“And I turned to see the voice that spake with me. And being turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks; And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle. His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire; And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters. And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth went a sharp twoedged sword: and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength. And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last: I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.” Revelation 1:13-18

“What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare his own Son but gave him up for us all, how will he not also with him graciously give us all things? Who shall bring any charge against God’s elect? It is God who justifies. Who is to condemn? Christ Jesus is the one who died—more than that, who was raised — who is at the right hand of God, who indeed is interceding for us. Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword? As it is written, “For your sake we are being killed all the day long;
we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered.”
No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Romans 8:27-39

“He who overcomes will be clothed in white robes; and I will not erase his name from the book of life, and I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. Write to the angel of the church in Philadelphia: This says the Holy One, the True One, the one who has the key of David, the one who opens and no one closes, and closes and no one opens: I know your works; behold, I have set before you an open door, which no one can shut; because although you have little strength, you have kept my word, and you have not denied my name.” Revelation 3:5-8

“Truly, I say to you, whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven; And whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven. Again I tell you that if two of you agree on earth about whatever they ask, it will be done for them by my Father who is in heaven. For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I in the midst of them.” Matthew 18:18-20
