Opening Scriptures before the Message
Isaiah 55:11 so My word that comes from My mouth will not return to Me empty, but it will accomplish what I please and will prosper in what I send it to do.
2 Timothy 3:16-17 All Scripture is inspired by God and is profitable for teaching, for rebuking, for correcting. for training in righteousness,
so that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.
2 Peter 1:19-21 So we have the prophetic word strongly confirmed. You will do well to pay attention to it, as to a lamp shing in a dismal place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts.
First of all, you should know this: No prophecy of Scripture comes from one's own interpretation,
because no prophecy ever came by the will of man; instead, men spoke from God as they were moved by the Holy Spirit.
How to hear and understand the Gospel
The LORD Speaks
Job 38:1-3 Then the LORD answered Job from the whirlwind. He said:
Who is this who obscures My counsel with ignorant words?
Get ready to answer Me like a man; when I question you, you will inform Me.
Job 40:6-7 Then the LORD answered Job from the whirlwind:
Get ready to answer Me like a man; When I question you, you will inform Me.
Job 42:4-7 You said, "Listen now, and I will speak. When I question you, you will inform Me."
I had heard rumors about You, but now my eyes have seen You.
Therefore I take back my words and repent in dust and ashes.
After the LORD had finished speaking to Job, He said to Eliphaz the Temanite" "I am angry with you and your two friends, for you have not spoken the truth about Me, as My servant Job has.
Israel Rejection of the Message
Romans 10:14-17 But how can they call on Him they have not believed in? And how can they believe without hearing about Him? And how can they hear without a preacher?
And how can they preach unless they are sent? As it is written: How beautiful are the feet of those who announce the gospel of good things!
But all did not obey the gospel. For Isaiah says, Lord, who has believed our message?
So faith comes from what is heard, and what is heard comes through the message about Christ.
Acts 26:17-18 I will rescue you from the people and from the Gentiles. I now send you to them
to open their eyes so they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, that by faith in Me they may receive forgiveness of sins and a share among those who are 'sanctified.'
Romans 15:4-7 For whatever was written in the past was written for our instruction, so that we may have hope through endurance and through the encouragement from the Scriptures.
Now may the God who gives endurance and encouragement allow you to live in harmony with one another, according to the command of Christ Jesus,
so that you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ with a united mind and voice.
Glorifying God Together
Therefore accept one another, just as the Messiah also accepted you, to the glory of God.
