Sons and Heirs
26 For you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus [Galatians 3:26 NKJV]
Then He said to them all, “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me [Luke 9:23 NKJV]
And now why are you waiting? Arise and be baptized, and wash away your sins, calling on the name of the Lord [Acts 22:16 NKJV]
14 What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him? 15 If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food, 16 and one of you says to them, “Depart in peace, be warmed and filled,” but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body, what does it profit? 17 Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.
12 For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart [Hebrews 4:12 NKJV].
16 Rejoice always, 17 pray without ceasing, 18 in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you [1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 NKJV]
40 A disciple is not above his teacher, but everyone who is perfectly trained will be like his teacher [Luke 6:40 NKJV].
34 A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another. 35 By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another [John 13:34-35 NKJV].
