• Romans 8:37

  No, in all these things, we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.

• Romans 8:1-39

  [1] There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who don't walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. [2] For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus made me free from the law of sin and of death. [3] For what the law couldn't do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God did, sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and for sin, he condemned sin in the flesh; [4] that the ordinance of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. [5] For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit. [6] For the mind of the flesh is death, but the mind of the Spirit is life and peace; [7] because the mind of the flesh is hostile towards God; for it is not subject to God's law, neither indeed can it be. [8] Those who are in the flesh can't please God. [9] But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if it is so that the Spirit of God dwells in you. But if any man doesn't have the Spirit of Christ, he is not his. [10] If Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the spirit is alive because of righteousness. [11] But if the Spirit of him who raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised up Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you. [12] So then, brothers, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh. [13] For if you live after the flesh, you must die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live. [14] For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are children of God. [15] For you didn't receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption, by whom we cry, "Abba! Father!" [16] The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are children of God; [17] and if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if indeed we suffer with him, that we may also be glorified with him. [18] For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which will be revealed toward us. [19] For the creation waits with eager expectation for the children of God to be revealed. [20] For the creation was subjected to vanity, not of its own will, but because of him who subjected it, in hope [21] that the creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of decay into the liberty of the glory of the children of God. [22] For we know that the whole creation groans and travails in pain together until now. [23] Not only so, but ourselves also, who have the first fruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for adoption, the redemption of our body. [24] For we were saved in hope, but hope that is seen is not hope. For who hopes for that which he sees? [25] But if we hope for that which we don't see, we wait for it with patience. [26] In the same way, the Spirit also helps our weaknesses, for we don't know how to pray as we ought. But the Spirit himself makes intercession for us with groanings which can't be uttered. [27] He who searches the hearts knows what is on the Spirit's mind, because he makes intercession for the saints according to God. [28] We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose. [29] For whom he foreknew, he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers. [30] Whom he predestined, those he also called. Whom he called, those he also justified. Whom he justified, those he also glorified. [31] What then shall we say about these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? [32] He who didn't spare his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how would he not also with him freely give us all things? [33] Who could bring a charge against God's chosen ones? It is God who justifies. [34] Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, yes rather, who was raised from the dead, who is at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us. [35] Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Could oppression, or anguish, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? [36] Even as it is written, "For your sake we are killed all day long. We were accounted as sheep for the slaughter." [37] No, in all these things, we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. [38] For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, [39] nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

• 1 John 4:4

  You are of God, little children, and have overcome them; because greater is he who is in you than he who is in the world.

• Ephesians 6:11

  Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

• Romans 8:28

  We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose.

• Romans 8:35-39

  [35] Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Could oppression, or anguish, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? [36] Even as it is written, "For your sake we are killed all day long. We were accounted as sheep for the slaughter." [37] No, in all these things, we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. [38] For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, [39] nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

• John 3:16

  For God so loved the world, that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life.

• Hebrews 11:1-40

  [1] Now faith is assurance of things hoped for, proof of things not seen. [2] For by this, the elders obtained testimony. [3] By faith, we understand that the universe has been framed by the word of God, so that what is seen has not been made out of things which are visible. [4] By faith, Abel offered to God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, through which he had testimony given to him that he was righteous, God bearing witness with respect to his gifts; and through it he, being dead, still speaks. [5] By faith, Enoch was taken away, so that he wouldn't see death, and he was not found, because God translated him. For he has had testimony given to him that before his translation he had been well pleasing to God. [6] Without faith it is impossible to be well pleasing to him, for he who comes to God must believe that he exists, and that he is a rewarder of those who seek him. [7] By faith, Noah, being warned about things not yet seen, moved with godly fear, prepared an ark for the saving of his house, through which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is according to faith. [8] By faith, Abraham, when he was called, obeyed to go out to the place which he was to receive for an inheritance. He went out, not knowing where he went. [9] By faith, he lived as an alien in the land of promise, as in a land not his own, dwelling in tents, with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise. [10] For he looked for the city which has the foundations, whose builder and maker is God. [11] By faith, even Sarah herself received power to conceive, and she bore a child when she was past age, since she counted him faithful who had promised. [12] Therefore as many as the stars of the sky in multitude, and as innumerable as the sand which is by the sea shore, were fathered by one man, and him as good as dead. [13] These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them and embraced them from afar, and having confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth. [14] For those who say such things make it clear that they are seeking after a country of their own. [15] If indeed they had been thinking of that country from which they went out, they would have had enough time to return. [16] But now they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed of them, to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them. [17] By faith, Abraham, being tested, offered up Isaac. Yes, he who had gladly received the promises was offering up his one and only son; [18] even he to whom it was said, "In Isaac will your seed be called;" [19] accounting that God is able to raise up even from the dead. Figuratively speaking, he also did receive him back from the dead. [20] By faith, Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau, even concerning things to come. [21] By faith, Jacob, when he was dying, blessed each of the sons of Joseph, and worshiped, leaning on the top of his staff. [22] By faith, Joseph, when his end was near, made mention of the departure of the children of Israel; and gave instructions concerning his bones. [23] By faith, Moses, when he was born, was hidden for three months by his parents, because they saw that he was a beautiful child, and they were not afraid of the king's commandment. [24] By faith, Moses, when he had grown up, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter, [25] choosing rather to share ill treatment with God's people, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a time; [26] accounting the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures of Egypt; for he looked to the reward. [27] By faith, he left Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king; for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible. [28] By faith, he kept the Passover, and the sprinkling of the blood, that the destroyer of the firstborn should not touch them. [29] By faith, they passed through the Red sea as on dry land. When the Egyptians tried to do so, they were swallowed up. [30] By faith, the walls of Jericho fell down, after they had been encircled for seven days. [31] By faith, Rahab the prostitute, didn't perish with those who were disobedient, having received the spies in peace. [32] What more shall I say? For the time would fail me if I told of Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, David, Samuel, and the prophets; [33] who, through faith subdued kingdoms, worked out righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions, [34] quenched the power of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, from weakness were made strong, grew mighty in war, and turned to flight armies of aliens. [35] Women received their dead by resurrection. Others were tortured, not accepting their deliverance, that they might obtain a better resurrection. [36] Others were tried by mocking and scourging, yes, moreover by bonds and imprisonment. [37] They were stoned. They were sawn apart. They were tempted. They were slain with the sword. They went around in sheep skins and in goat skins; being destitute, afflicted, ill-treated [38] (of whom the world was not worthy), wandering in deserts, mountains, caves, and the holes of the earth. [39] These all, having had testimony given to them through their faith, didn't receive the promise, [40] God having provided some better thing concerning us, so that apart from us they should not be made perfect.

• John 16:33

  I have told you these things, that in me you may have peace. In the world you have oppression; but cheer up! I have overcome the world."

• 2 Corinthians 5:21

  For him who knew no sin he made to be sin on our behalf; so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.
