And may your whole spirit and soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her… so that he might present the church to himself in splendor, without spot or wrinkle or any such thing, that she might be holy and without blemish.—Him we proclaim, warning everyone and teaching everyone with all wisdom, that we may present everyone mature in Christ.

And the peace of God… surpasses all understanding.—And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body.

Now may our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God our Father, who loved us and gave us eternal comfort and good hope through grace, comfort your hearts and establish them in every good work and word.—Who will sustain you to the end, guiltless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.

“But will God indeed dwell with man on the earth?”

You ascended on high, leading a host of captives in your train and receiving gifts among men, even among the rebellious, that the Lord God may dwell there.

For we are the temple of the living God; as God said, “I will make my dwelling among them and walk among them, and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.”—Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God?—In him you also are being built together into a dwelling place for God by the Spirit.
