Jesus answered and said to him, Truly, truly, I say to you, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost.
For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man sees, why does he yet hope for?
Jesus said to him, Thomas, because you have seen me, you have believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.
Turn us again, O LORD God of hosts, cause your face to shine; and we shall be saved.
