a John 7:37-39 (On the last day of the festival, the great day, while Jesus
was standing there, he cried out, “Let anyone who is thirsty come to me,
and let the one who believes in me drink. As the scripture has said, ‘Out of
the believer’s heart shall flow rivers of living water.’” Now he said this about
the Spirit, which believers in him were to receive; for as yet there was no
Spirit, because Jesus was not yet glorified.)
b John 15:1-8 (“I am the true vine, and my Father is the vinegrower. He
removes every branch in me that bears no fruit. Every branch that bears
fruit he prunes to make it bear more fruit…)
c John 8:50-54 (Yet I do not seek my own glory; there is one who seeks it
and he is the judge. Very truly, I tell you, whoever keeps my word will never
see death.”…)
Philippians 2:5-8
d Matthew 19:21 (Jesus said to him, “If you wish to be perfect, go, sell your
possessions, and give the money to the poor, and you will have treasure in
heaven, then come, follow me.”)
e Ecclesiastes 3:20-21 (All go to one place; all are from the dust, and all turn
to dust again. Who knows whether the human spirit goes upward and the
spirit of animals goes downward to the earth?)
Ecclesiastes 1:7
f Luke 1:32 (He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Most High,
and the Lord God will give to him the throne of his ancestor David.)
g Hebrews 12:1-2 (Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud
of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight and the sin that clings so
closely, and let us run with perseverance the race that is set before us,
looking to Jesus the pioneer and perfecter of our faith, who for the sake of
the joy that was set before him endured the cross, disregarding its shame,
and has taken his seat at the right hand of the throne of God.)
Hebrews 1:1-6
