†… KNOWING WHO YOU ARE IN CHRIST, But you are A CHOSEN PEOPLE, A ROYAL PRIESTHOOD, A HOLY NATION, GODS SPECIAL POSSESSION, that you may declare the praise of Him who CALLED you OUT OF DARKNESS INTO HIS WONDERFUL LIGHT. Once you were not a people, but now you are THE PEOPLE OF GOD; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy. I Peter 2:9-10 For HE CHOSE US IN HIM BEFORE THE CREATION OF THE WORLD to be holy and blameless in His sight. In love He PREDESTINED US FOR ADOPTION TO SONSHIP THROUGH JESUS CHRIST, in accordance with His pleasure and will---to the praise of His glorious grace, which He has freely given us in the One He loves. In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of Gods grace that He lavished on us. Ephesians 1:4-8 For He has RESCUED US FROM THE DOMINION OF DARKNESS & BROUGHT US INTO THE KINGDOM OF THE SON HE LOVES, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins. Colossians 1:13-14 CONSEQUENTLY, YOU ARE NO LONGER FOREIGNERS & STRANGERS, but fellow citizen with Gods people and also members of His household. Ephesians 2:19 He saved us and called us to a holy life---not because of anything we have done but BECAUSE OF HIS OWN PURPOSE AND GRACE. This grace was given us in Jesus Christ before the beginning of time, but it has now been revealed through the appearing of our Savior, Jesus Christ, who has destroyed death and has brought life and immorality to light through the gospel. II Timothy 1:9-10 He saved us, NOT BECAUSE OF RIGHTEOUS THINGS WE HAD DONE, but because of His mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit, whom He poured out on us generously through Jesus Christ our Savior, so that, having been justified by His grace, we might BECOME HEIRS HAVING THE HOPE OF ETERNAL LIFE. Titus 3:5-7 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. In His great mercy He has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, and into AN INHERITANCE THAT CAN NEVER PERISH, SPOIL OR FADE. This inheritance is kept in heaven for you, who through faith are SHIELDED BY GODS POWER until the coming of the salvation that is ready to be revealed in the last time. I Peter 1:3-5 And this is testimony: GOD HAS GIVEN US ETERNAL LIFE, AND THIS LIFE IS IN HIS SON. Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life. I John 5:11 THROUGH HIM YOU BELIEVE IN GOD, who raised Him from the dead and glorified Him, and SO YOUR FAITH AND HOPE ARE IN GOD. I Peter 1:21 LET US DRAW NEAR TO GOD WITH A SINCERE HEART & WITH THE FULL ASSURANCE THAT FAITH BRINGS, having our heart sprinkles to cleanse us from a guilty conscience and having our bodies washed with pure water. Hebrews 10:22 FAITH IS A CONFIDENCE IN WHAT WE HOPE FOR & ASSURANCE ABOUT WHAT WE DO NOT SEE. Hebrews 11:1
