Revelation 21:7

The New Heaven, New Earth, And New Jerusalem

⁶ Then He said to me, "These things have already happened. [Note: These words express the certainty of what has been predicted in this book, even though not all the events had actually taken place yet]. I am the Alpha and the Omega [See note at 1:8], the beginning and the end. I will give the person who is [spiritually] thirsty [a drink] from the spring of water of life without his having to pay for it. ⁷ The person who has victory [in the Christian life] will inherit these things, and I will be his God and he will be my child. ⁸ But the place for cowards, and unbelievers, and disgusting people [i.e., because of their terrible sins], and murderers, and sexually immoral people, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, will be the lake that burns with fire and sulphur. This is the second death."

Romans 8:15-17

For you did not receive the Holy Spirit, to enslave you again to fear, [Note: Some translators take "Holy Spirit" here to be "spirit," making the verse say "you did not receive the spirit of slavery"], but you received the Holy Spirit [who produces] sonship, so we can call out, "Abba", [which means] "Father."

So, no one should boast about [the knowledge or position of] people. For all things belong to you,

1 John 3:1-3

Look at how much love the Father has shown to us [Christians], that we should be called His children! But, that is what we [really] are! The reason the people of the world do not know who we are is because they do not know who God [really] is.

Revelation 2:7

"The person who has an ear should listen to what the Holy Spirit is saying to the churches.

See II Cor. 12:4].
