Closing Remarks

Paul ends his letter to Timothy, "The Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit: Grace be with you. Amen (2 Timothy 4:22).

Jesus not only said, "I am with you always, even to the end of the age" (Matthew 28:20), He said that He and his Father and the Holy Spirit will abide in the ones who obey his words and love him (John 14:15-18, 23 ).

"If God is for us, who can be against us?" (Romans 8:31-32).  In other words, we will have all the grace we need to remain steadfast in the things of God. When we are consciously aware of his Grace abounding in and toward us, we can be at peace while standing firm.
