And ye became followers of us, and of the Lord, having received the word in much affliction, with joy of the Holy Ghost.
1 THESSALONIANS 1: 4-6


GALATIANS 2: 16

Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.


EPHESIANS 2: 8-9

For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:

Not of works, lest any man should boast.


2 TIMOTHY 1: 9

Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began,


ROMANS 4: 2

For if Abraham were justified by works, he hath whereof to glory; but not before God.


ROMANS 9: 11-16

(For the children being not yet born, neither having done any good or evil, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him that calleth ;)

It was said unto her, The elder shall serve the younger.

As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.

What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness with God? God forbid.

For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.

So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy.


ROMANS 9: 25 (*Hos 2: 23)

As he saith also in Osee, I will call them my people, which were not my people; and her beloved, which was not beloved.

*Gen 2: 15-17; Gen 3: 6,16-19; 1 Cor 15: 22; Rom 5: 14-18; 1 Pet 2: 9-10; Jer 31: 31-34)


PSALM 53: 2-3

God looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, that did seek God.

Every one of them is gone back: they are altogether become filthy; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.


PSALM 51: 5

Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.


PSALM 58: 3

The wicked are estranged from the womb: they go astray as soon as they be born, speaking lies.
