What is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away. —Jas. 4:14.
My days are swifter than a post: they flee away, they see no good. They are passed away as the swift ships: as the eagle that hasteth to the prey. —Thou carriest them away as with a flood; they are as a sleep . . . in the morning they are like grass which groweth up. In the morning it flourisheth, and groweth up: in the evening it is cut down, and withereth. —Man that is born of a woman is of few days, and full of trouble. He cometh forth like a flower, and is cut down.
The world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever. —They shall perish, but thou shalt endure: yea, all of them shall wax old like a garment; as a vesture shalt thou change them, and they shall be changed: but thou art the same, and thy years shall have no end. —Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, and today, and forever.
Job 9:25,26. -Psa. 90:5,6. -Job 14:2. I John 2:17. -Psa. 102:26,27. -Heb. 13:8.

Appeared: The Kindness and Love of God
The kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared. —Tit. 3:4.
I have loved thee with an everlasting love.
In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him. Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.
When the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law, to redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons. —The Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father full of grace and truth. —Great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh.
As the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil.
Jer. 31:3. I John 4:9,10. Gal. 4:4,5. -John 1:14. -I Tim. 3:16. Heb. 2:14.
