The Race of Faith

12 Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, ^(A)let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and ^(B)let us run ^(C)with endurance the race that is set before us,

^7 (A)I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.

⁴ For ^(A)whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that ^(B)has overcome the world—^[a]our faith. ⁵ Who is he who overcomes the world, but ^(C)he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?
