What JESUS accomplished

 

John 8:28

King James Version

28 Then said Jesus unto them, 

When ye have lifted up the Son of man, 

then shall ye know that I am he, 

and that I do nothing of myself; 

but as my Father hath taught me, 

I speak these things.


What has JESUS accomplished, as Emissary for GOD?

Brace yourself, for what you are about to find out.

SPIRIT led us to these verses.

In JESUS' own words, too:

Mark 1:16-18

King James Version

16 Now as he walked by the sea of Galilee, 

he saw Simon and Andrew his brother 

casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers.

17 And Jesus said unto them, 

Come ye after me, 

and I will make you to become fishers of men.

18 And straightway they forsook their nets, 

and followed him.


Mark 1:38

King James Version

38 And he said unto them, 

Let us go into the next towns, 

that I may preach there also: 

for therefore came I forth.


Luke 4:16-21

King James Version

16 And he came to Nazareth, 

where he had been brought up: 

and, as his custom was, 

he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, 

and stood up for to read.

17 And there was delivered unto him 

the book of the prophet Esaias. 

And when he had opened the book, 

he found the place where it was written,

18 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, 

because he hath anointed me 

to preach the gospel to the poor; 

he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, 

to preach deliverance to the captives, 

and recovering of sight to the blind, 

to set at liberty them that are bruised,

19 To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.

20 And he closed the book,

and he gave it again to the minister, and sat down. 

And the eyes of all them that were in the synagogue 

were fastened on him.

21 And he began to say unto them, 

This day is this scripture fulfilled in your ears.


Luke 19:10

King James Version

10 For the Son of man is come 

to seek and to save that which was lost.


John 3:16-17

King James Version

16 For God so loved the world, 

that he gave his only begotten Son, 

that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, 

but have everlasting life.

17 For God sent not his Son into the world 

to condemn the world; 

but that the world through him 

might be saved.


John 8:3-11

King James Version

3 And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him 

a woman taken in adultery; 

and when they had set her in the midst,

4 They say unto him, 

Master, this woman was taken in adultery,

 in the very act.

5 Now Moses in the law commanded us, 

that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou?

6 This they said, tempting him, 

that they might have to accuse him. 

But Jesus stooped down, 

and with his finger wrote on the ground, 

as though he heard them not.

7 So when they continued asking him, 

he lifted up himself, and said unto them, 

He that is without sin among you, 

let him first cast a stone at her.

8 And again he stooped down, 

and wrote on the ground.

9 And they which heard it, 

being convicted by their own conscience, 

went out one by one, 

beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: 

and Jesus was left alone, 

and the woman standing in the midst.

10 When Jesus had lifted up himself, 

and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, 

Woman, where are those thine accusers? 

hath no man condemned thee?

11 She said, No man, Lord. 

And Jesus said unto her, 

Neither do I condemn thee: 

go, and sin no more.


John 8:29

King James Version

29 And he that sent me is with me: 

the Father hath not left me alone; 

for I do always those things that please him.


John 8:38

King James Version

38 I speak that which I have seen with my Father: 

and ye do that which ye have seen with your father.


John 17:2-3

King James Version

2 As thou hast given him power over all flesh, 

that he should give eternal life 

to as many as thou hast given him.

3 And this is life eternal, 

that they might know thee the only true God, 

and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.


John 17:4

King James Version

4 I have glorified thee on the earth: 

I have finished the work 

which thou gavest me to do.


John 17:6

King James Version

6 I have manifested thy name unto the men 

which thou gavest me out of the world: 

thine they were, and thou gavest them me; 

and they have kept thy word.


John 17:7-8

King James Version

7 Now they have known 

that all things whatsoever thou hast given me 

are of thee.

8 For I have given unto them the words 

which thou gavest me; 

and they have received them, 

and have known surely that I came out from thee, 

and they have believed that thou 

didst send me.


John 17:12

King James Version

12 While I was with them in the world, 

I kept them in thy name: 

those that thou gavest me I have kept, 

and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; 

that the scripture might be fulfilled.


John 17:14

King James Version

14 I have given them thy word; 

and the world hath hated them, 

because they are not of the world, 

even as I am not of the world.


John 17:18

King James Version

18 As thou hast sent me into the world, 

even so have I also sent them into the world.


John 17:19

King James Version

19 And for their sakes I sanctify myself, 

that they also might be sanctified 

through the truth.


John 17:22

King James Version

22 And the glory which thou gavest me 

I have given them; that they may be one, 

even as we are one:


John 17:23

King James Version

23 I in them, and thou in me, 

that they may be made perfect in one; 

and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, 

and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.


John 17:26

King James Version

26 And I have declared unto them thy name, 

and will declare it: 

that the love wherewith thou hast loved me 

may be in them, and I in them.


John 19:30

King James Version

30 When Jesus therefore 

had received the vinegar, he said, 

It is finished: 

and he bowed his head, 

and gave up the ghost.


Apostle Paul shares the gospel of JESUS CHRIST:

1 Corinthians 15:3-4

King James Version

3 For I delivered unto you first of all 

that which I also received, 

how that Christ died for our sins 

according to the scriptures;

4 And that he was buried, 

and that he rose again the third day 

according to the scriptures:


He tells us of the BLOOD of CHRIST:

Ephesians 1:7

King James Version

7 In whom we have redemption 

through his blood, 

the forgiveness of sins, 

according to the riches of his grace;


He also tells us about the CROSS:

Hebrews 2:14

King James Version

14 Forasmuch then as the children 

are partakers of flesh and blood, 

he also himself likewise took part of the same; 

that through death he might destroy him 

that had the power of death, 

that is, the devil;


Apostle Peter tells us:

1 Peter 1:18-19

King James Version

18 Forasmuch as ye know 

that ye were not redeemed 

with corruptible things, as silver and gold, 

from your vain conversation received 

by tradition from your fathers;

19 But with the precious blood of Christ, 

as of a lamb without blemish 

and without spot:


1 Peter 3:18

King James Version

18 For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, 

the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, 

being put to death in the flesh, 

but quickened by the Spirit:


More verses on the power of the cross can be read through this article:

"WHY Did JESUS Have to Die?"


Mark, the evangelist, tells us:

Matthew 4:17

King James Version

17 From that time 

Jesus began to preach, 

and to say, 

Repent: 

for the kingdom of heaven 

is at hand.


Mark 1:34

King James Version

34 And he healed many 

that were sick of divers diseases, 

and cast out many devils; 

and suffered not the devils to speak, 

because they knew him.


Mark 1:39

King James Version

39 And he preached in their synagogues 

throughout all Galilee, 

and cast out devils.


Much of the LORD's teachings can be found in Matthew 5, 6, and 7, with the premise:

Matthew 7:28-29

King James Version

28 And it came to pass, 

when Jesus had ended these sayings, 

the people were astonished at his doctrine:

29 For he taught them as one having authority, 

and not as the scribes.


Lastly, apostle John finishes with:

John 21:25

King James Version

25 And there are also many other things 

which Jesus did, the which, 

if they should be written every one, 

I suppose that even the world itself 

could not contain the books 

that should be written. 

Amen.

JESUS as EMISSARY


 John 8:14

King James Version

14 Jesus answered and said unto them, 

Though I bear record of myself, 

yet my record is true: 

for I know whence I came, and whither I go; 

but ye cannot tell whence I come, 

and whither I go.


JESUS is GOD's Emissary.

Emissary is like a diplomat, a representative, a messenger.

Someone who is sent, in behalf of another.

My delight is in giving you proof.

First, the post, and verse that inspired this 98th blog:

Mark 12:6

King James Version

6 Having yet therefore one son, 

his wellbeloved, 

he sent him also last unto them, 

saying, 

They will reverence my son.


Secondly?

JESUS was sent by GOD.

These verses, in JESUS' own words, attest to it:

John 8:15-16

King James Version

15 Ye judge after the flesh; I judge no man.

16 And yet if I judge, my judgment is true: 

for I am not alone, 

but I and the Father that sent me.


John 8:17-18

King James Version

17 It is also written in your law, 

that the testimony of two men is true.

18 I am one that bear witness of myself, 

and the Father that sent me 

beareth witness of me.


John 8:26-27

King James Version

26 I have many things to say 

and to judge of you: 

but he that sent me is true; 

and I speak to the world those things 

which I have heard of him.

27 They understood not 

that he spake to them of the Father.


John 8:29-30

King James Version

29 And he that sent me is with me: 

the Father hath not left me alone; 

for I do always those things that please him.

30 As he spake these words, 

many believed on him.


John 8:42

King James Version

42 Jesus said unto them, 

If God were your Father, ye would love me: 

for I proceeded forth and came from God; 

neither came I of myself, but he sent me.


John 17:3

King James Version

3 And this is life eternal, 

that they might know thee the only true God, 

and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.


John 17:8

King James Version

8 For I have given unto them the words 

which thou gavest me; 

and they have received them, 

and have known surely that I came out from thee, 

and they have believed that thou 

didst send me.


John 17:18

King James Version

18 As thou hast sent me into the world, 

even so have I also sent them into the world.


John 17:20-21

King James Version

20 Neither pray I for these alone, 

but for them also which shall believe on me 

through their word;

21 That they all may be one; 

as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, 

that they also may be one in us: 

that the world may believe 

that thou hast sent me.


John 17:22-23

King James Version

22 And the glory which thou gavest me 

I have given them; 

that they may be one, even as we are one:

23 I in them, and thou in me, 

that they may be made perfect in one; 

and that the world may know 

that thou hast sent me, 

and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.


John 17:25-26

King James Version

25 O righteous Father, 

the world hath not known thee: 

but I have known thee, 

and these have known that thou hast sent me.

26 And I have declared unto them thy name, 

and will declare it: 

that the love wherewith thou hast loved me 

may be in them, and I in them.


Do you believe these to be true?

If so, you are of GOD:

John 8:47

King James Version

47 He that is of God heareth God's words: 

ye therefore hear them not, 

because ye are not of God.


And you are of the LORD's sheep:

John 10:27-28

King James Version

27 My sheep hear my voice, 

and I know them, and they follow me:

28 And I give unto them eternal life; 

and they shall never perish, 

neither shall any man pluck them 

out of my hand.


The next post tells us the danger, and difficulties of being Emissary.

SPIRIT and the EMISSARY

 

Matthew 3:16-17

King James Version

16 And Jesus, when he was baptized, 

went up straightway out of the water: 

and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, 

and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, 

and lighting upon him:

17 And lo a voice from heaven, 

saying, 

This is my beloved Son, 

in whom I am well pleased.


Do you know the relation with GOD, SPIRIT, and JESUS?

Had GOD not made me born again, I wouldn't have understood Scripture.

The LORD's SPIRIT makes things plain for me.

He helps me connect the dots.

He helps me understand the Triune GOD --

GOD, the Father.

GOD, the Son.

GOD, the Holy Spirit.

All one GOD.


JESUS explains what the HOLY SPIRIT does:

John 14:16-17

King James Version

16 And I will pray the Father, 

and he shall give you another Comforter, 

that he may abide with you for ever;

17 Even the Spirit of truth; 

whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, 

neither knoweth him: but ye know him; 

for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.


John 14:26

King James Version

26 But the Comforter, 

which is the Holy Ghost, 

whom the Father will send in my name, 

he shall teach you all things, 

and bring all things to your remembrance, 

whatsoever I have said unto you.


John 15:26

King James Version

26 But when the Comforter is come, 

whom I will send unto you from the Father,

 even the Spirit of truth, 

which proceedeth from the Father, 

he shall testify of me:


John 16:7

King James Version

7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth; 

It is expedient for you that I go away: 

for if I go not away, the Comforter 

will not come unto you; 

but if I depart, I will send him unto you.


John 16:8-12

King James Version

8 And when he is come, 

he will reprove the world of sin, 

and of righteousness, 

and of judgment:

9 Of sin, because they believe not on me;

10 Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, 

and ye see me no more;

11 Of judgment, 

because the prince of this world is judged.

12 I have yet many things to say unto you, 

but ye cannot bear them now.


John 16:13

King James Version

13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, 

he will guide you into all truth: 

for he shall not speak of himself; 

but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: 

and he will shew you things to come.


John 16:14-15

King James Version

14 He shall glorify me: 

for he shall receive of mine, 

and shall shew it unto you.

15 All things that the Father hath are mine: 

therefore said I, that he shall take of mine, 

and shall shew it unto you.


When JESUS was taken up to heaven, after His resurrection, He left His apostles the HOLY SPIRIT.

GOD's SPIRIT is teacher of all things, reminds us of JESUS' teachings, and reproves the world of sin.

Just like with JESUS, whatever SPIRIT hears from the FATHER, He tells us.

He will also show us things to come.

In these chaotic days, we need SPIRIT.

Without SPIRIT, we'd all be lost.

With SPIRIT, we are always with JESUS.

Thanks to the FATHER!

The PROPHESIED emissary

 

2 Peter 1:16

King James Version

16 For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, 

when we made known unto you 

the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, 

but were eyewitnesses of his majesty.


The Bible is GOD's story.

How He created, loved, forgave.

And how man lived, sinned, forgot, and sinned some more.

That's why JESUS, the LAST emissary, was sent.

As emissary, He is GOD's representative.

To remind us of GOD's commands.

The LAST resort, when Satan tries to keep foiling GOD's plans.

The LAST messenger, that we may finally take heed.

The LAST hope, that all hope may not be lost.


JESUS, the Messiah, died on the cross for our sins.

He was resurrected on the third day.

And yet, many refuse to acknowledge He is the Messiah.

Who has come, saved, and will come again.

Here are the Old Testament prophecies on JESUS:

Genesis 3:14-15

King James Version

14 And the Lord God said unto the serpent, 

Because thou hast done this, 

thou art cursed above all cattle, 

and above every beast of the field; 

upon thy belly shalt thou go, 

and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life:

15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, 

and between thy seed and her seed; 

it shall bruise thy head, 

and thou shalt bruise his heel.


Deuteronomy 18:15

King James Version

15 The Lord thy God will raise up unto thee 

a Prophet from the midst of thee, 

of thy brethren, like unto me; 

unto him ye shall hearken;


Psalm 2

King James Version

2 Why do the heathen rage, 

and the people imagine a vain thing?

2 The kings of the earth set themselves, 

and the rulers take counsel together, 

against the Lord, 

and against his anointed, 

saying,

3 Let us break their bands asunder, 

and cast away their cords from us.

4 He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: 

the Lord shall have them in derision.

5 Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, 

and vex them in his sore displeasure.

6 Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion.

7 I will declare the decree: 

the Lord hath said unto me, 

Thou art my Son; 

this day have I begotten thee.

8 Ask of me, 

and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, 

and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.

9 Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; 

thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel.

10 Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: 

be instructed, ye judges of the earth.

11 Serve the Lord with fear, 

and rejoice with trembling.

12 Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, 

and ye perish from the way, 

when his wrath is kindled but a little. 

Blessed are all they that put their trust in him.


Psalm 16:10

King James Version

10 For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; 

neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One 

to see corruption.


Psalm 22:1-2

King James Version

22 My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? 

why art thou so far from helping me, 

and from the words of my roaring?

2 O my God, 

I cry in the day time, but thou hearest not; 

and in the night season, and am not silent.


Psalm 22:6-8

King James Version

6 But I am a worm, and no man; 

a reproach of men, and despised of the people.

7 All they that see me laugh me to scorn: 

they shoot out the lip, they shake the head, 

saying,

8 He trusted on the Lord that he would deliver him: 

let him deliver him, seeing he delighted in him.


Psalm 22:12-13

King James Version

12 Many bulls have compassed me: 

strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round.

13 They gaped upon me with their mouths, 

as a ravening and a roaring lion.


Psalm 22:14-16

King James Version

14 I am poured out like water, 

and all my bones are out of joint: 

my heart is like wax; 

it is melted in the midst of my bowels.

15 My strength is dried up like a potsherd; 

and my tongue cleaveth to my jaws; 

and thou hast brought me into the dust of death.

16 For dogs have compassed me: 

the assembly of the wicked have inclosed me: 

they pierced my hands and my feet.


Psalm 22:17-19

King James Version

17 I may tell all my bones: 

they look and stare upon me.

18 They part my garments among them, 

and cast lots upon my vesture.

19 But be not thou far from me, O Lord: 

O my strength, 

haste thee to help me.


Psalm 22:24

King James Version

24 For he hath not despised nor abhorred 

the affliction of the afflicted; 

neither hath he hid his face from him; 

but when he cried unto him, he heard.


Psalm 34:20

King James Version

20 He keepeth all his bones: 

not one of them is broken.


Psalm 69:19-21

King James Version

19 Thou hast known my reproach, 

and my shame, and my dishonour: 

mine adversaries are all before thee.

20 Reproach hath broken my heart; 

and I am full of heaviness: 

and I looked for some to take pity, 

but there was none; 

and for comforters, but I found none.

21 They gave me also gall for my meat; 

and in my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.


Isaiah 7:14-16

King James Version

14 Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; 

Behold, a virgin shall conceive, 

and bear a son, 

and shall call his name Immanuel.

15 Butter and honey shall he eat, 

that he may know to refuse the evil, 

and choose the good.

16 For before the child shall know to refuse the evil, 

and choose the good, 

the land that thou abhorrest 

shall be forsaken of both her kings.


Isaiah 9:2

King James Version

2 The people that walked in darkness 

have seen a great light: 

they that dwell in the land of the shadow of death, 

upon them hath the light shined.


Isaiah 9:6-7

King James Version

6 For unto us a child is born, 

unto us a son is given: 

and the government shall be upon his shoulder: 

and his name shall be called Wonderful, 

Counsellor, 

The mighty God, 

The everlasting Father, 

The Prince of Peace.

7 Of the increase of his government and peace 

there shall be no end, 

upon the throne of David, 

and upon his kingdom, 

to order it, and to establish it 

with judgment and with justice 

from henceforth even for ever. 

The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this.


Isaiah 11:1-6

King James Version

11 And there shall come forth a rod 

out of the stem of Jesse, 

and a Branch shall grow out of his roots:

2 And the spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him, 

the spirit of wisdom and understanding, 

the spirit of counsel and might, 

the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord;

3 And shall make him of quick understanding 

in the fear of the Lord: 

and he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, 

neither reprove after the hearing of his ears:

4 But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, 

and reprove with equity for the meek of the earth: 

and he shall smite the earth: 

with the rod of his mouth, 

and with the breath of his lips 

shall he slay the wicked.

5 And righteousness shall be the girdle of his loins, 

and faithfulness the girdle of his reins.

6 The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, 

and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; 

and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; 

and a little child shall lead them.


Isaiah 11:10-12

King James Version

10 And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, 

which shall stand for an ensign of the people; 

to it shall the Gentiles seek: 

and his rest shall be glorious.

11 And it shall come to pass in that day, 

that the Lord shall set his hand again the second time 

to recover the remnant of his people, 

which shall be left, 

from Assyria, and from Egypt, 

and from Pathros, and from Cush, 

and from Elam, and from Shinar, 

and from Hamath, and from the islands of the sea.

12 And he shall set up an ensign for the nations, 

and shall assemble the outcasts of Israel, 

and gather together the dispersed of Judah 

from the four corners of the earth.


Isaiah 28:14-18

King James Version

14 Wherefore hear the word of the Lord, 

ye scornful men, 

that rule this people which is in Jerusalem.

15 Because ye have said, 

We have made a covenant with death,

 and with hell are we at agreement; 

when the overflowing scourge shall pass through,

it shall not come unto us: 

for we have made lies our refuge, 

and under falsehood have we hid ourselves:

16 Therefore thus saith the Lord God, 

Behold, 

I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, 

a tried stone, 

a precious corner stone, 

a sure foundation: 

he that believeth shall not make haste.

17 Judgment also will I lay to the line, 

and righteousness to the plummet: 

and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, 

and the waters shall overflow the hiding place.

18 And your covenant with death 

shall be disannulled, 

and your agreement with hell shall not stand; 

when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, 

then ye shall be trodden down by it.


Isaiah 53

King James Version

53 Who hath believed our report? 

and to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed?

2 For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, 

and as a root out of a dry ground: 

he hath no form nor comeliness; 

and when we shall see him, t

here is no beauty that we should desire him.

3 He is despised and rejected of men; 

a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: 

and we hid as it were our faces from him; 

he was despised, and we esteemed him not.

4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, 

and carried our sorrows: 

yet we did esteem him stricken, 

smitten of God, and afflicted.

5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, 

he was bruised for our iniquities: 

the chastisement of our peace was upon him; 

and with his stripes we are healed.

6 All we like sheep have gone astray; 

we have turned every one to his own way; 

and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.

7 He was oppressed, 

and he was afflicted, 

yet he opened not his mouth: 

he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, 

and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, 

so he openeth not his mouth.

8 He was taken from prison and from judgment: 

and who shall declare his generation? 

for he was cut off out of the land of the living: 

for the transgression of my people was he stricken.

9 And he made his grave with the wicked,

and with the rich in his death; 

because he had done no violence, 

neither was any deceit in his mouth.

10 Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise him; 

he hath put him to grief: 

when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin,

 he shall see his seed, 

he shall prolong his days, 

and the pleasure of the Lord 

shall prosper in his hand.

11 He shall see of the travail of his soul, 

and shall be satisfied: 

by his knowledge 

shall my righteous servant justify many; 

for he shall bear their iniquities.

12 Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, 

and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; 

because he hath poured out his soul unto death: 

and he was numbered with the transgressors; 

and he bare the sin of many, 

and made intercession for the transgressors.


Isaiah 61:1-3

King James Version

61 The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me; 

because the Lord hath anointed me 

to preach good tidings unto the meek; 

he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, 

to proclaim liberty to the captives, 

and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;

2 To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, 

and the day of vengeance of our God; 

to comfort all that mourn;

3 To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, 

to give unto them beauty for ashes, 

the oil of joy for mourning, 

the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; 

that they might be called trees of righteousness, 

the planting of the Lord, 

that he might be glorified.


Jeremiah 31:16-17

King James Version

16 Thus saith the Lord; 

Refrain thy voice from weeping, 

and thine eyes from tears: 

for thy work shall be rewarded, saith the Lord; 

and they shall come again 

from the land of the enemy.

17 And there is hope in thine end, saith the Lord, 

that thy children shall come again 

to their own border.


Ezekiel 37:21-22

King James Version

21 And say unto them, 

Thus saith the Lord God; 

Behold, 

 will take the children of Israel 

from among the heathen, 

whither they be gone, 

and will gather them on every side, 

and bring them into their own land:

22 And I will make them one nation 

in the land upon the mountains of Israel; 

and one king shall be king to them all: 

and they shall be no more two nations, 

neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms 

any more at all.


Ezekiel 37:26-28

King James Version

26 Moreover I will make 

a covenant of peace with them; 

it shall be an everlasting covenant with them: 

and I will place them, and multiply them, 

and will set my sanctuary 

in the midst of them for evermore.

27 My tabernacle also shall be with them: 

yea, I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

28 And the heathen shall know that I the Lord

 do sanctify Israel, 

when my sanctuary shall be 

in the midst of them for evermore.


Daniel 9:24-26

King James Version

24 Seventy weeks are determined 

upon thy people and upon thy holy city, 

to finish the transgression, 

and to make an end of sins, 

and to make reconciliation for iniquity, 

and to bring in everlasting righteousness, 

and to seal up the vision and prophecy, 

and to anoint the most Holy.

25 Know therefore and understand, 

that from the going forth of the commandment 

to restore and to build Jerusalem 

unto the Messiah the Prince 

shall be seven weeks, 

and threescore and two weeks: 

the street shall be built again, 

and the wall, 

even in troublous times.

26 And after threescore and two weeks 

shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: 

and the people of the prince that shall come 

shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; 

and the end thereof shall be with a flood, 

and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.


Micah 5:2-5

King James Version

2 But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, 

though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, 

yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me 

that is to be ruler in Israel; 

whose goings forth have been from of old, 

from everlasting.

3 Therefore will he give them up, 

until the time that she which travaileth 

hath brought forth: 

then the remnant of his brethren 

shall return unto the children of Israel.

4 And he shall stand and feed 

in the strength of the Lord, 

in the majesty of the name of the Lord his God; 

and they shall abide: 

for now shall he be great unto the ends of the earth.

5 And this man shall be the peace, 

when the Assyrian shall come into our land: 

and when he shall tread in our palaces, 

then shall we raise against him seven shepherds, 

and eight principal men.


Zechariah 9:9

King James Version

9 Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; 

shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: 

behold, 

thy King cometh unto thee: 

he is just, 

and having salvation; 

lowly, and riding upon an ass, 

and upon a colt the foal of an ass.


Zechariah 12:10-14

King James Version

10 And I will pour upon the house of David, 

and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, 

the spirit of grace and of supplications: 

and they shall look upon me 

whom they have pierced, 

and they shall mourn for him, 

as one mourneth for his only son, 

and shall be in bitterness for him, 

as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn.

11 In that day 

shall there be a great mourning in Jerusalem, 

as the mourning of Hadadrimmon 

in the valley of Megiddon.

12 And the land shall mourn, every family apart; 

the family of the house of David apart, 

and their wives apart; 

the family of the house of Nathan apart, 

and their wives apart;

13 The family of the house of Levi apart, 

and their wives apart; 

the family of Shimei apart, 

and their wives apart;

14 All the families that remain, 

every family apart, 

and their wives apart.


Malachi 3:1

King James Version

3 Behold, 

I will send my messenger, 

and he shall prepare the way before me: 

and the Lord, whom ye seek, 

shall suddenly come to his temple, 

even the messenger of the covenant, 

whom ye delight in: 

behold, 

he shall come, 

saith the Lord of hosts.
