II Corinthians 4:5-7
"For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus' sake. For God, Who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us."

"He that overcomes shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be My son." Revelation 21:7
That becomes the 8th covenant. Eight is the number of regeneration which in its fullness means that the person has no longer the faintest interest in that which is of this world, but only that which approaches a perpetual glory in Christ the Lord for Whom to live and with Him to live. Or does it mean nothing to you that He willingly endured hell intensified throughout more than 5½ hours in order that you might eternally rejoice in His Presence? What little child is there that does not rejoice in the presence and love of the parents? "And I will be his God, and he shall be My Son." Are you shouting Hallelujah? Or must the "dragon" have you for supper?
