'Persuaded' in the Bible

And to whom did He swear [an oath] that they would not enter His rest, but to those who disobeyed [those who would not listen to His word]?

But, beloved, we are persuaded better things of you, and things that accompany salvation, though we thus speak.

These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.

Pray for us: for we are persuaded that we have a good conscience, desiring to live honorably in all things.
