Patience and Endurance

Jeremiah 12:5 If thou hast run with the footmen, and they have 
wearied thee, then how canst thou contend with horses? and if in 
the land of peace, wherein thou trustest, they wearied thee. then 
how wilt thou do in the swelling of Jordan? 
 
Luke 8:14,15 And that which fell among thorns are they, which, 
when they have heard go forth, and are choked with cares and 
riches and pleasures of this life, and bring no fruit to 
perfection.

heart, having heard the word, keep it, and bring forth fruit with 
patience.

abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.
 
Romans 8:25 But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with 
patience wait for it.
 
Romnans 8:35,36,37 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? 
Shall tribulation or distress, or persecution, or famine, or 
nakedness, or peril, or sword?
 
As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we 
are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.
 
Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him 
that loved us.
 
Romans 8:38,39 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, 
nor angels, nor pincipalities, nor powers, nor things present, 
nor things to come,
 
or height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to 
separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our 
Lord.

ministry be not blamed: But in all things approving ourselves as 
the ministers of God, in much patience, in afflictions, in

tumults, in labours, in watchings, in fastings;

I Thessalonians 1:3 Remembering without ceasing your work of 
faith, and labour of love, and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus 
Christ, in the sight of God and our Father;
 
I Thessalonians 3:5 For verily, when we were with you, we told 
you before that we should suffer tribulation; even as it came to 
pass, and ye know. 

I Thessalonians 5:14,15 Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them

patient toward all men.

See that none render evil for evil unto any man; but ever
follow that which is good, both among yourselves, and to
all men.

draw back, my soul no pleasure in him.
 
Hebrews 12:1,2,3 Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about 
with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every 
weight, and the sin which doth so easily  beset us, and let us 
run with patience the race that is set before us,
 
Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith, who for 
the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the 
shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
 
For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners 
against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds.
 
James 1:3,4 Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh 
patience.

But let patience have her perfect work that ye may be perfect 
and entire, wanting nothing.
 
James 5:7,8 Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the coming of 
the Lord.  Behold, the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit

Be ye also patient; stablish your hearts, for the coming of the 
Lord draweth nigh.

the name of the Lord, for an example of suffering affliction,

Lord; that the Lord is very pitiful, and of tender mercy.
 
II Peter 1:5,6,7 And beside this, giving all diligence, and 
to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge;
 
And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and 
to patience godliness;
 
And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness 
charity.

I Peter 2:20,21,22 For what glory is it, if, when ye be buffeted 
for your faults, ye shall take it patiently? but if, when ye do
well, and suffer for it, ye take it patiently, this is acceptable
with God.

For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered 
for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps:

Who did no sin, neither was guile found in His mouth:

I Peter 2:23,24 Who, when He was revile, reviled not again; when
He suffered, He threatened not; but committed Himself to Him
that judgeth righteously:

Who his own self bare our sins in His own body on the tree,
that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness:
by whose stripes ye were healed.

But ye are as sheep going astray; but ye are not returned 
unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls.

I Peter 3:14 But if ye suffer for righteousness' sake,
happy are ye: and be not afraid of their terror, neither
be troubled;

I Peter 3:17 For it is better, if the will of God be so,
that ye suffer for well-doing, than for evil-doing.
