26 “And after the sixty-two weeksMessiah shall be cut off, but not for Himself;And the people of the prince who is to comeShall destroy the city and the sanctuary.The end of it shall be with a flood,And till the end of the war desolations are determined.27 Then he shall confirm a covenant with many for one week;But in the middle of the weekHe...
11 For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men, 12 teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly in the present age, 13 looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Saviour Jesus Christ, 14 who gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from...
8 For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, 9 not of works, lest anyone should boast. Ephesians 2:8-9 According to Paul writing in Ephesians 3.1, we are now in the dispensation of Grace, which means we’re put right with God by the Grace of God through repentance and faith in Jesus the Messiah...

Some people said to me: ‘Well, isn’t there a contradiction? It says they saw the God of Israel but there are also...
And the Lord spoke to you
out of the midst of the fire.
