be for the praise of his glory.
13And you also were included
in Christ when you heard the word
of truth, the gospel of your
salvation. Having believed, you
were marked in him with a seal,
the promised Holy Spirit,
14who is a deposit
guaranteeing our inheritance until
the redemption of those who are
God's possession—to the praise of
his glory.
(Ephesians 1:11-14), NIV

the Lord as a reward. It is the
Lord Christ you are serving.
(Colossians 3:23,24), NIV
8If anyone does not provide
for his relatives, and especially
for his immediate family, he has
denied the faith and is worse than
an unbeliever.
(1 Timothy 5:8), NIV
3Blessed be the God and
Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
which according to his abundant
mercy hath begotten us again unto
a lively hope by the resurrection
of Jesus Christ from the dead,
4To an inheritance
incorruptible, and undefiled, and
that fadeth not away, reserved in
heaven for you,
(1 Peter 1:3,4)
