G'day All;
In this time of rapid change I love, rely upon, am encouraged, am strengthened by, and live in this pledge of sincerity and security beyond measure;
2 Cor 1;21 " NOW GOD IS THE ONE WHO STRENGTHENS US,
TOGETHER WITH YOU,
IN CHRIST,
AND HAS ANNOINTED US,
AND WHO HAS ALSO SEALED US AND GIVEN US HIS SPIRIT IN OUR HEARTS AS A PLEDGE."
Amen!
2 Cor 4;6 " For it is the God Who said,
' Out of darkness light will shine,'
Who has flooded our hearts with the light of the glorious knowledge of God in the face of Christ."
We are encouraged to focus on the things to come, thanks to Christ, no matter how they may appear to others.

:thumbsup: :thumbsup: :banana: amen.. the pledge of God.. He gave his promise, gave his word.. the Spirit in our heart which says Father my Father, is the downpayment of what's to come.. that He will fulfill all things in us.. finish the good work he has begun.. it's the notary stamp.. and the seal like his thumbprint seal on a letter..
And the more we become acquainted with him, the more we notice all the "alls" in His Word..
John 1:9 - Young's Literal Translation
He was the true Light, which doth enlighten every man, coming to the world;
New American Standard Bible
There was the true Light which, coming into the world, enlightens every man.
"every" from "pas" - all, every, the whole
Aramaic Bible in Plain English
For That One was The Light of Truth, which enlightens every person that comes into the world.
...so many "alls" in His Word of promise, his pledge..
