“For since our friendship with God was restored by the death of his Son while we were still his enemies... So now we can rejoice in our wonderful new relationship with God because our Lord Jesus Christ has made us friends of God.” Romans 5:10-11 (NLT)

“Just as I have loved you, you should love each other.”
John 13:34 (NLT)

“Wounds from a sincere friend are better than many kisses from an enemy.”  Proverbs 27:6 (NLT)

One day near Horesh, David received the news that Saul was on the way to Ziph to search for him and kill him.  Jonathan went to find David and encouraged him to stay strong in his faith in God.  “Don’t be afraid,” Jonathan reassured him. “My father will never find you! You are going to be the king of Israel, and I will be next to you, as my father, Saul, is well aware.”  So the two of them renewed their solemn pact before the Lord.  2 Samuel 23:15-18 (NLT)

JESUS DIED TO MAKE YOU
A FRIEND OF GOD
