HEAVENLY
PROMISES
Notice that these are made only to the Church. And these
all, having obtained a good report through faith, received
not the promise: God having provided some better thing for
us, that they without us should not be made perfect. (Heb.
11:39,40)
And this is the promise that he hath promised us, even eternal
life. (I John 2:25)
And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also
bear the image of the heavenly. (1 Cor. 15:49)
The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that
we are the children of God: And if children, then heirs;
heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that
we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.
(Rom. 8:16,17)
Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father’s good
pleasure to give you the kingdom. (Luke 12:32)
Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe
also in me. In my Father’s house are many mansions:
if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare
a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you,
I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where
I am, there ye may be also. (John 14:1-3)
Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me,
be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory, which
thou hast given me: for thou lovedst me before the foundation
of the world. (John 17:24)
To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my
throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my
Father in his throne. (Rev. 3:21)
According as his divine power hath given unto us all things
that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge
of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: Whereby
are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises:
that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature,
having escaped the corruption that is in the world through
lust. (2 Pet. 1:3,4)
It is a faithful saying: For if we be dead with him, we
shall also live with him: If we suffer, we shall also reign
with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us: (2 Tim.
2:11,12)
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. And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself,
even as he is pure. (1 John 3:2,3)
Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your
calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye
shall never fall: For so an entrance shall be ministered
unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our
Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. (2 Pet. 1:10,11)
And the Lord shall deliver me from every evil work, and
will preserve me unto his heavenly kingdom: to whom be glory
for ever and ever. Amen. (2 Tim. 4:18)
