*1 Timothy 4:10- (and for this we labor and strive), that we have put our hope in the living God, who is the Savior of all men, and especially of those who believe.
*2 Timothy 2:11-13- Here is a trustworthy saying:
If we died with him,
we will also live with him;
if we endure,
we will also reign with him.
If we disown him,
he will also disown us;
if we are faithless,
he will remain faithful,
for he cannot disown himself.
