I think it right, as long as I am in this body, to arouse you by way of reminder, since I know that the putting off of my body will be soon, as our Lord Jesus Christ showed me. And I will see to it that after my departure you may be able at any time to recall these things.” John 14:27 - “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you.
