He removed the high places and broke the sacred pillars, chopped down the groves and broke in pieces the bronze serpent that Moses had made; for until those days the children of Israel burned incense to it, and called it Nehushtan.

And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up,

that everyone believing into Him should not perish but have eternal life.

And I, if I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all to Myself.

For what the Law could not do in that it was weak through the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh; and on account of sin, He condemned sin in the flesh,

For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.

Turn to Me, and be saved, all the ends of the earth; for I am the Mighty God, and there is no other.

And I will pour on the house of David, and on the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the Spirit of grace and supplication. And they shall look on Me whom they have pierced; and they shall mourn for Him, as one mourns for an only son, and they shall be bitter over Him, like the bitterness over the firstborn.

The next day John sees Jesus coming toward him, and says, Behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!

looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

He who produces sin is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this, the Son of God was made known, that He might destroy the works of the devil.

And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that everyone who sees the Son and believes into Him may have eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.

For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; even as it is written, The just shall live by faith.

Moreover the Law entered that the offense might abound. But where sin abounded, grace abounded much more,

so that as sin reigned in death, even so grace might reign through righteousness unto eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
