John 10:9-15. The Passion Translation
“9 I am the Gateway.[a] To enter through me is to experience life, freedom, and satisfaction.[b] 10 A thief has only one thing in mind—he wants to steal, slaughter,[c]and destroy. But I have come togive you everything in abundance,[d] more than you expect[e]—life in its fullness until you overflow! 11 I am the Good[f]Shepherd who lays down my life as a sacrifice for the sheep. 12–13 But the worker who serves only for wages is not a real shepherd.

Colossians 2:14-15 The Passion Translation
“14 He canceled out every legal violation we had on our record and the old arrest warrant that stood to indict us. He erased it all—our sins, our stained[a] soul—he deleted it all and they cannot be retrieved! Everything we once were in Adam[b] has been placed onto his cross and nailed permanently there as a public display of cancellation.
15 Then Jesus made a public spectacle of all the powers and principalities of darkness, stripping away from them every weapon and all their spiritual authority and power[c] to accuse us. And by the power of the cross, Jesus led them around as prisoners in a procession of triumph. He was not their prisoner; they were his![d]Read full chapter”
