13It is written: “I believed; therefore I have spoken.” Psalm 116:10 (see Septuagint) Since we have that same spirit of Or Spirit-given faith, we also believe and therefore speak, 14because we know that the one who raised the Lord Jesus from the dead will also raise us with Jesus and present us with you to himself.
15All this is for your benefit, so that the grace that is reaching more and more people may cause thanksgiving to overflow to the glory of God.
