20 For as many as are the promises of God, in him they are Yes. And so through him we speak our Amen to the glory of God.
21 Now it is God who establishes us with you in Christ, and has anointed us;
22 he has put his seal on us and given us his Spirit in our hearts as a guarantee.
23 Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for he who promised is faithful;
12 Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, for when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him.
13 In him, you also have heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation. Having also believed, you were sealed in him with the promised Holy Spirit,
14 who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance, until the redemption of those who are God's possessionto the praise of his glory.
