Endurance

He who is of God hears the words of God. For this cause you don’t hear, because you are not of God.”

Open my eyes, that I may see wondrous things out of your law.

Don’t be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God.

“I know your works, your love, faith, service, patient endurance, and that your last works are more than the first.

Therefore I endure all things for the chosen ones’ sake, that they also may obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.

Blessed are those who have been persecuted for righteousness’ sake, for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven.
