Job 19:21-27 Pity me. Pity me. You're my friends. God's hand has truly struck me. Why do you pursue me like God does, always hungry for my flesh? Oh, that my words were written down, inscribed on a scroll with an iron instrument and lead, forever engraved on stone. But I know that my redeemer is alive and afterward he'll rise upon the dust. After my skin has been torn apart this way—then from my flesh I'll see God, whom I'll see myself—my eyes see, and not a stranger's. I am utterly dejected.
Psalm 25:1-7 I offer my life to you, Lord. My God, I t rust in you. Please don't let me be put to shame! Don't let my enemies rejoice over me! For that matter, don't let anyone who hopes in you be put to shame; instead, let those who are treacherous without excuse be put to shame. Make your ways known to me, Lord; teach me your paths. Lead me in your truth—teach it to me—because you are the God who saves me. I put my hope in you all day long. Lord, remember your compassion and faithful love—they are forever! But don't remember the sins of my youth or my wrongdoing. Remember me only according to your faithful love for the sake of your goodness, Lord.
Acts 10:39-43 We are witnesses of everything he did, both in Judea and in Jerusalem. They killed him by hanging him on a tree, but God raised him up on the third day and allowed him to be seen, not by everyone but by us. We are witnesses whom God chose beforehand, who ate and drank with him after God raised him from the dead. He commanded us to preach to the people and to testify that he is the one whom God appointed as judge of the living and the dead. All the prophets testify about him that everyone
who believes in him receives forgiveness of sins through his name.
John 7:45-52 The guards returned to the chief priests and Pharisees, who asked, “Why didn't you bring him?” The guards answered, “No one has ever spoken the way he does.” The Pharisees replied, “Have you too been deceived? Have any of the leaders believed in him? Has any Pharisee? No, only this crowd, which doesn't know the Law. And they are under God's curse!” Nicodemus, who was one of them and had come to Jesus earlier, said, “Our Law doesn't judge someone without first hearing him and learning what he is doing, does it?” They answered him, “You are not from Galilee too, are you? Look it up and you will see that the prophet doesn't come from Galilee.”
