    And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent.
     
  • Romans 9:10-13
    And not only this, but when Rebecca also had conceived by one man, even by our father Isaac (for the children not yet being born, nor having done any good or evil, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works but of Him who calls), it was said to her, "The older shall serve the younger." As it is written, "Jacob I have loved, but Esau I have hated."
     
  • 1 Corinthians 1:24-31
    but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men. For you see your calling, brethren, that not many wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called. But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to put to shame the things which are mighty; and the base things of the world and the things which are despised God has chosen, and the things which are not, to bring to nothing the things that are, that no flesh should glory in His presence. But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God—and righteousness and sanctification and redemption— that, as it is written, "He who glories, let him glory in the LORD."
     
  • Ephesians 1:3-6

  • Genesis 27:39-40
    Then Isaac his father answered and said to him:
    " Behold, your dwelling shall be of the fatness of the earth,
    And of the dew of heaven from above. By your sword you shall live,
    And you shall serve your brother;
    And it shall come to pass, when you become restless,
    That you shall break his yoke from your neck."
     
  • Deuteronomy 7:7-8
    The LORD did not set His love on you nor choose you because you were more in number than any other people, for you were the least of all peoples; but because the LORD loves you, and because He would keep the oath which He swore to your fathers, the LORD has brought you out with a mighty hand, and redeemed you from the house of bondage, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt.

  • Psalm 22:6-7

    And our Lord is above all gods.
    Whatever the LORD pleases He does,
    In heaven and in earth,
    In the seas and in all deep places.

     
  • Psalm 139:21-22
    Do I not hate them, O LORD, who hate You?
    And do I not loathe those who rise up against You?
    I hate them with perfect hatred;
    I count them my enemies.

    “ But you, Israel, are My servant,
    Jacob whom I have chosen,

    And called from its farthest regions,
    And said to you,
    ‘ You are My servant,
    I have chosen you and have not cast you away:
    Fear not, for I am with you;
    Be not dismayed, for I am your God.
    I will strengthen you,
    Yes, I will help you,
    I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.'
    ' Behold, all those who were incensed against you
    Shall be ashamed and disgraced;
    They shall be as nothing,
    And those who strive with you shall perish.
    You shall seek them and not find them'
    Those who contended with you.
    Those who war against you
    Shall be as nothing,
    As a nonexistent thing.
    For I, the LORD your God, will hold your right hand,
    Saying to you, 'Fear not, I will help you.'

    You men of Israel!
    I will help you,” says the LORD
    And your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel.

     
  • Jeremiah 23:21-24
    " I have not sent these prophets, yet they ran.
    I have not spoken to them, yet they prophesied.
    But if they had stood in My counsel,
    And had caused My people to hear My words,
    Then they would have turned them from their evil way
    And from the evil of their doings.
    Am I a God near at hand,” says the LORD,
    “ And not a God afar off?
    Can anyone hide himself in secret places,
    So I shall not see him?' says the LORD;
    ' Do I not fill heaven and earth?' says the LORD.

"So he who had received five talents came and brought five other talents, saying, "Lord, you delivered to me five talents; look, I have gained five more talents besides them."

    And what more shall I say? For the time would fail me to tell of Gideon and Barak and Samson and Jephthah, also of David and Samuel and the prophets: who through faith subdued kingdoms, worked righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions, quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, became valiant in battle, turned to flight the armies of the aliens. Women received their dead raised to life again. Others were tortured, not accepting deliverance, that they might obtain a better resurrection. Still others had trial of mockings and scourgings, yes, and of chains and imprisonment. They were stoned, they were sawn in two, were tempted, were slain with the sword. They wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins, being destitute, afflicted, tormented— of whom the world was not worthy. They wandered in deserts and mountains, in dens and caves of the earth. And all these, having obtained a good testimony through faith, did not receive the promise,
