Isaiah 52:1-11

Mk 8:36-37 For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul?

Rm 6:20-21 For when you were slaves of sin, you were free in regard to righteousness.  What fruit did you have then in the things of which you are now ashamed? For the end of those things is death.

 

1 Pt 1:18-19 you were not redeemed with corruptible things, like silver or gold, from your aimless conduct…but with the precious blood of Christ…

 

Rm 10:9-15 if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved...For "whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved. Then comes the dilemma!  " How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher? And how shall they preach unless they are sent? So…As it is written: "How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the gospel of peace, Who bring glad tidings of good things!"

 

Peace!  With God Rm 5:1 having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, from God Phil 4:7 the peace of God…will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.  W/out Jesus you can’t have either.

Good things! 1 Cor 2:9 Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor have entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared for those who love Him.  2 Cor 12:2-4 I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago…was caught up to the third heaven…he was caught up into Paradise and heard inexpressible words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter.

Salvation! Jn 10:28-29 I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand.  My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father's hand.

God reigns! Just like the angel in heaven who cried out.  Rv 11:15  The kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of our Lord and of His Christ, and He shall reign forever and ever!!

 

2 Cor 6:14-18 Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness?...Therefore "Come out from among them and be separate, says the Lord. Do not touch (attach yourself to) what is unclean, and I will receive you.

Rev 18:2-4 Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen…because of fornication.  Many have become  rich through the abundance of her luxury." So, it is very tempting to compromise.  Things hadn’t looked too bad, everyone seemed to be doing just fine…And I heard another voice from heaven saying, "Come out of her, my people, lest you share in her sins, and lest you receive of her plagues.

 

Mt 24:30-31 …and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.  And He will send His angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they will gather together His elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other
