Better is the end of a thing than the beginning thereof: and the patient in spirit is better than the proud in spirit.
Revelation 2:2I know thy works, and thy labour, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil: and thou hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars:
Revelation 2:3And hast borne, and hast patience, and for my name's sake hast laboured, and hast not fainted.
