Psalms 100:5“For the LORD is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations.”

Mark 4:¹⁴The sower soweth the word. ¹⁵And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown; but when they have heard, Satan cometh immediately, and taketh away the word that was sown in their hearts. ¹⁶And these are they likewise which are sown on stony ground; who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with gladness; ¹⁷And have no root in themselves, and so endure but for a time: afterward, when affliction or persecution ariseth for the word's sake, immediately they are offended. ¹⁸And these are they which are sown among thorns; such as hear the word, ¹⁹And the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful. ²⁰And these are they which are sown on good ground; such as hear the word, and receive it, and bring forth fruit, some thirtyfold, some sixty, and some an hundred. 

 

1 Esdras 4:38“As for the truth, it endureth, and is always strong; it liveth and conquereth for evermore.”

1 Peter 1:25“But the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you.”
