“And the Lord answered me: ‘Write the vision; make it plain on tablets, so he may run who reads it. For still the vision awaits its appointed time; it hastens to the end—it will not lie. If it seems slow, wait for it; it will surely come; it will not delay.’” —Habakkuk 2:2-4
“See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are. The reason why the world does not know us is that it did not know him.

And everyone who has this hope fixed on Him purifies himself, just as He is pure.” —I John 3:1-3
“And everyone who has this hope fixed on Him purifies himself, just as He is pure.” —1 John 3:3
