"I will wash my hands in innocence, and so shall I go round about Thy altar, Lord!"
"Blessed are the pure of heart, for they shall see God!"
"Behold the Lamb of God, Who taketh away the sin of the world!"
Gospel of St.John 15:9-15
9 As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love.
10 If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.
11 These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full
.
12 This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.
13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
14 Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you.
15 Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.
Amen.
Glory to Thee, O Lord, glory to Thee!

Revelation 22:1-5- The delights for the redeemed of the Lord: union with God and His Saints, in the heavenly New Jerusalem:
"22 And the angel shewed me the pure river of the water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.
2 In the midst of the path of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.
3 And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him:
4 And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads.
5 And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever."
Amen.
