Saturday's Living Water

Scripture

For while we were still helpless, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly.

For one will hardly die for a righteous man; though perhaps for the good man someone would dare even to die.

But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from the wrath of God through Him.
Romans 5:6-9



Porque mientras aún éramos débiles, a su tiempo Cristo murió por los impíos.

Porque a duras penas habrá alguien que muera por un justo, aunque tal vez alguno se atreva a morir por el bueno.

Pero Dios demuestra su amor para con nosotros, en que siendo aún pecadores, Cristo murió por nosotros.

Entonces mucho más, habiendo sido ahora justificados por su sangre, seremos salvos de la ira de Dios por medio de El.
Romanos 5:6-9

Friday's Living Water

Scripture

Now if we have died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with Him,

knowing that Christ, having been raised from the dead, is never to die again; death no longer is master over Him.

For the death that He died, He died to sin once for all; but the life that He lives, He lives to God.
Romans 6:8-10



Y si hemos muerto con Cristo, creemos que también viviremos con El,

sabiendo que Cristo, habiendo resucitado de entre los muertos, no volverá a morir; ya la muerte no tiene dominio sobre El.

Porque por cuanto El murió, murió al pecado de una vez para siempre; pero en cuanto vive, vive para Dios.
Romanos 6:8-10
