The COVID-19 Pandemic(Corona Virus Pestilence) Viewed in the Context of the Bible
(As a Christian, I’m telling you what is in the Bible according to the teachings of God.)
Jehovah God made and preserves this
world and its inhabitants, and He rules this world with fair reward and
punishment according to His laws written in the Bible.
The typical punishments God sends include ‘pestilence,
war, famine, and harm caused by animals.
There are no
coincidences in this world, and every effect has a cause.
The
rise and fall of the nations as discussed in the Bible and the rise and fall of
the nations we learn in school have quite
different perspectives.
The
laws of the Bible are broadly divided into the ‘to love God and love thy neighbor.
When there are excessive
problems with this ‘to love God and love thy
neighbor’, God punishes nations or people with ‘plague,
war, famine, and harm caused by animals.
As a result, some nations disappear or they
become enslaved(colonized). (Well-known
examples include the Incan
civilization, Angkor Wat, and Pompeii as well as the destruction of Canaan and
Sodom and Gomorrah, as described in the Bible, etc.).
These
punishments are the same for nations and individuals.
It is impossible
for human beings to understand God’s long suffering, which is one of His personality traits. Therefore,
when God punishes people with ‘pestilence, war,
famine, and harm caused by animals, people must repent of their wrongdoing. If we do not
repent of our wrongdoing, God's people(true Christians) will continue to
receive seven times more severe punishment.
If God gives a deadly disease
to a person, even if it is only a cold, that person has no choice and will die.
If it is not a deadly disease, then that cold must persist for a certain period
of time. The types of
diseases God gives to man are infinite.
God teaches us this
information through experiences using contents from the Bible and spirits that
are invisible to human eyes. We ultimately come to believe even those contents
of the Bible that we do not personally experience.
As an example, let us take the history of the
Republic of Korea. We are aware of the 36-year colonial rule of Japan, as well
as the Korean War that broke out on June
25th, 1950.
Ever since I came to know God by His grace, I have always wondered
what Korea did wrong to deserve such a terrible discipline as the war between the
same nation, between South Korea and North Korea, right after the oppression of
Japan.
Every time I heard stories about the sex slaves(comfort women) for
Japanese soldiers, I became furious and disgraced as their descendant.
Only recently did I figure out the reason for these events.
It was a system of slavery operated during the Joseon Dynasty run by
Yi family.
This system of slavery lasted
for 600 years during the Joseon Dynasty. This system of enslaving more than 50
% of their own people was unprecedented in the world history.
I wondered why this historical event, which should never happen
again, is not taught in schools.
It was because I
thought that schools must teach the truth not to repeat the same tragedy.
I became concerned that this
part of history is not taught for the same reasons why Japan distorted Korea’s
historical truth. I was
worried that similar history would repeat itself.
I was worried
that the government’s unfair treatment of tenants in commercial properties due
to COVID-19 pandemic was symptomatic of this.
I think that it
is possible to reform such education system into practical education system
that highly regards the teaching of character and health by reorganizing this
economic system.
This is because the foundation of God's reign is righteousness and justice.
The Bible says that ‘the man that commits adultery
with another man's wife the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to
death’. The Bible even tells us not to have lustful thought in our hearts.
Nonetheless, the Korean judiciary abolished the law against adultery.
The Bible says that even those who commit the crime of kidnapping shall
surely be put to death, too.
The bible also tell us that ‘having sex in a way that avoids pregnancy’ is an act of blasphemy to God. This is because it is God's inherent
authority to determine the ‘time of pregnancy of
children and the number of children’.
In the past, the Korean government promoted the ‘having sex in a way that avoids pregnancy’.
Of course, there is no country
in the world that makes and applies laws at the same level of the laws of the
Bible.
However, since the laws
of the Bible are the principles of human life, the laws of the Bible allow us
to see the world more accurately.
Among the crimes
against God and crimes against people, the seriousness of crimes against
humanity can be better understood when you look at the Bible verses(laws) that
include the phrase ‘surely be put to death’ in the Bible.
How can
we receive the Holy Spirit from Jehovah God in biblical way?
(What should we do to be filled with the Holy Spirit? What is the biblical way
to receive the Holy Spirit?)
How to receive the Holy Spirit: Pray to Jehovah
God → Find Bible verses → Believe the verses.
To receive the Holy Spirit from Jehovah, we must
first pray to Jehovah as follows: “Please teach me the meaning of the
Bible verses that came up as ‘The conditions for Jehovah to give us the
Holy Spirit.’ We can pray in our heart or with words.
Then, find the verses related to ‘The
conditions for Jehovah to give us the Holy Spirit’.
Finally, believe for yourself the Bible verses you found. Then, you will receive the Holy Spirit(Spirit of Jehovah, Spirit of Yahweh, Spirit of the God, Helper, Counselor, comforter, Advocate) from Jehovah.(Reference: http://zbuzok.com)
The
conditions for Jehovah to give us the Holy Spirit(the Spirit of Jehovah, the Spirit
of God, the Helper, the Comforter): ‘obedience
to God(Act 5:32)’, ‘repentance(Act 2:38)’, and ‘believing in the
Jesus(Act 11:17, Joh 7:39, Gal 3:2)’
I recommend Brian Tracy's book as a way to try to earn a living expenses.
(Pro12:27) The slothful man roasteth not that which he took in hunting; But the precious substance of men (is to) the diligent.
(Pro11:25) The liberal soul shall be made fat; And he that watereth shall be watered also himself.
(Mat6:3) But when you give alms, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing,
(Mat6:4) so that your alms may be in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you.
(Deu14:28) At the end of every three years thou shalt bring forth all the tithe of thine increase in the same year, and shalt lay it up within thy gates:
(Deu14:29) and the Levite, because he hath no portion nor inheritance with thee, and the sojourner, and the fatherless, and the widow, that are within thy gates, shall come, and shall eat and be satisfied; that Jehovah thy God may bless thee in all the work of thy hand which thou doest.
1 The one who sent the COVID-19 pandemic(Corona
virus pestilence): Jehovah(Yahweh) God
(Deu28:21)
Jehovah will make the pestilence cleave unto thee, until he have consumed thee
from off the land, whither thou goest in to possess it.
(Deu28:22) Jehovah will smite thee with consumption, and with fever, and
with inflammation, and with fiery heat, and with the sword, and with blasting,
and with mildew; and they shall pursue thee until thou perish.
(Deu28:27) Jehovah will smite thee with the boil of Egypt, and with the
emerods, and with the scurvy, and with the itch, whereof thou canst not be
healed.
(Amo4:10) I
have sent among you the pestilence after the manner of Egypt: your young men
have I slain with the sword, and have carried away your horses; and I have made
the stench of your camp to come up even into your nostrils: yet have ye not
returned unto me, saith Jehovah.
(2ch21:18) And
after all this Jehovah smote him in his bowels with an incurable disease.
(2ch21:19) And it
came to pass, in process of time, at the end of two years, that his bowels fell
out by reason of his sickness, and he died of sore diseases. And his people
made no burning for him, like the burning of his fathers.
(1ch21:14) So
Jehovah sent a pestilence upon Israel; and there fell of Israel seventy
thousand men.
(Eze14:21) For thus saith the Lord
Jehovah: How much more when I send my four sore judgments upon Jerusalem, the
sword, and the famine, and the evil beasts, and the pestilence, to cut off from
it man and beast!
(Eze33:27) Thus shalt thou say unto them,
Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: As I live, surely they that are in the waste
places shall fall by the sword; and him that is in the open field will I give
to the beasts to be devoured; and they that are in the strongholds and in the
caves shall die of the pestilence.
(Jer27:8) And it shall come to pass, that
the nation and the kingdom which will not serve the same Nebuchadnezzar king of
Babylon, and that will not put their neck under the yoke of the king of
Babylon, that nation will I punish, saith Jehovah, with the sword, and with the
famine, and with the pestilence, until I have consumed them by his hand.
(Jer29:17) thus
saith Jehovah of hosts; Behold, I will send upon them the sword, the famine,
and the pestilence, and will make them like vile figs, that cannot be eaten,
they are so bad.
(Jer29:18) And
I will pursue after them with the sword, with the famine, and with the
pestilence, and will deliver them to be tossed to and fro among all the kingdoms
of the earth, to be an execration, and an astonishment, and a hissing, and a
reproach, among all the nations whither I have driven them;
(Jer29:19) because they have not hearkened
to my words, saith Jehovah, wherewith I sent unto them my servants the
prophets, rising up early and sending them; but ye would not hear, saith
Jehovah.
(Exo15:26) and he said, If thou wilt
diligently hearken to the voice of Jehovah thy God, and wilt do that which is
right in his eyes, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his
statutes, I will put none of the diseases upon thee, which I have put upon the
Egyptians: for I am Jehovah that healeth thee.
(Exo23:25) And ye shall serve Jehovah your
God, and he will bless thy bread, and thy water; and I will take sickness away
from the midst of thee.
(Deu7:15) And Jehovah will take away from
thee all sickness; and none of the evil diseases of Egypt, which thou knowest,
will he put upon thee, but will lay them upon all them that hate thee.
(Exo4:6) And
Jehovah said furthermore unto him, Put now thy hand into thy bosom. And he put
his hand into his bosom: and when he took it out, behold, his hand was leprous,
as (white as) snow.
(Exo4:7) And he said, Put thy hand into
thy bosom again. (And he put his hand into his bosom again; and when he took it
out of his bosom, behold, it was turned again as his (other) flesh.)
(Eze12:16) But I will leave a few men of
them from the sword, from the famine, and from the pestilence; that they may
declare all their abominations among the nations whither they come; and they
shall know that I am Jehovah.
(Isa38:1) In
those days was Hezekiah sick unto death. And Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz
came to him, and said unto him, Thus saith Jehovah, Set thy house in order; for
thou shalt die, and not live.
(Isa38:2) Then
Hezekiah turned his face to the wall, and prayed unto Jehovah,
(Isa38:3) and
said, Remember now, O Jehovah, I beseech thee, how I have walked before thee in
truth and with a perfect heart, and have done that which is good in thy sight.
And Hezekiah wept sore.
(Isa38:4) Then
came the word of Jehovah to Isaiah, saying,
(Isa38:5) Go,
and say to Hezekiah, Thus saith Jehovah, the God of David thy father, I have
heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears: behold, I will add unto thy days
fifteen years.
(Isa38:6) And I
will deliver thee and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria; and I
will defend this city.
(Isa38:7) And
this shall be the sign unto thee from Jehovah, that Jehovah will do this thing
that he hath spoken:
(Isa38:8)
behold, I will cause the shadow on the steps, which is gone down on the dial of
Ahaz with the sun, to return backward ten steps. So the sun returned ten steps
on the dial whereon it was gone down.
(Isa38:9) The writing of Hezekiah king of
Judah, when he had been sick, and was recovered of his sickness.
(2ch16:12) And
in the thirty and ninth year of his reign Asa was diseased in his feet; his
disease was exceeding great: yet in his disease he sought not to Jehovah, but
to the physicians.
(2ch16:13) And
Asa slept with his fathers, and died in the one and fortieth year of his reign.
(2ch16:14) And they buried him in his own
sepulchres, which he had hewn out for himself in the city of David, and laid
him in the bed which was filled with sweet odors and divers kinds (of spices)
prepared by the perfumers' art: and they made a very great burning for him.
2 Solution(countermeasures)
to the COVID-19 pandemic(Corona virus pestilence): Repentance for forgiveness of sins
(1jo1:6) If we
say that we have fellowship with him and walk in the darkness, we lie, and do
not the truth:
(1jo1:7) but if
we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with
another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
(Eze18:21) But
if the wicked turn from all his sins that he hath committed, and keep all my
statutes, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall surely live, he shall
not die.
(Eze18:22) None
of his transgressions that he hath committed shall be remembered against him:
in his righteousness that he hath done he shall live.
(Eze18:23) Have
I any pleasure in the death of the wicked? saith the Lord Jehovah; and not
rather that he should return from his way, and live?
(Eze18:24) But
when the righteous turneth away from his righteousness, and committeth
iniquity, and doeth according to all the abominations that the wicked man
doeth, shall he live? None of his righteous deeds that he hath done shall be
remembered: in his trespass that he hath trespassed, and in his sin that he
hath sinned, in them shall he die.
(Eze18:25) Yet
ye say, The way of the Lord is not equal. Hear now, O house of Israel: Is not
my way equal? are not your ways unequal?
(Eze18:26) When
the righteous man turneth away from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity,
and dieth therein; in his iniquity that he hath done shall he die.
(Eze18:27)
Again, when the wicked man turneth away from his wickedness that he hath
committed, and doeth that which is lawful and right, he shall save his soul
alive.
(Eze18:28)
Because he considereth, and turneth away from all his transgressions that he
hath committed, he shall surely live, he shall not die.
(Eze18:29) Yet
saith the house of Israel, The way of the Lord is not equal. O house of Israel,
are not my ways equal? are not your ways unequal?
(Eze18:30)
Therefore I will judge you, O house of Israel, every one according to his ways,
saith the Lord Jehovah. Return ye, and turn yourselves from all your
transgressions; so iniquity shall not be your ruin.
(Eze18:31) Cast
away from you all your transgressions, wherein ye have transgressed; and make
you a new heart and a new spirit: for why will ye die, O house of Israel?
(Eze18:32) For
I have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth, saith the Lord Jehovah:
wherefore turn yourselves, and live.
(Jon3:10) And
God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; and God repented of
the evil which he said he would do unto them; and he did it not.
(Jer18:7) At
what instant I shall speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to
pluck up and to break down and to destroy it;
(Jer18:8) if
that nation, concerning which I have spoken, turn from their evil, I will
repent of the evil that I thought to do unto them.
(Joe2:12) Yet
even now, saith Jehovah, turn ye unto me with all your heart, and with fasting,
and with weeping, and with mourning:
(Joe2:13) and
rend your heart, and not your garments, and turn unto Jehovah your God; for he
is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and abundant in lovingkindness, and
repenteth him of the evil.
(Jer36:3) It
may be that the house of Judah will hear all the evil which I purpose to do
unto them; that they may return every man from his evil way; that I may forgive
their iniquity and their sin.
(Act3:19)
Repent ye therefore, and turn again, that your sins may be blotted out, that so
there may come seasons of refreshing from the presence of the Lord;
(Luk24:47) and
that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name unto all
the nations, beginning from Jerusalem.
(Luk17:3) Take
heed to yourselves: if thy brother sin, rebuke him; and if he repent, forgive
him.
(Lev4:22) When
a ruler sinneth, and doeth unwittingly any one of all the things which Jehovah
his God hath commanded not to be done, and is guilty;
(Lev4:23) if
his sin, wherein he hath sinned, be made known to him, he shall bring for his
oblation a goat, a male without blemish;
(Lev4:24) and
he shall lay his hand upon the head of the goat, and kill it in the place where
they kill the burnt-offering before Jehovah: it is a sin-offering.
(Lev4:25) And
the priest shall take of the blood of the sin-offering with his finger, and put
it upon the horns of the altar of burnt-offering; and the blood thereof shall
he pour out at the base of the altar of burnt-offering.
(Lev4:26) And
all the fat thereof shall he burn upon the altar, as the fat of the sacrifice
of peace-offerings; and the priest shall make atonement for him as concerning
his sin, and he shall be forgiven.
(1) Loving
Thy Neighbor: Thinking of the people as a family in a broad sense
(Mat22:37) And
he said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with
all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
(Mat22:38) This
is the great and first commandment.
(Mat22:39) And
a second like (unto it) is this, Thou
shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.
(Mat22:40) On these two commandments the whole law hangeth, and the
prophets.
(Exo20:12) Honor thy father and thy mother,
that thy days may be long in the land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee.
(Exo20:13) Thou shalt not kill.
(Exo20:14) Thou shalt not commit adultery.
(Exo20:15) Thou shalt not steal.
(Exo20:16) Thou shalt not bear false witness
against thy neighbor.
(Exo20:17) Thou shalt not covet thy
neighbor's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife, nor his
man-servant, nor his maid-servant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor anything that
is thy neighbor's.
(Being considerate of those in need: Systemic
reforms of various systems such as education system for employment and business
start-up, fair economic system, etc.)
(Deu14:28) At
the end of every three years thou shalt bring forth all the tithe of thine
increase in the same year, and shalt lay it up within thy gates:
(Deu14:29) and the Levite, because he hath no portion nor inheritance with
thee, and the sojourner, and the fatherless, and the widow, that are within thy
gates, shall come, and shall eat and be satisfied; that Jehovah thy God may
bless thee in all the work of thy hand which thou doest.
(Pro11:25) The liberal soul shall be made
fat; And he that watereth shall be watered also himself.
(Pro28:27) He that giveth unto the poor shall not lack; But he that hideth
his eyes shall have many a curse.
(Pro19:17) He that hath pity upon the poor
lendeth unto Jehovah, And his good deed will he pay him again.
(Jer22:16) He judged the cause of the poor and needy; then it was well.
Was not this to know me? saith Jehovah.
(Luk6:38) give, and it shall be given unto
you; good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, shall they give
into your bosom. For with what measure ye mete it shall be measured to you
again.
(Heb13:16) But to do good and to
communicate forget not: for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.
(Pro21:13) Whoso stoppeth his ears at the
cry of the poor, He also shall cry, but shall not be heard.
(Eze16:49)
Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom: pride, fulness of bread, and
prosperous ease was in her and in her daughters; neither did she strengthen the
hand of the poor and needy.
(Eze16:50) And they were haughty, and
committed abomination before me: therefore I took them away as I saw (good).
(Mat25:34) Then
shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father,
inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:
(Mat25:35) for
I was hungry, and ye gave me to eat; I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink; I was
a stranger, and ye took me in;
(Mat25:36)
naked, and ye clothed me; I was sick, and ye visited me; I was in prison, and
ye came unto me.
(Mat25:37) Then
shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee hungry, and fed
thee? or athirst, and gave thee drink?
(Mat25:38) And
when saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee?
(Mat25:39) And
when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?
(Mat25:40) And
the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye
did it unto one of these my brethren, (even) these least, ye did it unto me.
(Mat25:41) Then
shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into
the eternal fire which is prepared for the devil and his angels:
(Mat25:42) for
I was hungry, and ye did not give me to eat; I was thirsty, and ye gave me no
drink;
(Mat25:43) I
was a stranger, and ye took me not in; naked, and ye clothed me not; sick, and
in prison, and ye visited me not.
(Mat25:44) Then
shall they also answer, saying, Lord, when saw we thee hungry, or athirst, or a
stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee?
(Mat25:45) Then
shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not
unto one of these least, ye did it not unto me.
(Mat25:46) And these shall go away into
eternal punishment: but the righteous into eternal life.
(Eze18:5) But
if a man be just, and do that which is lawful and right,
(Eze18:6) and
hath not eaten upon the mountains, neither hath lifted up his eyes to the idols
of the house of Israel, neither hath defiled his neighbor's wife, neither hath
come near to a woman in her impurity,
(Eze18:7) and
hath not wronged any, but hath restored to the debtor his pledge, hath taken
nought by robbery, hath given his bread to the hungry, and hath covered the
naked with a garment;
(Eze18:8) he
that hath not given forth upon interest, neither hath taken any increase, that
hath withdrawn his hand from iniquity, hath executed true justice between man
and man,
(Eze18:9) hath walked in my statutes, and
hath kept mine ordinances, to deal truly; he is just, he shall surely live,
saith the Lord Jehovah.
(Isa58:6) Is
not this the fast that I have chosen: to loose the bonds of wickedness, to undo
the bands of the yoke, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break
every yoke?
(Isa58:7) Is it
not to deal thy bread to the hungry, and that thou bring the poor that are cast
out to thy house? when thou seest the naked, that thou cover him; and that thou
hide not thyself from thine own flesh?
(Isa58:8) Then
shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thy healing shall spring forth
speedily; and thy righteousness shall go before thee; the glory of Jehovah
shall by thy rearward.
(Isa58:9) Then
shalt thou call, and Jehovah will answer; thou shalt cry, and he will say, Here
I am. If thou take away from the midst of thee the yoke, the putting forth of
the finger, and speaking wickedly;
(Isa58:10) and if
thou draw out thy soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted soul: then
shall thy light rise in darkness, and thine obscurity be as the noonday;
(Isa58:11) and
Jehovah will guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in dry places, and
make strong thy bones; and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a
spring of water, whose waters fail not.
(Mat6:1) Take
heed that ye do not your righteousness before men, to be seen of them: else ye
have no reward with your Father who is in heaven.
(Mat6:2) When
therefore thou doest alms, sound not a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites
do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men.
Verily I say unto you, They have received their reward.
(Mat6:3) But
when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth:
(Mat6:4) that thine alms may be in secret:
and thy Father who seeth in secret shall recompense thee.
(Dan4:24) this
is the interpretation, O king, and it is the decree of the Most High, which is
come upon my lord the king:
(Dan4:25) that
thou shalt be driven from men, and thy dwelling shall be with the beasts of the
field, and thou shalt be made to eat grass as oxen, and shalt be wet with the
dew of heaven, and seven times shall pass over thee; till thou know that the
Most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will.
(Dan4:26) And
whereas they commanded to leave the stump of the roots of the tree; thy kingdom
shall be sure unto thee, after that thou shalt have known that the heavens do rule.
(Dan4:27)
Wherefore, O king, let my counsel be acceptable unto thee, and break off thy
sins by righteousness, and thine iniquities by showing mercy to the poor; if
there may be a lengthening of thy tranquillity.
(Dan4:28) All this came upon the king Nebuchadnezzar.
(Pro29:14) The king that faithfully judgeth the poor, His throne shall be
established for ever.
(Exo22:21) And
a sojourner shalt thou not wrong, neither shalt thou oppress him: for ye were
sojourners in the land of Egypt.
(Exo22:22) Ye
shall not afflict any widow, or fatherless child.
(Exo22:23) If
thou afflict them at all, and they cry at all unto me, I will surely hear their
cry;
(Exo22:24) and
my wrath shall wax hot, and I will kill you with the sword; and your wives
shall be widows, and your children fatherless.
(Deu27:19) Cursed be he that wresteth the justice (due) to the sojourner,
fatherless, and widow. And all the people shall say, Amen.
(Isa1:15) And
when ye spread forth your hands, I will hide mine eyes from you; yea, when ye make
many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of blood.
(Isa1:16) Wash
you, make you clean; put away the evil of your doings from before mine eyes;
cease to do evil;
(Isa1:17) learn to do well; seek justice, relieve the oppressed, judge the
fatherless, plead for the widow.
(Isa10:1) Woe
unto them that decree unrighteous decrees, and to the writers that write
perverseness;
(Isa10:2) to turn aside the needy from justice, and to rob the poor of my
people of their right, that widows may be their spoil, and that they may make
the fatherless their prey!
(Jer5:26) For
among my people are found wicked men: they watch, as fowlers lie in wait; they
set a trap, they catch men.
(Jer5:27) As a
cage is full of birds, so are their houses full of deceit: therefore they are
become great, and waxed rich.
(Jer5:28) They
are waxed fat, they shine: yea, they overpass in deeds of wickedness; they
plead not the cause, the cause of the fatherless, that they may prosper; and
the right of the needy do they not judge.
(Jer5:29) Shall I not visit for these things? saith Jehovah; shall not my
soul be avenged on such a nation as this?
(Jer7:5) For if
ye thoroughly amend your ways and your doings; if ye thoroughly execute justice
between a man and his neighbor;
(Jer7:6) if ye
oppress not the sojourner, the fatherless, and the widow, and shed not innocent
blood in this place, neither walk after other gods to your own hurt:
(Jer7:7) then will I cause you to dwell in this place, in the land that I
gave to your fathers, from of old even for evermore.
(Jer22:3) Thus
saith Jehovah: Execute ye justice and righteousness, and deliver him that is
robbed out of the hand of the oppressor: and do no wrong, do no violence, to
the sojourner, the fatherless, nor the widow; neither shed innocent blood in
this place.
(Jer22:4) For
if ye do this thing indeed, then shall there enter in by the gates of this
house kings sitting upon the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses,
he, and his servants, and his people.
(Jer22:5) But if ye will not hear these words, I swear by myself, saith
Jehovah, that this house shall become a desolation.
(Job31:16) If I
have withheld the poor from (their) desire, Or have caused the eyes of the
widow to fail,
(Job31:17) Or
have eaten my morsel alone, And the fatherless hath not eaten thereof
(Job31:18)
(Nay, from my youth he grew up with me as with a father, And her have I guided
from my mother's womb);
(Job31:19) If I
have seen any perish for want of clothing, Or that the needy had no covering;
(Job31:20) If
his loins have not blessed me, And if he hath not been warmed with the fleece
of my sheep;
(Job31:21) If I have lifted up my hand against the fatherless, Because I
saw my help in the gate:
(Job31:22) Then let my shoulder fall from the shoulder-blade, And mine arm
be broken from the bone.
(Job29:12)
Because I delivered the poor that cried, The fatherless also, that had none to
help him.
(Job29:13) The
blessing of him that was ready to perish came upon me; And I caused the widow's
heart to sing for joy.
(Job29:14) I
put on righteousness, and it clothed me: My justice was as a robe and a diadem.
(Job29:15) I
was eyes to the blind, And feet was I to the lame.
(Job29:16) I
was a father to the needy: And the cause of him that I knew not I searched out.
(Job29:17) And I brake the jaws of the unrighteous, And plucked the prey
out of his teeth.
(Luk10:25) And
behold, a certain lawyer stood up and made trial of him, saying, Teacher, what
shall I do to inherit eternal life?
(Luk10:26) And
he said unto him, What is written in the law? how readest thou?
(Luk10:27) And
he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and
with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy
neighbor as thyself.
(Luk10:28) And
he said unto him, Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt live.
(Luk10:29) But
he, desiring to justify himself, said unto Jesus, And who is my neighbor?
(Luk10:30)
Jesus made answer and said, A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to
Jericho; and he fell among robbers, who both stripped him and beat him, and
departed, leaving him half dead.
(Luk10:31) And
by chance a certain priest was going down that way: and when he saw him, he
passed by on the other side.
(Luk10:32) And
in like manner a Levite also, when he came to the place, and saw him, passed by
on the other side.
(Luk10:33) But
a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him,
he was moved with compassion,
(Luk10:34) and
came to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring on (them) oil and wine; and he
set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.
(Luk10:35) And
on the morrow he took out two shillings, and gave them to the host, and said,
Take care of him; and whatsoever thou spendest more, I, when I come back again,
will repay thee.
(Luk10:36)
Which of these three, thinkest thou, proved neighbor unto him that fell among
the robbers?
(Luk10:37) And he said, He that showed
mercy on him. And Jesus said unto him, Go, and do thou likewise.

(2) To love God
(1jo5:3) For this is the love of God, that
we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.
(Mat22:37) And he said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
(Mat22:38) This
is the great and first commandment.

whole law hangeth, and the prophets.

shalt have no other gods before me.

is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water

showing lovingkindness unto thousands of them that love me and keep my
commandments.

any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy man-servant, nor thy
maid-servant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:

that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore Jehovah blessed the
sabbath day, and hallowed it.

(gods) that came up of late, Which your fathers dreaded not.

(Apologies
for the government's past contraceptive policies, and provision of more active
support for housing, education, employment, etc. the more children there are.)
(‘Pregnancy and childbirth’ are the
processes by which God creates a person.
Since God has the inherent authority to decide the timing of a pregnancy and the
number of children that are born, contraception is an ungodly act that insults
God.
‘Having sex in a manner
that avoids pregnancy’ is just two people being
masturbation tools for each other.
Christian who received
the Holy Spirit cannot have ‘sex in a manner that avoids pregnancy’, knowing that
contraception is blasphemy.)
(I prayed to Jehovah God to let me know whether
contraception was right or wrong. As soon as the prayer is over, he let me know
that having sex in a way that avoids pregnancy is not right.
So I realized that it's very dumbfounding, absurd, and shameful that I had
sex in a way that avoids pregnancy in my past, in front of Jehovah God. For a
while, I couldn't have sex with my wife out of fear of Jehovah.
In the past, God revealed to me
the date I would die. I still have about 20
years left until the day I die. I didn't think I could go on
without having sexual relations for so long.
However, I was too ashamed to ask Jehovah God what I should do in the
future.
After that, the following words from the Bible came to my mind, ‘Jesus hears when someone prays to Him'. So, in
my mind(without speaking), I prayed to Jesus just as I am. Immediately, he told
me many things, including ‘You
must reverse your wife's sterilization procedure' in a perfect language.)
(Gen38:9) And
Onan knew that the seed would not be his; and it came to pass, when he went in
unto his brother's wife, that he spilled it
on the ground, lest he should give seed to his brother.
(Gen38:10) And the thing which he did was evil in
the sight of Jehovah: and he slew him also.
(Deu25:5) If
brethren dwell together, and one of them die, and have no son, the wife of the
dead shall not be married without unto a stranger: her husband's brother shall
go in unto her, and take her to him to wife, and perform the duty of a
husband's brother unto her.
(Deu25:6) And
it shall be, that the first-born that she beareth shall succeed in the name of
his brother that is dead, that his name be not blotted out of Israel.
(Deu25:7) And
if the man like not to take his brother's wife, then his brother's wife shall
go up to the gate unto the elders, and say, My husband's brother refuseth to
raise up unto his brother a name in Israel; he will not perform the duty of a
husband's brother unto me.
(Deu25:8) Then
the elders of his city shall call him, and speak unto him: and if he stand, and
say, I like not to take her;
(Deu25:9) then
shall his brother's wife come unto him in the presence of the elders, and loose
his shoe from off his foot, and spit in his face; and she shall answer and say,
So shall it be done unto the man that doth not build up his brother's house.
(Deu25:10) And
his name shall be called in Israel, The house of him that hath his shoe loosed.
(Isa44:24) Thus
saith Jehovah, thy Redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb: I am
Jehovah, that maketh all things; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that
spreadeth abroad the earth (who is with me?);
(Psa139:13) For
thou didst form my inward parts: Thou didst cover me in my mother's womb.
(Psa139:14) I
will give thanks unto thee; For I am fearfully and wonderfully made: Wonderful
are thy works; And that my soul knoweth right well.
(Jer1:5) Before
I formed thee in the belly I knew thee, and before thou camest forth out of the
womb I sanctified thee; I have appointed thee a prophet unto the nations.
(Job31:15) Did
not he that made me in the womb make him? And did not one fashion us in the
womb?
(Isa44:2) Thus
saith Jehovah that made thee, and formed thee from the womb, who will help
thee: Fear not, O Jacob my servant; and thou, Jeshurun, whom I have chosen.
(Job40:15)
Behold now, behemoth, which I made as well as thee; He eateth grass as an ox.
(Exo4:11) And
Jehovah said unto him, Who hath made man's mouth? Or who maketh (a man) dumb,
or deaf, or seeing, or blind? Is it not I, Jehovah?
(Zec12:1) The
burden of the word of Jehovah concerning Israel. (Thus) saith Jehovah, who
stretcheth forth the heavens, and layeth the foundation of the earth, and
formeth the spirit of man within him:
(Psa33:13)
Jehovah looketh from heaven; He beholdeth all the sons of men;
(Psa33:14) From
the place of his habitation he looketh forth Upon all the inhabitants of the
earth,
(Psa33:15) He
that fashioneth the hearts of them all, That considereth all their works.
(Luk11:39) And
the Lord said unto him, Now ye the Pharisees cleanse the outside of the cup and
of the platter; but your inward part is full of extortion and wickedness.

foolish ones, did not he that made the outside make the inside also?
(Isa66:9) Shall
I bring to the birth, and not cause to bring forth? saith Jehovah: shall I that
cause to bring forth shut (the womb)? saith thy God.
(Rut4:13) So
Boaz took Ruth, and she became his wife; and he went in unto her, and Jehovah
gave her conception, and she bare a son.
(Gen20:17) And
Abraham prayed unto God. And God healed Abimelech, and his wife, and his
maid-servants. And they bare children.
(Gen20:18) For
Jehovah had fast closed up all the wombs of the house of Abimelech, because of
Sarah, Abraham's wife.
(Gen30:1) And
when Rachel saw that she bare Jacob no children, Rachel envied her sister; and
she said unto Jacob, Give me children, or else I die.
(Gen30:2) And
Jacob's anger was kindled against Rachel: and he said, Am I in God's stead, who
hath withheld from thee the fruit of the womb?
(Rom9:21) Or
hath not the potter a right over the clay, from the same lump to make one part
a vessel unto honor, and another unto dishonor?
(Rom9:22) What
if God, willing to show his wrath, and to make his power known, endured with
much longsuffering vessels of wrath fitted unto destruction:
(Rom9:23) and
that he might make known the riches of his glory upon vessels of mercy, which
he afore prepared unto glory,
(Isa64:8) But
now, O Jehovah, thou art our Father; we are the clay, and thou our potter; and
we all are the work of thy hand.
(Children are a inheritance and a blessing from God)
(Psa127:3) Lo,
children are a heritage of Jehovah; (And) the fruit of the womb is (his)
reward.
(Psa127:4) As
arrows in the hand of a mighty man, So are the children of youth.
(Psa127:5)
Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them: They shall not be put to
shame, When they speak with their enemies in the gate.

Eli blessed Elkanah and his wife, and said, Jehovah give thee seed of this
woman for the petition which was asked of Jehovah. And they went unto their own
home.
(1sa2:21) And
Jehovah visited Hannah, and she conceived, and bare three sons and two
daughters. And the child Samuel grew before Jehovah.
(Gen33:5) And
he lifted up his eyes, and saw the women and the children; and said, Who are
these with thee? And he said, The children whom God hath graciously given thy
servant.
(Gen48:9) And
Joseph said unto his father, They are my sons, whom God hath given me here. And
he said, Bring them, I pray thee, unto me, and I will bless them.
(Psa128:1) [A
Song of Ascents.] Blessed is every one that feareth Jehovah, That walketh in
his ways.
(Psa128:2) For
thou shalt eat the labor of thy hands: Happy shalt thou be, and it shall be
well with thee.
(Psa128:3) Thy
wife shall be as a fruitful vine, In the innermost parts of thy house; Thy
children like olive plants, Round about thy table.
(Psa128:4)
Behold, thus shall the man be blessed That feareth Jehovah.
3. If you do not repent: God will punish
you more severely
(Lev26:15) and
if ye shall reject my statutes, and if your soul abhor mine ordinances, so that
ye will not do all my commandments, but break my covenant;
(Lev26:16) I
also will do this unto you: I will appoint terror over you, even consumption
and fever, that shall consume the eyes, and make the soul to pine away; and ye
shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it.
(Lev26:17) And
I will set my face against you, and ye shall be smitten before your enemies:
they that hate you shall rule over you; and ye shall flee when none pursueth
you.
(Lev26:18) And if ye will not yet for these
things hearken unto me, then I will chastise you seven times more for your
sins.
(Lev26:19) And
I will break the pride of your power: and I will make your heaven as iron, and
your earth as brass;
(Lev26:20) and
your strength shall be spent in vain; for your land shall not yield its
increase, neither shall the trees of the land yield their fruit.
(Lev26:21) And if ye walk contrary unto me, and
will not hearken unto me, I will bring seven times more plagues upon you
according to your sins.
(Lev26:22) And
I will send the beast of the field among you, which shall rob you of your
children, and destroy your cattle, and make you few in number; and your ways
shall become desolate.
(Lev26:23) And
if by these things ye will not be reformed unto me, but will walk contrary unto
me;
(Lev26:24) then will I also walk contrary unto
you; and I will smite you, even I, seven times for your sins.
(Lev26:25) And
I will bring a sword upon you, that shall execute the vengeance of the
covenant; and ye shall be gathered together within your cities: and I will send
the pestilence among you; and ye shall be delivered into the hand of the enemy.
(Lev26:26) When
I break your staff of bread, ten women shall bake your bread in one oven, and
they shall deliver your bread again by weight: and ye shall eat, and not be
satisfied.
(Lev26:27) And
if ye will not for all this hearken unto me, but walk contrary unto me;
(Lev26:28) then I will walk contrary unto you
in wrath; and I also will chastise you seven times for your sins.
(Lev26:29) And
ye shall eat the flesh of your sons, and the flesh of your daughters shall ye
eat.
(Lev26:30) And
I will destroy your high places, and cut down your sun-images, and cast your
dead bodies upon the bodies of your idols; and my soul shall abhor you.
4. Types of disease God brings upon: Unlimited
(Deu28:58) If
thou wilt not observe to do all the words of this law that are written in this
book, that thou mayest fear this glorious and fearful name, JEHOVAH THY GOD;
(Deu28:59) then
Jehovah will make thy plagues wonderful, and the plagues of thy seed, even
great plagues, and of long continuance, and sore sicknesses, and of long
continuance.
(Deu28:60) And he will bring upon thee again all the
diseases of Egypt, which thou wast afraid of; and they shall cleave unto thee.
(Deu28:61) Also every sickness,
and every plague, which is not written in the book of this law, them will Jehovah bring upon
thee, until thou be destroyed.
5 Cause of the COVID-19
pandemic(Corona virus plague): The sin of man
(Jon5:14) Afterward Jesus findeth him in
the temple, and said unto him, Behold,
thou art made whole: sin no more, lest a worse thing befall thee.
(Deu28:58) If thou wilt not observe to do all
the words of this law that are written in this book, that thou mayest fear this
glorious and fearful name, JEHOVAH THY GOD;
(Deu28:59) then Jehovah will make thy plagues wonderful, and the plagues
of thy seed, even great plagues, and of long continuance, and sore sicknesses,
and of long continuance.
Sin
(1) (Lev4:22) When a ruler sinneth, and doeth unwittingly
any one of all the things which Jehovah his God hath commanded not to be done,
and is guilty
(2) (1jo3:4) Every one that doeth sin
doeth also lawlessness; and sin is lawlessness.
(3) (1jo5:17) All unrighteousness is sin:
and there is a sin not unto death.
(4) (Neh1:7) we have dealt very corruptly against thee,
and have not kept the commandments, nor the statutes, nor the ordinances, which
thou commandedst thy servant Moses.
(5) (Rom14:23) But he that doubteth is condemned if he
eat, because (he eateth) not of faith; and whatsoever is not of faith is sin.
(1) (Lev4:22) When a ruler sinneth, and doeth unwittingly any one of all the
things which Jehovah his God hath commanded not to be done, and is guilty
(Leviticus 4:22-26) When a ruler
sinneth, and doeth unwittingly any one of all the things which Jehovah his God
hath commanded not to be done, and is guilty; if his sin, wherein he
hath sinned, be made known to him, he shall bring for his oblation a goat, a
male without blemish. And he shall lay his hand upon the head of the
goat, and kill it in the place where they kill the burnt-offering before
Jehovah: it is a sin-offering. And the priest shall take of the
blood of the sin-offering with his finger, and put it upon the horns of the
altar of burnt-offering; and the blood thereof shall he pour out at the base of
the altar of burnt-offering. And all the fat thereof shall he burn
upon the altar, as the fat of the sacrifice of peace-offerings; and the priest
shall make atonement for him as concerning his sin, and he shall be forgiven.
(Leviticus 6:1-4) And Jehovah spake
unto Moses, saying, If any one sin, and commit a trespass against
Jehovah, and deal falsely with his neighbor in a matter of deposit, or of
bargain, or of robbery, or have oppressed his neighbor, or have
found that which was lost, and deal falsely therein, and swear to a lie; in any
of all these things that a man doeth, sinning therein; then it shall
be, if he hath sinned, and is guilty, that he shall restore that which he took
by robbery, or the thing which he hath gotten by oppression, or the deposit
which was committed to him, or the lost thing which he found,
(Jeremiah 16:10-11) And it shall
come to pass, when thou shalt show this people all these words, and they shall
say unto thee, Wherefore hath Jehovah pronounced all this great evil against
us? or what is our iniquity? or what is our sin that we have committed against
Jehovah our God? Then shalt thou say unto them, Because your fathers
have forsaken me, saith Jehovah, and have walked after other gods, and have
served them, and have worshipped them, and have forsaken me, and have not kept
my law;
(Daniel 9:10-11) neither have we
obeyed the voice of Jehovah our God, to walk in his laws, which he set before
us by his servants the prophets. Yea, all Israel have transgressed
thy law, even turning aside, that they should not obey thy voice: therefore
hath the curse been poured out upon us, and the oath that is written in the law
of Moses the servant of God; for we have sinned against him.
(Jam2:10) For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet stumble in one (point), he is become guilty of all.
(Jam2:11) For he that said, Do not commit adultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if thou dost not commit adultery, but killest, thou art become a transgressor of the law.
(Jam2:12) So speak ye, and so do, as men that are to be judged by a law of liberty.
(1jo3:8) he that doeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. To this end was the Son of God manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
(1jo3:9) Whosoever is begotten of God doeth no sin, because his seed abideth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is begotten of God.
(Tit3:10) A factious man after a first and second admonition refuse;
(Tit3:11) knowing that such a one is perverted, and sinneth, being self-condemned.
(Lev18:1) And Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying,
(Lev18:2) Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, I am Jehovah your God.
(Lev18:3) After the doings of the land of Egypt, wherein ye dwelt, shall ye not do: and after the doings of the land of Canaan, whither I bring you, shall ye not do; neither shall ye walk in their statutes.
(Lev18:4) Mine ordinances shall ye do, and my statutes shall ye keep, to walk therein: I am Jehovah your God.
(Lev18:5) Ye shall therefore keep my statutes, and mine ordinances; which if a man do, he shall live in them: I am Jehovah.
(Mat4:4) But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.
(Deu8:2) And thou shalt remember all the way which Jehovah thy God hath led thee these forty years in the wilderness, that he might humble thee, to prove thee, to know what was in thy heart, whether thou wouldest keep his commandments, or not.
(Deu8:3) And he humbled thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with manna, which thou knewest not, neither did thy fathers know; that he might make thee know that man doth not live by bread only, but by everything that proceedeth out of the mouth of Jehovah doth man live.
(2) (1jo3:4) Every one that doeth sin
doeth also lawlessness; and sin is lawlessness.
(Hebrews 1:9) Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; Therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee With the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
(Psalm 45:7) Thou hast loved
righteousness, and hated wickedness: Therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee
With the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
(1ti1:8) But we know that the law is good, if a man use
it lawfully,
(1ti1:9) as knowing this, that law is not made for a
righteous man, but for the lawless and unruly, for the ungodly and sinners, for
the unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for
manslayers,
(Rom5:13) for until the law sin was in the world; but sin
is not imputed when there is no law.
(Rom3:31) Do we then make the law of none effect through faith? God forbid: nay, we establish the law.
(Rom2:13) for
not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall
be justified:
(Rom6:15) What
then? shall we sin, because we are not under law, but under grace? God forbid.
(Eze33:14) Again, when I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; if he turn from his sin, and do that which is lawful and right;
(Eze33:15) if
the wicked restore the pledge, give again that which he had taken by robbery,
walk in the statutes of life, committing no iniquity; he shall surely live, he
shall not die.
(Eze33:16) None
of his sins that he hath committed shall be remembered against him: he hath done
that which is lawful and right; he shall surely live.
(1co9:21) to them that are without law, as without law,
not being without law to God, but under law
to Christ, that I might gain them that are without law.
(2ti2:5) And if also
a man contend in the games, he is not crowded, except he have contended lawfully.
(Mat7:22) Many
will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy by thy name, and by
thy name cast out demons, and by thy name do many mighty works?
(Mat7:23) And
then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work
iniquity.
(Mat13:41) The
Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his
kingdom all things that cause stumbling, and them that do iniquity,
(Mat13:42) and
shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be the weeping and the
gnashing of teeth.
(3) (1jo5:17) All unrighteousness is sin:
and there is a sin not unto death.
(Ezekiel 18:9) hath walked in my statutes, and hath kept mine ordinances, to deal truly; he is just, he shall surely live, saith the Lord Jehovah.
(Luke 1:6) And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.
(2 Kings 17:7-9) And it was so, because the children of Israel had sinned against Jehovah their God, who brought them up out of the land of Egypt from under the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and had feared other gods, and walked in the statutes of the nations, whom Jehovah cast out from before the children of Israel, and of the kings of Israel, which they made. And the children of Israel did secretly things that were not right against Jehovah their God: and they built them high places in all their cities, from the tower of the watchmen to the fortified city;
(Deuteronomy 6:25) And it shall be
righteousness unto us, if we observe to do all this commandment before Jehovah
our God, as he hath commanded us.
(Romans 6:16) Know ye not, that to
whom ye present yourselves as servants unto obedience, his servants ye
are whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto
righteousness?
(Rom2:6) who will render to every man
according to his works:
(Rom2:7) to them that by patience in
well-doing seek for glory and honor and incorruption, eternal life:
(Rom2:8) but unto them that are factious, and obey not the truth, but obey
unrighteousness, (shall be) wrath and indignation,
(1co6:9) Or know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom
of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers,
nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with men,
(1co6:10) nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor
extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
(Mat5:20) For I say unto you, that except your righteousness shall exceed (the righteousness) of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no wise enter into the kingdom of heaven.
(4) (Neh1:7) we have dealt very corruptly against thee, and have not kept
the commandments, nor the statutes, nor the ordinances, which thou commandedst
thy servant Moses.
(Lev18:4) Mine
ordinances shall ye do, and my statutes shall ye keep, to walk therein: I am
Jehovah your God.
(Lev18:5) Ye shall
therefore keep my statutes, and mine ordinances; which if a man do, he shall
live in them: I am Jehovah.
(Lev18:6) None of you shall approach to any that are near
of kin to him, to uncover (their) nakedness: I am Jehovah.
(Lev18:7) The nakedness of thy father, even the nakedness
of thy mother, shalt thou not uncover: she is thy mother; thou shalt not
uncover her nakedness.
(Lev18:8) The nakedness of thy father's wife shalt thou
not uncover: it is thy father's nakedness.
(Lev18:9) The nakedness of thy sister, the daughter of
thy father, or the daughter of thy mother, whether born at home, or born
abroad, even their nakedness thou shalt not uncover.
(Lev18:10) The nakedness of thy son's daughter, or of thy
daughter's daughter, even their nakedness thou shalt not uncover: for theirs is
thine own nakedness.
(Lev18:11) The nakedness of thy father's wife's daughter,
begotten of thy father, she is thy sister, thou shalt not uncover her
nakedness.
(Lev18:12) Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy
father's sister: she is thy father's near kinswoman.
(Lev18:13) Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy
mother's sister: for she is thy mother's near kinswoman.
(Lev18:14) Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy
father's brother, thou shalt not approach to his wife: she is thine aunt.
(Lev18:15) Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy
daughter-in-law: she is thy son's wife; thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.
(Lev18:16) Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy
brother's wife: it is thy brother's nakedness.
(Lev18:17) Thou shalt not uncover the
nakedness of a woman and her daughter; thou shalt not take her son's daughter,
or her daughter's daughter, to uncover her nakedness; they are near kinswomen:
it is wickedness.
(Deu22:13) If any man take a wife, and go in unto her,
and hate her,
(Deu22:14) and lay shameful things to her charge, and
bring up an evil name upon her, and say, I took this woman, and when I came
nigh to her, I found not in her the tokens of virginity;
(Deu22:15) then shall the father of the damsel, and her
mother, take and bring forth the tokens of the damsel's virginity unto the elders
of the city in the gate;
(Deu22:16) and the damsel's father shall say unto the
elders, I gave my daughter unto this man to wife, and he hateth her;
(Deu22:17) and, lo, he hath laid shameful things (to her
charge), saying, I found not in thy daughter the tokens of virginity; and yet
these are the tokens of my daughter's virginity. And they shall spread the
garment before the elders of the city.
(Deu22:18) And the elders of that city shall take the man
and chastise him;
(Deu22:19) and they shall fine him a hundred (shekels) of
silver, and give them unto the father of the damsel, because he hath brought up
an evil name upon a virgin of Israel: and she shall be his wife; he may not put
her away all his days.
(Deu22:20) But if
this thing be true, that the tokens of virginity were not found in the damsel;
(Deu22:21) then they shall bring out the
damsel to the door of her father's house, and the men of her city shall stone
her to death with stones, because she hath wrought folly in Israel, to play the
harlot in her father's house: so shalt thou put away the evil from the midst of
thee.
(Gen13:13) Now the men of Sodom were
wicked and sinners against Jehovah exceedingly.
(Jud1:7) Even as Sodom and Gomorrah, and
the cities about them, having in like manner with these given themselves over
to fornication and gone after strange flesh, are set forth as an example,
suffering the punishment of eternal fire.
(Gen19:1) And the two angels came to Sodom at even. And Lot sat in the gate of Sodom. And Lot saw them, and rose up to meet them. And he bowed himself with his face to the earth.
(Gen19:2) And he said, Behold now, my lords, turn aside, I pray you, into your servant's house, and tarry all night, and wash your feet, and ye shall rise up early, and go on your way. And they said, Nay. But we will abide in the street all night.
(Gen19:3) And he urged them greatly. And they turned in unto him, and entered into his house. And he made them a feast, and did bake unleavened bread, and they did eat.
(Gen19:4) But before they lay down, the men of the city, (even) the men of Sodom, compassed the house round, both young and old, all the people from every quarter.
(Gen19:5) And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men that came in to thee this night? Bring them out unto us, that we may know them.
(Gen19:6) And Lot went out unto them to the door, and shut the door after him.
(Gen19:7) And he said, I pray you, my brethren, do not so wickedly.
(Gen19:8) Behold now, I have two daughters that have not known man. Let me, I pray you, bring them but unto you, and do ye to them as is good in your eyes. Only unto these men do nothing, forasmuch as they are come under the shadow of my roof.
(Neh1:6) Let thine ear now be attentive, and thine eyes
open, that thou mayest hearken unto the prayer of thy servant, which I pray
before thee at this time, day and night, for the children of Israel thy
servants while I confess the sins of the children of Israel, which we have
sinned against thee. Yea, I and my father's house have sinned:
(Neh1:7) we have dealt very corruptly against thee, and
have not kept the commandments, nor the statutes, nor the ordinances, which
thou commandedst thy servant Moses.
(2ch33:8) neither will I any more remove the foot of
Israel from off the land which I have appointed for your fathers, if only they
will observe to do all that I have commanded them, even all the law and the
statutes and the ordinances (given) by Moses.
(2ch33:9) And Manasseh seduced Judah and the inhabitants
of Jerusalem, so that they did evil more than did the nations whom Jehovah
destroyed before the children of Israel.
(Luk13:25) When once the master of the house is risen up,
and hath shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the
door, saying, Lord, open to us; and he shall answer and say to you, I know you
not whence ye are;
(Luk13:26) then shall ye begin to say, We did eat and
drink in thy presence, and thou didst teach in our streets;
(Luk13:27) and he shall say, I tell you, I
know not whence ye are; depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity.
(Rom2:9) tribulation
and anguish, upon every soul of man that worketh evil, of the Jew first, and
also of the Greek;
(Rom2:10) but glory and honor and peace to every man that
worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek:
(Eze18:4) Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the
father, so also the soul of the son is mine: the soul that sinneth, it shall
die.
(Eze18:5) But if a man be just, and do that which is
lawful and right,
(Eze18:9) hath walked in my statutes, and hath kept mine
ordinances, to deal truly; he is just, he shall surely live, saith the Lord
Jehovah.
(Eze18:10) If he beget a son that is a
robber, a shedder of blood, and that doeth any one of these things,
(5) (Rom14:23) But he that doubteth is condemned if he eat, because (he
eateth) not of faith; and whatsoever is not of faith is sin.
(James 2:26 ) For as the body apart from the spirit is dead, even so faith apart from works is dead.
A The condition that Jehovah gives the Holy Spirit to a man
(Act11:17) If then God gave unto them the like gift as (he did) also unto us, when we believed on the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I, that I could withstand God?
(Act5:32) And we are witnesses of these things; and (so
is) the Holy Spirit, whom God hath given to them that obey him.
(Act2:38) And Peter (said) unto them, Repent ye, and be
baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ unto the remission of
your sins; and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
B Believing in God
(Deu9:23) And when Jehovah sent you from Kadesh-barnea, saying, Go up and possess the land which I have given you; then ye rebelled against the commandment of Jehovah your God, and ye believed him not, nor hearkened to his voice.
(Heb3:16) For who, when they heard, did provoke? nay, did
not all they that came out of Egypt by Moses?
(Heb3:17) And with whom was he displeased forty years?
was it not with them that sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?
(Heb3:18) And to whom sware he that they should not enter
into his rest, but to them that were disobedient?
(Heb3:19) And we see that they were not able to enter in
because of unbelief.
(2ki17:13) Yet Jehovah testified unto Israel, and unto
Judah, by every prophet, and every seer, saying, Turn ye from your evil ways,
and keep my commandments and my statutes, according to all the law which I
commanded your fathers, and which I sent to you by my servants the prophets.
(2ki17:14) Notwithstanding, they would not hear, but
hardened their neck, like to the neck of their fathers, who believed not in
Jehovah their God.
(2ki17:15) And they rejected his statutes, and his
covenant that he made with their fathers, and his testimonies which he
testified unto them; and they followed vanity, and became vain, and (went)
after the nations that were round about them, concerning whom Jehovah had
charged them that they should not do like them.
(2ki17:16) And they forsook all the commandments of
Jehovah their God, and made them molten images, even two calves, and made an
Asherah, and worshipped all the host of heaven, and served Baal.
(Rom3:29) Or is God (the God) of Jews
only? is he not (the God) of Gentiles also? Yea, of Gentiles also:
(1ti6:15) which in its own times he shall show, who is
the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords;
(1ti6:16) who only hath immortality,
dwelling in light unapproachable; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom
(be) honor and power eternal. Amen.
(Rev1:18) and the Living one; and I was
dead, and behold, I am alive for evermore, and I have the keys of death and of
Hades.
C Believing in Jesus
(Jon12:44) And Jesus cried and said, He that believeth on me, believeth not on me, but on him that sent me.
(Gal2:17) But if, while we sought to be justified in Christ, we ourselves also were found sinners, is Christ a minister of sin? God forbid.
(Rom3:31) Do we then make the law of none effect through faith? God forbid: nay, we establish the law.
(1jo4:1) Beloved, believe not every spirit, but prove the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets are gone out into the world.
(1jo4:2) Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:
(1jo4:3) and every spirit that confesseth not Jesus is not of God: and this is the (spirit) of the antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it cometh; and now it is in the world already.
(Rom9:20) Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why didst thou make me thus?
(Rom9:21) Or hath not the potter a right over the clay, from the same lump to make one part a vessel unto honor, and another unto dishonor?
(Isa29:16) Ye turn things upside down! Shall the potter be esteemed as clay; that the thing made should say of him that made it, He made me not; or the thing formed say of him that formed it, He hath no understanding?
(1 Corinthians 3:23) and ye are Christ's; and Christ is God's.
(Rev1:18) and the Living one; and I was
dead, and behold, I am alive for evermore, and I have the keys of death and of
Hades.
(Act10:39) And we are witnesses of all things which he did both in the
country of the Jews, and in Jerusalem; whom also they slew, hanging him on a tree.
(Act10:40) Him God raised up the third day, and gave him to be made
manifest,
(Luk24:38) And he said unto them, Why are ye troubled?
and wherefore do questionings arise in your heart?
(Luk24:39) See my hands and my feet, that it is I myself:
handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye behold me having.
(1ti6:15) which in its own times he shall show, who is
the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords;
(1ti6:16) who only hath immortality,
dwelling in light unapproachable; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom
(be) honor and power eternal. Amen.
(Jon16:9) of sin, because they believe not on me;
(Jon3:14) And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the
wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up;
(Jon3:15) that whosoever believeth may in him have
eternal life.
(Jon3:20) For every one that doeth evil hateth the light,
and cometh not to the light, lest his works should be reproved.
(Jon3:21) But he that doeth the truth cometh to the
light, that his works may be made manifest, that they have been wrought in God.
(Rom3:20) because by the works of the law shall no flesh
be justified in his sight; for through the law (cometh) the knowledge of sin.
(Rom3:21) But now apart from the law a righteousness of
God hath been manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets, being
witnessed by the law and the prophets;
(Rom3:26) for the showing, (I say), of his righteousness
at this present season: that he might himself be just, and the justifier of him
that hath faith in Jesus.
(Num21:8) And Jehovah said unto Moses, Make thee a fiery
serpent, and set it upon a standard: and it shall come to pass, that every one
that is bitten, when he seeth it, shall live.
(Num21:9) And Moses made a serpent of brass, and set it
upon the standard: and it came to pass, that if a serpent had bitten any man,
when he looked unto the serpent of brass, he lived.
D Believing in people
(Jon13:2) And during supper, the devil having already put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's (son), to betray him,
(Luk22:3) And Satan entered into Judas who was called
Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve.
(Luk22:4) And he went away, and communed with the chief
priests and captains, how he might deliver him unto them.
(Luk22:5) And they were glad, and covenanted to give him
money.
(Luk22:6) And he consented, and sought opportunity to
deliver him unto them in the absence of the multitude.
(Jon6:70) Jesus answered them, Did not I choose you the
twelve, and one of you is a devil?
(Jon6:71) Now he spake of Judas (the son) of Simon
Iscariot, for he it was that should betray him, (being) one of the twelve.
(Luk8:11) Now the parable is this: The seed is the word
of God.
(Luk8:12) And those by the way side are they that have
heard; then cometh the devil, and taketh away the word from their heart, that
they may not believe and be saved.
(Mat16:22) And Peter took him, and began to rebuke him,
saying, Be it far from thee, Lord: this shall never be unto thee.
(Mat16:23) But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee
behind me, Satan: thou art a stumbling-block unto me: for thou mindest not the
things of God, but the things of men.
(Act13:6) And when they had gone through the whole island
unto Paphos, they found a certain sorcerer, a false prophet, a Jew, whose name
was Bar-jesus;
(Act13:7) who was with the proconsul, Sergius Paulus, a
man of understanding. The same called unto him Barnabas and Saul, and sought to
hear the word of God.
(Act13:8) But Elymas the sorcerer (for so is his name by
interpretation) withstood them, seeking to turn aside the proconsul from the
faith.
(Act13:9) But Saul, who is also (called) Paul, filled
with the Holy Spirit, fastened his eyes on him,
(Act13:10) and said, O full of all guile and all villany,
thou son of the devil, thou enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to
pervert the right ways of the Lord?
(Rev16:13) And I saw (coming) out of the mouth of the
dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false
prophet, three unclean spirits, as it were frogs:
(Rev16:14) for they are spirits of demons, working signs;
which go forth unto the kings of the whole world, to gather them together unto
the war of the great day of God, the Almighty.
(1ti4:1) But the Spirit saith expressly, that in later times some shall fall away from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of demons,
(1ti4:2) through the hypocrisy of men that speak lies, branded in their own conscience as with a hot iron;
(2pe2:1) But there arose false prophets also among the people, as among you also there shall be false teachers, who shall privily bring in destructive heresies, denying even the Master that bought them, bringing upon themselves swift destruction.
(2pe2:2) And many shall follow their lascivious doings; by reason of whom the way of the truth shall be evil spoken of.
(2pe2:3) And in covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose sentence now from of old lingereth not, and their destruction slumbereth not.
(Mat7:22) Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord,
did we not prophesy by thy name, and by thy name cast out demons, and by thy
name do many mighty works?
(Mat7:23) And then will I profess unto them, I never knew
you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
(Mat15:13) But he answered and said, Every plant which my
heavenly Father planted not, shall be rooted up.
(Mat15:14) Let them alone: they are blind guides. And if
the blind guide the blind, both shall fall into a pit.
(Jer17:5) Thus saith Jehovah: Cursed is the man that
trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from
Jehovah.
(Jer17:6) For he shall be like the heath in the desert,
and shall not see when good cometh, but shall inhabit the parched places in the
wilderness, a salt land and not inhabited.
(Jer17:7) Blessed is the man that trusteth in Jehovah,
and whose trust Jehovah is.
(Jer17:8) For he shall be as a tree planted by the
waters, that spreadeth out its roots by the river, and shall not fear when heat
cometh, but its leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of
drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit.
(Deu13:1) If there arise in the midst of thee a prophet,
or a dreamer of dreams, and he give thee a sign or a wonder,
(Deu13:2) and the sign or the wonder come to pass,
whereof he spake unto thee, saying, Let us go after other gods, which thou hast
not known, and let us serve them;
(Deu13:3) thou shalt not hearken unto the words of that
prophet, or unto that dreamer of dreams: for Jehovah your God proveth you, to
know whether ye love Jehovah your God with all your heart and with all your
soul.
(Deu13:4) Ye shall walk after Jehovah your God, and fear
him, and keep his commandments, and obey his voice, and ye shall serve him, and
cleave unto him.
(Deu13:5) And that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams,
shall be put to death, because he hath spoken rebellion against Jehovah your
God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed thee out of the
house of bondage, to draw thee aside out of the way which Jehovah thy God
commanded thee to walk in. So shalt thou put away the evil from the midst of
thee.
(Deu13:6) If thy brother, the son of thy mother, or thy
son, or thy daughter, or the wife of thy bosom, or thy friend, that is as thine
own soul, entice thee secretly, saying, Let us go and serve other gods, which
thou hast not known, thou, nor thy fathers;
(Deu13:7) of the gods of the peoples that are round about
you, nigh unto thee, or far off from thee, from the one end of the earth even
unto the other end of the earth;
(Deu13:8) thou shalt not consent unto him, nor hearken
unto him; neither shall thine eye pity him, neither shalt thou spare, neither
shalt thou conceal him:
(Deu13:9) but thou shalt surely kill him; thy hand shall
be first upon him to put him to death, and afterwards the hand of all the
people.
(Deu13:10) And thou shalt stone him to death with stones,
because he hath sought to draw thee away from Jehovah thy God, who brought thee
out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
(Deu13:11) And all Israel shall hear, and fear, and shall
do not more any such wickedness as this is in the midst of thee.
(Isa2:22) Cease ye from man, whose breath is in his
nostrils; for wherein is he to be accounted of?
(Mic7:5) Trust ye not in a neighbor; put ye not
confidence in a friend; keep the doors of thy mouth from her that lieth in thy
bosom.
(Job4:18) Behold, he putteth no trust in his servants;
And his angels he chargeth with folly:
(Job15:15) Behold, he putteth no trust in his holy ones;
Yea, the heavens are not clean in his sight:
(Job25:6) How much less man, that is a worm! And the son
of man, that is a worm!
(Jam4:14) whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow.
What is your life? For ye are a vapor, that appeareth for a little time, and
then vanisheth away.
(Ecc3:18) I said in my heart, (It is) because of the sons
of men, that God may prove them, and that they may see that they themselves are
(but as) beasts.
6 Types of punishments God sends: The four main punishments from God are pestilence, war,
famine, and harm caused by animals
(Eze14:13)
Son of man, when a land sinneth against me by committing a trespass, and I
stretch out my hand upon it, and break the staff of the bread thereof, and send
famine upon it, and cut off from it man and beast;
(Eze14:14)
though these three men, Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, they should deliver
but their own souls by their righteousness, saith the Lord Jehovah.
(Eze14:15)
If I cause evil beasts to pass through the land, and they ravage it, and it be made desolate, so
that no man may pass through because of the beasts;
(Eze14:16)
though these three men were in it, as I live, saith the Lord Jehovah, they
should deliver neither sons nor daughters; they only should be delivered, but
the land should be desolate.
(Eze14:17)
Or if I bring a sword(war) upon that land, and say, Sword, go through
the land; so that I cut off from it man and beast;
(Eze14:18)
though these three men were in it, as I live, saith the Lord Jehovah, they
should deliver neither sons nor daughters, but they only should be delivered
themselves.
(Eze14:19)
Or if I send a pestilence into that land, and pour out my wrath upon
it in blood, to cut off from it man and beast;
(Eze14:20)
though Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, as I live, saith the Lord Jehovah, they
should deliver neither son nor daughter; they should but deliver their own
souls by their righteousness.
(Eze14:21)
For thus saith the Lord Jehovah: How much more when I send my
four sore judgments upon
Jerusalem, the sword(war), and the famine, and the evil
beasts, and the pestilence, to cut off from it man and beast!
(Eze14:22)
Yet, behold, therein shall be left a remnant that shall be carried forth, both
sons and daughters: behold, they shall come forth unto you, and ye shall see
their way and their doings; and ye shall be comforted concerning the evil that
I have brought upon Jerusalem, even concerning all that I have brought upon it.
(Eze14:23)
And they shall comfort you, when ye see their way and their doings; and ye
shall know that I have not done without cause all that I have done in it, saith
the Lord Jehovah.
(Amo4:6) And I
also have given you cleanness of teeth in all your cities, and want of bread in
all your places; yet have ye not returned unto me, saith Jehovah.
(Amo4:7) And I
also have withholden the rain from you, when there were yet three months to the
harvest; and I caused it to rain upon one city, and caused it not to rain upon
another city: one piece was rained upon, and the piece whereupon it rained not
withered.
(Amo4:8) So two
or three cities wandered unto one city to drink water, and were not satisfied:
yet have ye not returned unto me, saith Jehovah.
(Amo4:9) I have
smitten you with blasting and mildew: the multitude of your gardens and your
vineyards and your fig-trees and your olive-trees hath the palmer-worm
devoured: yet have ye not returned unto me, saith Jehovah.
(Amo4:10) I
have sent among you the pestilence after the manner of Egypt: your young men
have I slain with the sword, and have carried away your horses; and I have made
the stench of your camp to come up even into your nostrils: yet have ye not
returned unto me, saith Jehovah.
(Amo4:11) I have overthrown (cities) among
you, as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah, and ye were as a brand plucked
out of the burning: yet have ye not returned unto me, saith Jehovah.
(Deu11:13) And
it shall come to pass, if ye shall hearken diligently unto my commandments
which I command you this day, to love Jehovah your God, and to serve him with
all your heart and with all your soul,
(Deu11:14) that I will give the rain of
your land in its season, the former rain and the latter rain, that thou mayest
gather in thy grain, and thy new wine, and thine oil.
(Deu11:15) And
I will give grass in thy fields for thy cattle, and thou shalt eat and be full.
(Deu11:16) Take
heed to yourselves, lest your heart be deceived, and ye turn aside, and serve
other gods, and worship them;
(Deu11:17) and
the anger of Jehovah be kindled against you, and he shut up the heavens, so
that there shall be no rain, and the land shall not yield its fruit; and ye
perish quickly from off the good land which Jehovah giveth you.
(Num16:23) And
Jehovah spake unto Moses, saying,
(Num16:24)
Speak unto the congregation, saying, Get you up from about the tabernacle of
Korah, Dathan, and Abiram.
(Num16:25) And
Moses rose up and went unto Dathan and Abiram; and the elders of Israel
followed him.
(Num16:26) And
he spake unto the congregation, saying, Depart, I pray you, from the tents of
these wicked men, and touch nothing of theirs, lest ye be consumed in all their
sins.
(Num16:27) So
they gat them up from the tabernacle of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram, on every
side: and Dathan and Abiram came out, and stood at the door of their tents, and
their wives, and their sons, and their little ones.
(Num16:28) And
Moses said, Hereby ye shall know that Jehovah hath sent me to do all these
works; for (I have) not (done them) of mine own mind.
(Num16:29) If
these men die the common death of all men, or if they be visited after the
visitation of all men; then Jehovah hath not sent me.
(Num16:30) But
if Jehovah make a new thing, and the ground open its mouth, and swallow them
up, with all that appertain unto them, and they go down alive into Sheol; then
ye shall understand that these men have despised Jehovah.
(Num16:31) And it came to pass, as he made an
end of speaking all these words, that the ground clave asunder that was under
them;
(Num16:32) and the earth opened its mouth, and
swallowed them up, and their households, and all the men that appertained unto
Korah, and all their goods.
(Num16:33) So they, and all that appertained to
them, went down alive into Sheol: and the earth closed upon them, and they
perished from among the assembly.
(Num16:34) And
all Israel that were round about them fled at the cry of them; for they said,
Lest the earth swallow us up.
(Num16:35) And fire came forth from Jehovah, and devoured
the two hundred and fifty men that offered the incense.
(Eze39:23) And the nations shall know that the house of
Israel went into captivity for their iniquity; because they trespassed against me, and I hid my
face from them: so I gave them into the hand of their adversaries, and they
fell all of them by the sword.
(Eze39:24) According to their uncleanness and according to their
transgressions did I unto them; and I hid my face from them.
(Jer44:22) so that Jehovah could not longer bear, because
of the evil of your doings, and because of the abominations which ye have
committed; therefore is your land become a desolation, and an astonishment,
and a curse, without inhabitant, as it is this day.
(Jer44:23) Because ye have burned incense, and because ye have sinned against
Jehovah, and have not obeyed the voice of Jehovah, nor walked in his law, nor
in his statutes, nor in his testimonies; therefore this evil is happened
unto you, as it is this day.
7 Why man exists in this world: Following the example of Jesus, who is the model of righteous and eternal life, we are to live righteously according to the Bible in order to attain qualifying for eternal life.
(1pe2:20) For
what glory is it, if, when ye sin, and are buffeted (for it), ye shall take it
patiently? but if, when ye do well, and suffer (for it), ye shall take it
patiently, this is acceptable with God.
(1pe2:21) For hereunto were
ye called: because Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, that
ye should follow his steps:
(1co11:1) Be ye imitators of me, even as I also am of Christ.
(1jo2:6) he
that saith he abideth in him ought himself also to walk even as he walked.
(Jon8:55) and
ye have not known him: but I know him; and if I should say, I know him not, I
shall be like unto you, a liar: but I know him, and keep his word.
(1jo5:3) For this is
the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his
commandments are not grievous.
(Jon15:10) If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments,
and abide in his love.
(Jon12:44)
And Jesus cried and said, He that believeth on me, believeth not on me, but on
him that sent me.
(Jon3:16) For God so loved the world, that
he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth on him should not
perish, but have eternal life.
(Jon3:17) For
God sent not the Son into the world to judge the world; but that the world
should be saved through him.
(Jon3:18) He
that believeth on him is not judged: he that believeth not hath been judged
already, because he hath not believed on the name of the only begotten Son of
God.
(Jon3:19) And
this is the judgment, that the light is come into the world, and men loved the
darkness rather than the light; for their works were evil.
(Jon3:20) For
every one that doeth evil hateth the light, and cometh not to the light, lest
his works should be reproved.
(Jon3:21) But
he that doeth the truth(thy word is truth Jon17:17) cometh to the light, that his works may be
made manifest, that they have been wrought in God.
(Rom2:13) for
not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall
be justified:
(Jon17:3) And
this is life eternal, that they should know thee the only true God, and him
whom thou didst send, (even) Jesus Christ.
(1ti2:4) who
would have all men to be saved, and come to the knowledge of the truth.
(Deu5:29) Oh
that there were such a heart in them, that they would fear me, and keep all my
commandments always, that it might be well with them, and with their children
for ever!
(Psa112:1)
Praise ye Jehovah. Blessed is the man that feareth Jehovah, That delighteth
greatly in his commandments.
(Psa112:2) His
seed shall be mighty upon earth: The generation of the upright shall be
blessed.
(Psa112:3) Wealth and riches are in his
house; And his righteousness endureth for ever.
(Deu15:4) Howbeit there shall be no poor with
thee; (for Jehovah will surely bless thee in the land which Jehovah thy God
giveth thee for an inheritance to possess it;)
(Deu15:5) if only thou diligently hearken
unto the voice of Jehovah thy God, to observe to do all this commandment which
I command thee this day.
(Deu15:6) For
Jehovah thy God will bless thee, as he promised thee: and thou shalt lend unto
many nations, but thou shalt not borrow; and thou shalt rule over many nations,
but they shall not rule over thee.
(1ki2:3) and
keep the charge of Jehovah thy God, to walk in his ways, to keep his statutes,
(and) his commandments, and his ordinances, and his testimonies, according to
that which is written in the law of Moses, that thou mayest prosper in all that
thou doest, and whithersoever thou turnest thyself.
(Jos1:7) Only
be strong and very courageous, to observe to do according to all the law, which
Moses my servant commanded thee: turn
not from it to the right hand or to the left, that thou mayest have good
success whithersoever thou goest.
(Jos1:8) This
book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth, but thou shalt meditate
thereon day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is
written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou
shalt have good success.
(Pro8:17) I
love them that love me; And those that seek me diligently shall find me.
(Pro8:18)
Riches and honor are with me; (Yea), durable wealth and righteousness.
(Pro8:19) My
fruit is better than gold, yea, than fine gold; And my revenue than choice
silver.
(Pro8:20) I
walk in the way of righteousness, In the midst of the paths of justice;
(Pro8:21) That I may cause those that love me to inherit
substance, And that I may fill their treasuries.
8. Who rules this world: Jehovah(Yahweh) God
(Psa97:1)
Jehovah reigneth; Let the earth
rejoice; Let the multitude of isles be glad.
(Psa97:2)
Clouds and darkness are round about him: Righteousness
and justice are the foundation of his throne.
(Psa103:19)
Jehovah hath established his throne in the heavens; And his kingdom ruleth over
all.
(2ch20:6) and he said, O Jehovah, the God
of our fathers, art not thou God in heaven? and art not thou ruler over all the kingdoms of the nations? and in thy
hand is power and might, so that none is able to withstand thee.
(Rom3:29)
Or is God (the God) of Jews only? is he not (the God) of Gentiles also? Yea, of
Gentiles also:
(Dan4:25) that
thou shalt be driven from men, and thy dwelling shall be with the beasts of the
field, and thou shalt be made to eat grass as oxen, and shalt be wet with the
dew of heaven, and seven times shall pass over thee; till thou know that the Most High ruleth in the kingdom of men,
and giveth it to whomsoever he will.
(Dan4:26) And
whereas they commanded to leave the stump of the roots of the tree; thy kingdom
shall be sure unto thee, after that thou shalt have known that the heavens do
rule.
(Dan5:18) O thou king, the Most High God gave
Nebuchadnezzar thy father the kingdom, and greatness, and glory, and majesty:
(Dan5:19) and
because of the greatness that he gave him, all the peoples, nations, and
languages trembled and feared before him: whom he would he slew, and whom he
would he kept alive; and whom he would he raised up, and whom he would he put
down.
(Dan5:20) But
when his heart was lifted up, and his spirit was hardened so that he dealt
proudly, he was deposed from his kingly throne, and they took his glory from
him:
(Dan5:21) and
he was driven from the sons of men, and his heart was made like the beasts',
and his dwelling was with the wild asses; he was fed with grass like oxen, and
his body was wet with the dew of heaven; until he knew that the Most High God ruleth in the kingdom of
men, and that he setteth up over it whomsoever he will.
(Jer18:1) The
word which came to Jeremiah from Jehovah, saying,
(Jer18:2)
Arise, and go down to the potter's house, and there I will cause thee to hear
my words.
(Jer18:3) Then
I went down to the potter's house, and, behold, he was making a work on the
wheels.
(Jer18:4) And
when the vessel that he made of the clay was marred in the hand of the potter,
he made it again another vessel, as seemed good to the potter to make it.
(Jer18:5) Then
the word of Jehovah came to me, saying,
(Jer18:6) O
house of Israel, cannot I do with you as this potter? saith Jehovah. Behold, as
the clay in the potter's hand, so are ye in my hand, O house of Israel.
(Jer18:7) At what instant I shall speak
concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to pluck up and to break down
and to destroy it;
(Jer18:8) if that nation, concerning which I
have spoken, turn from their evil, I will repent of the evil that I thought to
do unto them.
(Jer18:9) And at what instant I shall speak
concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to build and to plant it;
(Jer18:10) if they do that which is evil in my sight,
that they obey not my voice, then I will repent of the good, wherewith I said I
would benefit them.
(Deu32:39) See now that I, even I, am he,
And there is no god with me: I kill, and
I make alive; I wound, and I heal; And there is none that can deliver out of my
hand.
(1sa2:6) Jehovah killeth, and maketh alive:
He bringeth down to Sheol, and bringeth up.
(1sa2:7) Jehovah maketh poor, and maketh
rich: He bringeth low, he also lifteth up.
(1sa17:47) and that all this assembly may know that Jehovah saveth not
with sword and spear: for the battle is
Jehovah's, and he will give you into our hand.
(2ch33:8)
neither will I any more remove the foot of Israel from off the land which I
have appointed for your fathers, if only they will observe to do all that I
have commanded them, even all the law and the statutes and the ordinances
(given) by Moses.
(2ch33:9) And
Manasseh seduced Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that they did evil
more than did the nations whom Jehovah destroyed before the children of Israel.
(2ch33:10) And
Jehovah spake to Manasseh, and to his people; but they gave no heed.
(2ch33:11) Wherefore Jehovah brought upon them the
captains of the host of the king of Assyria, who took Manasseh in chains,
and bound him with fetters, and carried him to Babylon.
(2ch33:12) And
when he was in distress, he besought Jehovah his God, and humbled himself
greatly before the God of his fathers.
(2ch33:13) And he prayed unto him; and he
was entreated of him, and heard his supplication, and brought him again to Jerusalem into his kingdom. Then Manasseh knew
that Jehovah he was God.
(2ch14:12) So
Jehovah smote the Ethiopians before Asa, and before Judah; and the Ethiopians
fled.
(2ch15:5) And
in those times there was no peace to him that went out, nor to him that came
in; but great vexations were upon all the inhabitants of the lands.
(2ch15:6) And they were broken in pieces,
nation against nation, and city against city; for God did vex them with all
adversity.
(Jer51:1) Thus saith Jehovah: Behold, I will raise up
against Babylon, and against them that dwell in Leb-kamai, a destroying wind.
(Jer51:11) Make sharp the arrows; hold firm the
shields: Jehovah hath stirred up the spirit of the kings of the Medes;
because his purpose is against Babylon, to destroy it: for it is the vengeance
of Jehovah, the vengeance of his temple.
(Jos11:20) For it was of Jehovah to harden their
hearts, to come against Israel in battle, that he might utterly destroy them,
that they might have no favor, but that he might destroy them, as Jehovah
commanded Moses.
(Deu2:24) Rise ye up, take your journey, and
pass over the valley of the Arnon: behold, I have given into thy hand Sihon the
Amorite, king of Heshbon, and his land; begin to possess it, and contend with
him in battle.
(Deu2:25) This day will I begin to put the dread of
thee and the fear of thee upon the peoples that are under the whole heaven,
who shall hear the report of thee, and shall tremble, and be in anguish because
of thee.
(Deu2:26) And I
sent messengers out of the wilderness of Kedemoth unto Sihon king of Heshbon
with words of peace, saying,
(Deu2:27) Let
me pass through thy land: I will go along by the highway, I will turn neither
unto the right hand nor to the left.
(Deu2:28) Thou
shalt sell me food for money, that I may eat; and give me water for money, that
I may drink: only let me pass through on my feet,
(Deu2:29) as
the children of Esau that dwell in Seir, and the Moabites that dwell in Ar, did
unto me; until I shall pass over the Jordan into the land which Jehovah our God
giveth us.
(Deu2:30) But Sihon king of Heshbon would not
let us pass by him; for Jehovah thy God hardened his spirit, and made his heart
obstinate, that he might deliver him into thy hand, as at this day.
(Deu2:31) And Jehovah said unto me, Behold, I have
begun to deliver up Sihon and his land before thee: begin to possess, that
thou mayest inherit his land.
(Deu2:32) Then
Sihon came out against us, he and all his people, unto battle at Jahaz.
(Deu2:33) And Jehovah our God delivered him up before
us; and we smote him, and his sons, and all his people.
(Deu2:34) And
we took all his cities at that time, and utterly destroyed every inhabited
city, with the women and the little ones; we left none remaining:
(Deu2:35) only
the cattle we took for a prey unto ourselves, with the spoil of the cities
which we had taken.
(Deu2:36) From
Aroer, which is on the edge of the valley of the Arnon, and (from) the city
that is in the valley, even unto Gilead, there was not a city too high for us;
Jehovah our God delivered up all before us:
(Deu2:37) only to the land of the children of Ammon thou
camest not near; all the side of the river Jabbok, and the cities of the
hill-country, and wheresoever Jehovah our God forbade us.
(Jos10:30) and Jehovah delivered it also, and the king
thereof, into the hand of Israel; and he smote it with the edge of the
sword, and all the souls that were therein; he left none remaining in it; and
he did unto the king thereof as he had done unto the king of Jericho.
(Jos10:31) And
Joshua passed from Libnah, and all Israel with him, unto Lachish, and encamped
against it, and fought against it:
(Jos10:32) and Jehovah delivered Lachish into the hand of
Israel; and he took it on the second day, and smote it with the edge of the
sword, and all the souls that were therein, according to all that he had done
to Libnah.
(Jdg6:1) And the children of Israel did that
which was evil in the sight of Jehovah: and Jehovah delivered them into the
hand of Midian seven years.
(Jdg6:2) And
the hand of Midian prevailed against Israel; and because of Midian the children
of Israel made them the dens which are in the mountains, and the caves, and the
strongholds.
(Jdg6:3) And so
it was, when Israel had sown, that the Midianites came up, and the Amalekites,
and the children of the east; they came up against them;
(Jdg6:4) and
they encamped against them, and destroyed the increase of the earth, till thou
come unto Gaza, and left no sustenance in Israel, neither sheep, nor ox, nor
ass.
(Jdg6:5) For
they came up with their cattle and their tents; they came in as locusts for
multitude; both they and their camels were without number: and they came into
the land to destroy it.
(Jdg6:6) And Israel was brought very low
because of Midian; and the children of Israel cried unto Jehovah.
(Jdg13:1) And the
children of Israel again did that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah; and
Jehovah delivered them into the hand of the Philistines forty years.
(2ki13:1) In
the three and twentieth year of Joash the son of Ahaziah, king of Judah,
Jehoahaz the son of Jehu began to reign over Israel in Samaria, (and reigned)
seventeen years.
(2ki13:2) And he did that which was evil in the sight of
Jehovah, and followed the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, wherewith he made
Israel to sin; he departed not therefrom.
(2ki13:3) And the anger of Jehovah was kindled
against Israel, and he delivered them into the hand of Hazael king of Syria,
and into the hand of Benhadad the son of Hazael, continually.
(2ki13:4) And
Jehoahaz besought Jehovah, and Jehovah hearkened unto him; for he saw the
oppression of Israel, how that the king of Syria oppressed them.
(2ki13:5) (And Jehovah gave Israel a
saviour, so that they went out from under the hand of the Syrians; and the
children of Israel dwelt in their tents as beforetime.
(2ki17:19) Also Judah kept not the commandments
of Jehovah their God, but walked in the statutes of Israel which they made.
(2ki17:20) And Jehovah rejected all the seed of
Israel, and afflicted them, and delivered them into the hand of spoilers, until
he had cast them out of his sight.
(2ki17:21) For
he rent Israel from the house of David; and they made Jeroboam the son of Nebat
king: and Jeroboam drove Israel from following Jehovah, and made them sin a
great sin.
(2ki17:22) And
the children of Israel walked in all the sins of Jeroboam which he did; they
departed not from them;
(2ki17:23)
until Jehovah removed Israel out of his sight, as he spake by all his servants
the prophets. So Israel was carried away out of their own land to Assyria unto
this day.
(2ch24:23) And
it came to pass at the end of the year, that the army of the Syrians came up
against him: and they came to Judah and Jerusalem, and destroyed all the
princes of the people from among the people, and sent all the spoil of them
unto the king of Damascus.
(2ch24:24) For the army of the Syrians came with a small company of
men; and Jehovah delivered a very great host into their hand, because they had forsaken Jehovah, the God of their fathers. So they
executed judgment upon Joash.
(2ch36:15) And
Jehovah, the God of their fathers, sent to them by his messengers, rising up
early and sending, because he had compassion on his people, and on his
dwelling-place:
(2ch36:16) but
they mocked the messengers of God, and despised his words, and scoffed at his
prophets, until the wrath of Jehovah arose against his people, till there was
no remedy.
(2ch36:17) Therefore he brought upon them the king of the
Chaldeans, who slew their young men with the sword in the house of
their sanctuary, and had no compassion upon young man or virgin, old man or
hoary-headed: he gave them all into his hand.
(2ch36:18) And
all the vessels of the house of God, great and small, and the treasures of the
house of Jehovah, and the treasures of the king, and of his princes, all these
he brought to Babylon.
(2ch36:19) And
they burnt the house of God, and brake down the wall of Jerusalem, and burnt
all the palaces thereof with fire, and destroyed all the goodly vessels
thereof.
(2ch36:20) And them that had escaped from
the sword carried he away to Babylon; and they were servants to him and his
sons until the reign of the kingdom of Persia:
(Psa106:34)
They did not destroy the peoples, As Jehovah commanded them,
(Psa106:35) But
mingled themselves with the nations, And learned their works,
(Psa106:36) And
served their idols, Which became a snare unto them.
(Psa106:37)
Yea, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto demons,
(Psa106:38) And
shed innocent blood, Even the blood of their sons and of their daughters, Whom
they sacrificed unto the idols of Canaan; And the land was polluted with blood.
(Psa106:39)
Thus were they defiled with their works, And played the harlot in their doings.
(Psa106:40)
Therefore was the wrath of Jehovah kindled against his people, And he abhorred
his inheritance.
(Psa106:41) And
he gave them into the
hand of the nations; And they that hated them ruled over them.
(Psa106:42)
Their enemies also oppressed them, And they were brought into subjection under
their hand.
(Psa106:43) Many times did he deliver
them; But they were rebellious in their counsel, And were brought low in their
iniquity.
(Isa19:4) And I will give over the Egyptians into the hand of a cruel
lord; and a fierce king shall rule over them,
saith the Lord, Jehovah of hosts.
(Isa42:24) Who gave Jacob for a spoil, and Israel to the robbers?
did not Jehovah? he against whom we have sinned, and in
whose ways they would not walk, neither were they obedient unto his law.
(Isa42:25) Therefore he poured upon him
the fierceness of his anger, and the strength of battle; and it set him on fire
round about, yet he knew not; and it burned him, yet he laid it not to heart.
(Exo14:4) And I will harden Pharaoh's heart, and he shall follow after them; and I will get me honor upon Pharaoh,
and upon all his host: and the Egyptians shall know that I am Jehovah. And they
did so.
(Exo10:1) And
Jehovah said unto Moses, Go in unto Pharaoh: for I have hardened his heart, and the heart of his servants, that
I may show these my signs in the midst of them,
(Exo10:2) and
that thou mayest tell in the ears of thy son, and of thy son's son, what things
I have wrought upon Egypt, and my signs which I have done among them; that ye
may know that I am Jehovah.
(Gen35:5) And they journeyed: and a terror of God was upon the cities that were round

on his throne, and all the host of heaven standing by him on his right hand and

thy prophets; and Jehovah hath spoken evil concerning thee.

you this day, to the right hand, or to the left, to go after other gods to
serve them.

shalt not lend to him: he shall be the head, and thou shalt be the tail.
(Deu28:45) And all these curses shall come
upon thee, and shall pursue thee, and overtake thee, till thou be destroyed;
because thou hearkenedst not unto the voice of Jehovah thy God, to keep his
commandments and his statutes which he commanded thee:

sign and for a wonder, and upon thy seed for ever.

shall hear all these statutes, and say, Surely this great nation is a wise and
understanding people.
