For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.

For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him.

If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.

He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only-begotten Son of God.

You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength.

Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one!

Whoever believes in the Son [Jesus Christ] has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him.

Be Strong

2 Timothy 2:1

You therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.

There is grace enough in Jesus for every need, but we must avail ourselves of it. We live in a battlefield - our life will be tough, and we can expect nothing less; the aim of Christ is to aid our nagivation of the battle field, not take us out of it. And our one aim should be to please Him who chose us to be soldiers. In order to be all that he would have us be, and be able to bear fruit, we must avoid entangling ourselves in the conditions around us. We must resemble a garrison in the town where it is quartered, and from which it may at any hour be summoned away. The less encumbered with worldly matters we are, the more easily shall we be able to execute the least command of our Lord.
