1 John 3:1-2
English Standard Version
3 See (A)what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called (B)children of God; and so we are.

Father!” 16 (G)The Spirit himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, 17 and if children, then (H)heirs—heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, (I)provided we suffer with him in order that we may also be glorified with him.

Hebrews 2:10-15
English Standard Version
10 For it (A)was fitting that he, (B)for whom and by whom all things exist, in bringing many sons (C)to glory, should make the (D)founder of their salvation (E)perfect through suffering. 11 For (F)he who sanctifies and (G)those who are sanctified (H)all have one source.[a] That is why he is not ashamed to call them (I)brothers,[b] 12 saying,
(J)“I will tell of your name to my brothers;
in the midst of the (K)congregation I will sing your praise.”
13 And again,
(L)“I will put my trust in him.”
And again,
14 Since therefore the children share in flesh and blood, he himself likewise (O)partook of the same things, that (P)through death he might (Q)destroy (R)the one who has the power of death, that is, the devil, 15 and deliver all those who (S)through fear of death were subject to lifelong slavery.
