FAITH

Matthew 17

19: Then the disciples came to Jesus in private and asked him, “Why couldn’t we drive the demon out?”

20: “It was because you did not have enough faith,” answered Jesus. “Remember this! If you say to this hill, “Go from here to there!’ and it will go. You could do anything.”

Ephesians 4

5: There is one Lord, one faith, one baptism;

6: there is one God and Father of all men, who is Lord of all, works through all, and is in all.

Colossians 1

23: You must of course, continue faithful on a firm and sure foundation, and not allow yourselves to be shaken from the hope you gained when you heard the gospel.

HOPE

Romans 5

1: Now that we have been put right with God through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.

2: He has brought us , by faith, into this experience of God’s grace, in which we now live. We rejoice, then, in the hope we have of sharing God’s glory!

3: And we also rejoice in our troubles, because we know that trouble produces endurance,

4: endurance brings God’s approval, and his approval creates hope.

5: This hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by means of the Holy Spirit, who is God’s gift to us.

Titus 3

6: God poured out the Holy Spirit abundantly on us, through Jesus Christ our Savior,

7: so that by his grace we may be put right with God and come into possession of the eternal life we hope for.

1 Peter 1

13: Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and hope to the end for the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ.

LOVE

Matthew 22

36: “Teacher, he asked, “which is the greatest commandment in the Law?”

37: Jesus answered, “You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.”

38: “This is the greatest and most important commandment.”

39: “The second most important commandment is like it:’”You must love your fellow man as yourself.”

John 14

21: “Whoever accepts my commandments and obeys them, he is the one who loves me. My Father will love him who loves me; I too will love him and reveal myself to him.”

Ephesians 3

19: Yes may you come to know his love—although it can never be fully known—and so be completely filled with the perfect fullness of God.

20: To him who is able to do so much more than we can ever ask for, or even think of, by means of the power working in us:

21: To God be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus, for all time, forever and ever! Amen
