Verse Concepts

And verily, we who are in the tent, do sigh, being weighed down, while yet we are not wishing to unclothe ourselves, but to clothe ourselves over, - in order that, what is mortal, may be swallowed up, by life. Now, he that hath wrought us for this very thing, is, God, - who hath given unto us the earnest of the Spirit, Having good courage, therefore, at all times, and knowing that - remaining at home in the body, we are away from home from the Lord, - By faith, are we walking, not by sight; - We have good courage, however, and are well pleased - rather to be away from home, out of the body, and to come home, unto the Lord.
