(John 1:12-13) I have said, You are gods; and all of you are children of the most High. (Psalms 82:6) For the Son of man is not come to destroy men's lives, but to save them. (Luke 9:56) both he that sanctifies and they who are sanctified are all of one: for which cause Jesus is not ashamed to call them brethren, saying, I will declare thy name unto my brethren, in the midst of the church I will sing praise unto thee.

(Psalms 18:32) Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God, even our Father, comfort your hearts, and establish you in every good word and work. the Lord is faithful, who shall establish you, and keep you from evil.
