Hebrews 10: 17 – 18 Then he adds: “Their sins and lawless acts I will remember no more.” and where there has been forgiveness, there is no longer any sacrifice for sin. Matthew 28: 20 Teach them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age. John 10: 27 – 30 My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one can snatch them out of my hand.
