Hebrews 12:1

I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith:

Holding forth the word of life; that I may rejoice in the day of Christ, that I have not run in vain, neither laboured in vain.

And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares.

Ye did run well; who did hinder you that ye should not obey the truth?

Wherefore laying aside all malice, and all guile, and hypocrisies, and envies, and all evil speakings,

Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer;

Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.

No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.

Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience.

To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life:

And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man’s life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth.

That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God.

Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.

And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness;

I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.

By Silvanus, a faithful brother unto you, as I suppose, I have written briefly, exhorting, and testifying that this is the true grace of God wherein ye stand.

For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment.

He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.

Who are these that fly as a cloud, and as the doves to their windows?

I was also upright before him, and I kept myself from mine iniquity.

I John, who also am your brother, and companion in tribulation, and in the kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was in the isle that is called Patmos, for the word of God, and for the testimony of Je...

And what he hath seen and heard, that he testifieth; and no man receiveth his testimony.
