I and the Father are One.

And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.

Nevertheless the solid foundation of God stands firm, having this seal: The Lord knows those who are His, and, Let everyone who names the name of Christ depart from iniquity.

who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.

And they overcame him through the blood of the Lamb and through the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives unto death.
