To Be Determined

Uncategorized Scripture

:

Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house, and test me now in this,” says Yahweh of Armies, “if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough for.

:

I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast its fruit before its time in the field,” says Yahweh of Armies.

:

“All nations shall call you blessed, for you will be a delightful land,” says Yahweh of Armies.

:

“Your words have been stout against me,” says Yahweh. “Yet you say, ‘What have we spoken against you?’

:

You have said, ‘It is vain to serve God;’ and ‘What profit is it that we have followed his instructions, and that we have walked mournfully before Yahweh of Armies?

:

Now we call the proud happy; yes, those who work wickedness are built up; yes, they tempt God, and escape.’

:

Then those who feared Yahweh spoke one with another; and Yahweh listened, and heard, and a book of memory was written before him, for those who feared Yahweh, and who honored his name.

:

They shall be mine,” says Yahweh of Armies, “my own possession in the day that I make, and I will spare them, as a man spares his own son who serves him.

:

Then you shall return and discern between the righteous and the wicked, between him who serves God and him who doesn’t serve him.

:

“For, behold, the day comes, it burns as a furnace; and all the proud, and all who work wickedness, will be stubble; and the day that comes will burn them up,” says Yahweh of Armies, “that it shall leave them neither root nor branch.

:

But to you who fear my name shall the sun of righteousness arise with healing in its wings. You will go out, and leap like calves of the stall.

:

You shall tread down the wicked; for they will be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I make,” says Yahweh of Armies.

:

“Remember the law of Moses my servant, which I commanded to him in Horeb for all Israel, even statutes and ordinances.

:

Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the great and terrible day of Yahweh comes.

:

He will turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers, lest I come and strike the earth with a curse.”

:

The book of the genealogy of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.

:

Abraham became the father of Isaac. Isaac became the father of Jacob. Jacob became the father of Judah and his brothers.

:

Judah became the father of Perez and Zerah by Tamar. Perez became the father of Hezron. Hezron became the father of Ram.

:

Ram became the father of Amminadab. Amminadab became the father of Nahshon. Nahshon became the father of Salmon.

:

Salmon became the father of Boaz by Rahab. Boaz became the father of Obed by Ruth. Obed became the father of Jesse.

:

Jesse became the father of King David. David became the father of Solomon by her who had been the wife of Uriah.

:

Solomon became the father of Rehoboam. Rehoboam became the father of Abijah. Abijah became the father of Asa.

:

Asa became the father of Jehoshaphat. Jehoshaphat became the father of Joram. Joram became the father of Uzziah.

:

Uzziah became the father of Jotham. Jotham became the father of Ahaz. Ahaz became the father of Hezekiah.

:

Hezekiah became the father of Manasseh. Manasseh became the father of Amon. Amon became the father of Josiah.

:

Josiah became the father of Jechoniah and his brothers, at the time of the exile to Babylon.

:

After the exile to Babylon, Jechoniah became the father of Shealtiel. Shealtiel became the father of Zerubbabel.

:

Zerubbabel became the father of Abiud. Abiud became the father of Eliakim. Eliakim became the father of Azor.

:

Azor became the father of Sadoc. Sadoc became the father of Achim. Achim became the father of Eliud.

:

Eliud became the father of Eleazar. Eleazar became the father of Matthan. Matthan became the father of Jacob.

:

Jacob became the father of Joseph, the husband of Mary, from whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.

:

So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; from David to the exile to Babylon fourteen generations; and from the carrying away to Babylon to the Christ, fourteen generations.

:

Now the birth of Jesus Christ was like this; for after his mother, Mary, was engaged to Joseph, before they came together, she was found pregnant by the Holy Spirit.

:

Joseph, her husband, being a righteous man, and not willing to make her a public example, intended to put her away secretly.

:

But when he thought about these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, don’t be afraid to take to yourself Mary, your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit.

:

She shall bring forth a son. You shall call his name Jesus, for it is he who shall save his people from their sins.”

:

Now all this has happened, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying,

:

“Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son. They shall call his name Immanuel;” which is, being interpreted, “God with us.”

:

Joseph arose from his sleep, and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took his wife to himself;

:

and didn’t know her sexually until she had brought forth her firstborn son. He named him Jesus.

:

Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of King Herod, behold, wise men from the east came to Jerusalem, saying,

:

“Where is he who is born King of the Jews? For we saw his star in the east, and have come to worship him.”

:

When King Herod heard it, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.

:

Gathering together all the chief priests and scribes of the people, he asked them where the Christ would be born.

:

They said to him, “In Bethlehem of Judea, for this is written through the prophet,

:

You Bethlehem, land of Judah, are in no way least among the princes of Judah: for out of you shall come forth a governor, who shall shepherd my people, Israel.’”

:

Then Herod secretly called the wise men, and learned from them exactly what time the star appeared.

:

He sent them to Bethlehem, and said, “Go and search diligently for the young child. When you have found him, bring me word, so that I also may come and worship him.”

:

They, having heard the king, went their way; and behold, the star, which they saw in the east, went before them, until it came and stood over where the young child was.

:

When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceedingly great joy.

:

They came into the house and saw the young child with Mary, his mother, and they fell down and worshiped him. Opening their treasures, they offered to him gifts: gold, frankincense, and myrrh.

:

Being warned in a dream that they shouldn’t return to Herod, they went back to their own country another way.

:

Now when they had departed, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream, saying, “Arise and take the young child and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and stay there until I tell you, for Herod will seek the young child to destroy him.”

:

He arose and took the young child and his mother by night, and departed into Egypt,

:

and was there until the death of Herod; that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying, “Out of Egypt I called my son.”

:

Then Herod, when he saw that he was mocked by the wise men, was exceedingly angry, and sent out, and killed all the male children who were in Bethlehem and in all the surrounding countryside, from two years old and under, according to the exact time which he had learned from the wise men.

:

Then that which was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet was fulfilled, saying,

:

“A voice was heard in Ramah, lamentation, weeping and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children; she wouldn’t be comforted, because they are no more.”

:

But when Herod was dead, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt, saying,

:

“Arise and take the young child and his mother, and go into the land of Israel, for those who sought the young child’s life are dead.”

:

He arose and took the young child and his mother, and came into the land of Israel.

:

But when he heard that Archelaus was reigning over Judea in the place of his father, Herod, he was afraid to go there. Being warned in a dream, he withdrew into the region of Galilee,

:

and came and lived in a city called Nazareth; that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophets: “He will be called a Nazarene.”

:

In those days, John the Baptizer came, preaching in the wilderness of Judea, saying,

:

“Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!”

:

For this is he who was spoken of by Isaiah the prophet, saying, “The voice of one crying in the wilderness, make ready the way of the Lord. Make his paths straight.”

:

Now John himself wore clothing made of camel’s hair, with a leather belt around his waist. His food was locusts and wild honey.

:

Then people from Jerusalem, all of Judea, and all the region around the Jordan went out to him.

:

They were baptized by him in the Jordan, confessing their sins.

:

But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming for his baptism, he said to them, “You offspring of vipers, who warned you to flee from the wrath to come?

:

Therefore bring forth fruit worthy of repentance!

:

Don’t think to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham for our father,’ for I tell you that God is able to raise up children to Abraham from these stones.

:

“Even now the axe lies at the root of the trees. Therefore, every tree that doesn’t bring forth good fruit is cut down, and cast into the fire.

:

I indeed baptize you in water for repentance, but he who comes after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to carry. He will baptize you in the Holy Spirit.

:

His winnowing fork is in his hand, and he will thoroughly cleanse his threshing floor. He will gather his wheat into the barn, but the chaff he will burn up with unquenchable fire.”

:

Then Jesus came from Galilee to the Jordan to John, to be baptized by him.

:

But John would have hindered him, saying, “I need to be baptized by you, and you come to me?”

:

But Jesus, answering, said to him, “Allow it now, for this is the fitting way for us to fulfill all righteousness.” Then he allowed him.

:

Jesus, when he was baptized, went up directly from the water: and behold, the heavens were opened to him. He saw the Spirit of God descending as a dove, and coming on him.

:

Behold, a voice out of the heavens said, “This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased.”

:

Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.

:

When he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was hungry afterward.

:

The tempter came and said to him, “If you are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread.”

:

But he answered, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God.’”

:

Then the devil took him into the holy city. He set him on the pinnacle of the temple,

:

and said to him, “If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, for it is written, ‘He will put his angels in charge of you.’ and, ‘On their hands they will bear you up, so that you don’t dash your foot against a stone.’”

:

Jesus said to him, “Again, it is written, ‘You shall not test the Lord, your God.’”

:

Again, the devil took him to an exceedingly high mountain, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world, and their glory.

:

He said to him, “I will give you all of these things, if you will fall down and worship me.”

:

Then Jesus said to him, “Get behind me, Satan! For it is written, ‘You shall worship the Lord your God, and you shall serve him only.’”

:

Then the devil left him, and behold, angels came and served him.

:

Now when Jesus heard that John was delivered up, he withdrew into Galilee.

:

Leaving Nazareth, he came and lived in Capernaum, which is by the sea, in the region of Zebulun and Naphtali,

:

that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying,

:

“The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, toward the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles,

:

the people who sat in darkness saw a great light, to those who sat in the region and shadow of death, to them light has dawned.”

:

From that time, Jesus began to preach, and to say, “Repent! For the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand.”

:

Walking by the sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers: Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew, his brother, casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen.

:

He said to them, “Come after me, and I will make you fishers for men.”

:

They immediately left their nets and followed him.
