Romans 10:9
If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

Romans 12:9

Romans 13:5
Therefore, it is necessary to submit to the authorities, not only because of possible punishment but also as a matter of conscience.

if anyone of you can do the same for the Old

@mcubed I do appreciate your contribution but my intention is to have some kind of a "bible directory" or verses in such a way that it can feel like a "quicker review" to get the feel of having a more "bigger picture perspective" of the Bible

and they can be useful guides, even in spiritual dryness, they can be referred to ... to help people "keep going" on reading the Bible

Certainly a worthy endeavor but far beyond the scope of a message board like this. If we could edit our posts beyond the five minute window we could add new verses to the list.

I recommend this online resource which I believe can accomplish what you are looking for ... it's called the Treasury of Scripture Knowledge.

I'll try to add what I can, though it might take a while. Here's a few that someone sent me, and only a few at a time.

I am chosen by Christ to bear fruit. (John 15:6)
I am joint heir with Christ, sharing his inheritance with Him. (Romans 9:17)
I have been made complete in Christ. (Colossians 2:10)
I have been given a spirit of power, love, and self-discipline. (2 Timothy 1:7)

Wonderful, I am pleased to see that you can accomplish what I'm not able to do, big picture perspective, and a bible verse that represents the whole BOOK (for each 66 book)

I believe that you are a Bible Scholar,
if you say that you are rambling, I can hardly believe you.

May God keep you wise and humble, in the sight of God, amen
