I believed, therefore have I spoken: I was greatly afflicted:
A false witness shall perish: but the man that hears speaks constantly.
We having the same spirit of faith, according as it is written, I believed, and therefore have I spoken; we also believe, and therefore speak;
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
For we have not followed cunningly devised myths, when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of his majesty.
For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit.
