"Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth My word, and believeth on Him that sent Me hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life." John 5:2424Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life. (John 5:24).
"Verily, verily," Jesus, Lord,
Were Thine own words when here;
The soul that hearkens to Thy word
Need never doubt nor fear.

All who believe, in simple faith,
From God that Thou wert sent,
"Life everlasting" surely "hath",
For which Thine own was spent

To condemnation ne'er shall come,
For Thou hast borne it all;
The perfect work that Thou hast done
Can never change nor fall.

Passed they are from death to life,
Before the throne of God;
And all that can against them rise,
Atoned for by Thy blood.
Then make each seeking, anxious heart
Bow low before Thy word:
And, by Thy Holy Spirit taught,
Own Thee as Savior, Lord!
"TO HIM THAT WORKETH IS THE REWARD NOT RECKONED OF GRACE, BUT OF DEBT." "BUT TO HIM THAT WORKETH NOT, BUT BELIEVETH ON HIM THAT JUSTIFIETH THE UNGODLY, HIS FAITH IS COUNTED FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS." "BLESSED ARE THEY WHOSE INIQUITIES ARE FORGIVEN, AND WHOSE SINS ARE COVERED." Rom. 4:4, 5, 74Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt. 5But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness. (Romans 4:4‑5)
7Saying, Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered. (Romans 4:7)
