We have an altar, whereof they have no right to eat which serve the tabernacle—Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God—At that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise. But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.
For he is our peace, who hath made both one … having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace.
Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God.
If any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
E XOD. 12:43; H EB. 13:10—JOHN 3:3—EPH. 2:12-13; E PH. 2:14-15—EPH. 2:19; R EV. 3:20

Be ye … followers of God, as dear children—Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; that ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust—Be ye therefore merciful, as your Father also is merciful.
The fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth.
After that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared, not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour—The L ORD is good to all: and his tender mercies are over all his works—He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?
