that Jesus Christ is Lord,
to the glory of God the Father. - It is that very Spirit bearing witness with our spirit that we are children of God.
- Beloved, let us love one another, because love is from God; everyone who loves is born of God and knows God.

“See, the home of God is among mortals.
He will dwell with them as their God;
they will be his peoples,
and God himself will be with them;
he will wipe every tear from their eyes.
Death will be no more;
mourning and crying and pain will be no more,
for the first things have passed away.” - For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
- Put on the whole armor of God, so that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
- For whatever is born of God conquers the world. And this is the victory that conquers the world, our faith.

- Jesus said to her, “Did I not tell you that if you believed, you would see the glory of God?”
- For you need endurance, so that when you have done the will of God, you may receive what was promised.
- So God created humankind in his image,
in the image of God he created them;
male and female he created them. - For the Lord himself, with a cry of command, with the archangel's call and with the sound of God's trumpet, will descend from heaven, and the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up in the clouds together with them to meet the Lord in the air; and so we will be with the Lord forever.
- Jesus answered him, “Very truly, I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God without being born from above.”
- But as for you, man of God, shun all this; pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, endurance, gentleness.
- As servants of God, live as free people, yet do not use your freedom as a pretext for evil.
- You have been born anew, not of perishable but of imperishable seed, through the living and enduring word of God.
And the world and its desire are passing away, but those who do the will of God live forever.God abides in those who confess that Jesus is the Son of God, and they abide in God.
