Therefore, since we have been declared righteous by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,

So then, whenever we have an opportunity, let us do good to all people, and especially to those who belong to the family of faith.

So since we are receiving an unshakable kingdom, let us give thanks, and through this let us offer worship pleasing to God in devotion and awe.

For everything that was written in former times was written for our instruction, so that through endurance and through encouragement of the scriptures we may have hope.

so that we who have found refuge in him may find strong encouragement to hold fast to the hope set before us through two unchangeable things, since it is impossible for God to lie.

By this love is perfected with us, so that we may have confidence in the day of judgment, because just as Jesus is, so also are we in this world.
