11. Favorite Words In all the Bible But God! But God has revealed them to us through the Holy Spirit…yes the deep things of God But God demonstrated His love for us that while we were yet sinners, Jesus died for us But God be thanked that though you were slaved to sin…you have fruit to holiness, and the end, everlasting life But God chose the foolish things
