²⁸ And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

3 Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.

² Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.

³ And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure.

⁹ In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.
