If any man serves me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serves me, him will my Father honor.

But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, you have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life.
James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting.
