33 – There would be a high degree of absurdity in supposing that God would both justify and condemn the same individual.

34 – How others interact or how we perceive others think about us should no longer determine how we feel or think about ourselves.

35 – The reasonable conclusion is if God is on your side, if He loves you, everything and anything can be endured.

37 – We do not allow ourselves to slip into doubting God’s love or into self-grading analysis because bad things happen.

39 – Such confidence is developed by the understanding of the Scriptures due to study and application.
