- 2:36He said, not only are you predestinated, not only are you called, but you already justified to whom he justified.
- 2:43Then he also glorified.
- 2:45That's why it doesn't matter to me.
- 2:47Who's for me, because I know who is for me.
- 2:53What shall we then say to these things if God be for us, who can be against?
- 2:58He said, I don't care who's against you.
- 3:00If God is for you, I promise you.
- 3:04All right.

- 4:43Remember the word that I say unto you?
- 4:46Un the servant is not greater than his Lord, if they have persecuted me.
- 4:52They will also persecute you.
- 4:55If they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also, but all these things will they do unto you for my namesake because they know not him that sent me.
- 5:12If I had not come and spoken to them, they had not had sin, but now.
