Revelation 211-4 Then I saw a new heaven and a
new earth, for the first heaven and the first
earth had passed away, and there was no longer
any sea. I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem,
coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a
bride beautifully dressed for her husband. And I
heard a loud voice from the throne saying, "Now
the dwelling of God is with men, and he will live
with them. They will be his people, and God
himself will be with them and be their God. He
will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will
be no more death or mourning or crying or pain,
for the old order of things has passed away."

Romans 121-2 Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in
view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as
living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God
this is your spiritual act of worship. Do not
conform any longer to the pattern of this world,
but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.
Then you will be able to test and approve what
God's will is his good, pleasing and perfect
will.
2 Corinthians 317 Now the Lord is the Spirit,
and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is
freedom. And we, who with unveiled faces all
reflect the Lord's glory, are being transformed
into his likeness with ever-increasing glory,
which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.
Romans 815-16 For you did not receive a spirit
that makes you a slave again to fear, but you
received the Spirit of sonship. And by him we
cry, "Abba, Father." The Spirit himself testifies
with our spirit that we are God's children.
