Certain


Having carefully investigated everything from the beginning, I also have decided to write a careful account for you, most honorable Theophilus, so you can be certain of the truth of everything you were taught.

"This is the way God works. Over and over again He pulls our souls back from certain destruction so we'll see the light—and live in the light.

Enjoy prosperity while you can, but when hard times strike, realize that both come from God. Remember that nothing is certain in this life.

I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have [perfect] peace and confidence. In the world you have tribulation and trials and distress and frustration; but be of good cheer [take courage; be confident, certain, undaunted]! For I have overcome the world. [I have deprived it of power to harm you and have conquered it for you.]

For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, it is much more [certain], now that we are reconciled, that we shall be saved (daily delivered from sin's dominion) through His [ resurrection] life.

Our great desire is that you will keep on loving others as long as life lasts, in order to make certain that what you hope for will come true.

Luke 1:4 Job 33:29 Ecclesiastes 7:14 John 16:33 Romans 5:10 Hebrews 6:11

Keep your eyes on God and you’ll soon lose sight of your fears.
