 Unto an  inheritance  incorruptible  and  undefiled, and that  cannot  fade  —  reserved  in  heaven  for  you (i Pet.  i.  3,  4).

Glorious things  are  said  of  thee,  O  city  of  God. . . The  dwelling  in  thee  is,  as  it  were,  of  all  rejoicing  (Ps. lxxxvi.  3,  7).

He shall  cast  death  down  headlong  forever:  and the Lord  God  shall  wipe  away  tears  from  every  face (Is. XXV.  8).

They shall  be  inebriated  with  the  plenty  of  Thy house; Thou  (O  Lord  God)  shalt  make  them  drink of the  torrent  of  Thy  pleasure  (Ps.  xxxv.  9).

F thy  foot  scandalize  thee,  cut  it  off. It is  better for thee  to  enter  lame  into  life  everlasting,  than having two  feet,  to  be  cast  into  the  hell  of  unquenchable fire:  where  their  worm  dieth  not  (Mark  ix.  44).

Labor not  for  the  meat  which  perisheth  but  for  that which endureth  unto  life  everlasting,  which  the  Son of man  will  give  you  (John  vi.  27).

Everyone that  strive the for  the  mastery,  refraineth himself from  all  things;  and  they  indeed  that  they may receive  a  corruptible  crown;  but  we  an  incorruptible one  (i  Cor.  ix.  25).

Humble thy  spirit  very  much;  for  the  vengeance on the  flesh  of  the  ungodly  is  fire  and  worms  (Ecclus. vii.  19).

y son,  prove  thy  soul  in  thy  life;  and  if  it  be wicked,  give  it  no  power  (Ecclus.  xxxvii.  30). The patient  man  is  better  than  the  valiant:  and he that  ruleth  his  spirit  (better)  than  he  that  taketh cities (Prov.  xvi.  32).
