11.21 Evening:


His dear Son.

Lo a Voice from Heaven, saying, This is My Beloved Son, in Whom I am well pleased.―Behold My Servant, Whom I uphold; Mine Elect, in Whom My Soul delighteth.―The only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father.

In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him. Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us, and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins. . . And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and He that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.

The glory which Thou gavest Me I have given them; that they may be One, even as we are One: I in them, and Thou in Me, that they may be made perfect in One; and that the world may know that Thou hast sent Me, and hast loved them, as Thou hast loved Me.―Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God.

Col 1:13 Mt 3:17 Isa 42:1 Joh 1:18 1Jo 4:9,10,16 Joh 17:22,23 1Jo 3:1

11.21 Evening:

(Colossians 1:13)Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the Kingdom of His dear Son:

(Matthew 3:17)And lo a Voice from Heaven, saying, This is My Beloved Son, in Whom I am well pleased.--(Isaiah 42:1)Behold My Servant, Whom I uphold; Mine Elect, in Whom My Soul delighteth; I have put My Spirit upon Him: He shall bring forth judgment to the Gentiles.--(John 1:18)No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, He hath declared Him.

(I John 4:9,10)In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him. Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us, and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins...(I John 4:16)And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and He that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.

(John 17:22-24)And the glory which Thou gavest Me I have given them; that they may be One, even as we are One: I in them, and Thou in Me, that they may be made perfect in One; and that the world may know that Thou hast sent Me, and hast loved them, as Thou hast loved Me. 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.--(I John 3:1)Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew Him not.
