by becoming obedient even to death —
death on a stake as a criminal!

32 “Therefore whoever confesses Me before men,
him I will also confess before My Father who is in heaven.

Ephesians 1:20-23Amplified Bible (AMP)20 which He [a]produced in Christ when He raised Him
from the dead and seated Him at His own right hand in the heavenly places,
21 far above all rule and authority and power and dominion
[whether angelic or human], and [far above] every name that is named
[above every title that can be conferred], not only in this age
and world but also in the one to come.
22 And He [b]put all things [in every realm] in subjection under Christ’s feet,
and [c]appointed Him as [supreme and authoritative] head over all things in the church,
23 which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills and completes all things in all [believers].
22 But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.
5 Examine and test and evaluat
and showing the proper fruits of it. Test and prove yourselves
Do you not yourselves realize and know [thoroughly by an ever-increasing experience]
that Jesus Christ is in you—unless you are [counterfeits] disapproved on trial and rejected?

and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself.”
28 And he said to him, “You have given the right answer; do this, and you will live.”
