And ye know that He was manifested to take away our sins; in Him that is no sin. By grace are ye saved through faith, and that not of yourselves but by the grace of God. Hereby perceive we the love of God because He laid down His life for us; and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren. (I John 3:16)
We love Him because He first loved us. (I John 5:19)
And this is the confidence that we have in Him that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us and if we know that He hears us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of Him. (I John 5:14-15)
I will sing of the mercies of the LORD for ever: with my mouth will I make known your faithfulness to all generations. (Psalm 89:1-2)
Finally, earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. Remember the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ. Keep yourself in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. Now unto Him that is able to keep you from falling and who will present those who love Jesus as faultless before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy.
To the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and forever. Stand in the offering plate.
