Hebrews 6:9-12
New King James Version
A Better Estimate
9 But, beloved, we are confident of better things concerning you, yes, things that accompany salvation, though we speak in this manner. 10 For (A)God is not unjust to forget (B)your work and [a]labor of love which you have shown toward His name, in that you have (C)ministered to the saints, and do minister. 11 And we desire that each one of you show the same diligence (D)to the full assurance of hope until the end, 12 that you do not become [b]sluggish, but imitate those who through faith and patience (E)inherit the promises.
