  • John 14:21-23 : 21 The one who has my commandments and keeps them is the one who loves me. The one who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him and will reveal myself to him. 22 Judas (not Iscariot) said to him, 'Lord, how is it that you are going to reveal yourself to us, and not to the world?' 23 Jesus answered, 'If anyone loves me, he will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our dwelling with him.'
  • John 15:9-9 : 9 As the Father has loved me, so I have loved you. Now remain in my love. 10 If you keep my commandments, you will remain in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s commandments and remain in his love. 11 I have told you these things so that my joy may be in you and your joy may be complete. 12 This is my commandment: Love one another as I have loved you. 13 Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. 14 You are my friends if you do what I command. 15 I no longer call you servants because a servant does not know what his master is doing. Instead, I have called you friends because everything I heard from my Father I have made known to you.
  • Rom 5:8-9 : 8 But God shows His love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. 9 Much more then, since we have now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from the wrath of God through Him. 10 For if, while we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life.
  • Rom 8:28-39 : 28 And we know that all things work together for the good of those who love God, who are called according to His purpose. 29 For those God foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, so that He would be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters. 30 And those He predestined, He also called; and those He called, He also justified; and those He justified, He also glorified. 31 What then shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? 32 He who did not spare His own Son but gave Him up for us all—how will He not also, along with Him, graciously give us all things? 33 Who will bring any charge against God’s elect? It is God who justifies. 34 Who then is the one who condemns? No one. Christ Jesus who died—more than that, who was raised to life—is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us. 35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? 36 As it is written: 'For Your sake we face death all day long; we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered.' 37 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. 38 For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor rulers, neither powers, neither things present nor things to come, 39 neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
