But the Pharisees said, " By the ruler of the demons He casts out demons."
For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again unto fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, "Abba, Father."
For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.
Therefore, since we are receiving an unshakable kingdom, let us have grace, through which we serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear.
You believe God is one. You do well. Even the demons believe--and they shudder!
No one has ever seen God. If we love one another, God abides in us, and His love has been perfected in us.
