^{4 Ref} and perseverance, proven character; and proven character, hope:

^{5 Ref} and hope doesn't disappoint us, because God's love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.

^{6 Ref} For while we were yet weak, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly.
