  • A Christian cannot be apathetic about the
    salvation of the world. The love of God in him
    will motivate him to seek and save that which
    is lost.

IX. The Kingdom
  • The Kingdom of God includes both His general
    sovereignty over the universe and His particular
    kingship over men who willfully acknowledge Him
    as King. Particularly the Kingdom is the realm of
    salvation into which men enter by trustful,
    childlike commitment to Jesus Christ. Christians
    ought to pray and to labor that the Kingdom may
    come and God's will be done on earth. The full
    consummation of the Kingdom awaits the return of
    Jesus Christ and the end of this age.

X. Last Things
  • God, in His own time and in His own way, will
    bring the world to its appropriate end. According
    to His promise, Jesus Christ will return
    personally and visibly in glory to the earth the
    dead will be raised and Christ will judge all
    men in righteousness. The unrighteous will be
    consigned to Hell, the place of everlasting
    punishment. The righteous in their resurrected
    and glorified bodies will receive their reward
    and will dwell forever in Heaven with the Lord.

Genesis 121-3
  • God Speaks to Abram     (A) 1 Now the LORD had
    said to Abram        "Get out of your country,
           From your family        And from your
    father's house,        To a land that I will
    show you.        2I will make you a great
    nation        I will bless you        And make
    your name great        And you shall be a
    blessing.        3I will bless those who bless
    you,        And I will curse him who curses you
           And in you all the families of the earth
    shall be blessed."

46
Exodus 195-6
  • 5Now therefore, if you will indeed obey My voice
    and keep My covenant, then you shall be a special
    treasure to Me above all people for all the
    earth is Mine.
  • 6And you shall be to Me a kingdom of priests and
    a holy nation.' These are the words which you
    shall speak to the children of Israel."   5Now
    therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed, and
    keep my covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar
    treasure unto me above all people for all the
    earth is mine    6And ye shall be unto me a
    kingdom of priests, and an holy nation. These are
    the words which thou shalt speak unto the
    children of Israel.

47
Isaiah 61-8
  • 1 In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the
    Lord sitting on a throne, high and lifted up, and
    the train of His robe filled the temple. 2Above
    it stood seraphim each one had six wings with
    two he covered his face, with two he covered his
    feet, and with two he flew. 3And one cried to
    another and said        "Holy, holy, holy is
    the LORD of hosts        The whole earth is
    full of His glory!"         4And the posts of
    the door were shaken by the voice of him who
    cried out, and the house was filled with smoke.
        5So I said        "Woe is me, for I am
    undone!        Because I am a man of unclean
    lips,        And I dwell in the midst of a
    people of unclean lips For my eyes have seen the
    King,        The LORD of hosts."

48
Isaiah 61-8
  •     6Then one of the seraphim flew to me, having
    in his hand a live coal which he had taken with
    the tongs from the altar. 7And he touched my
    mouth with it, and said        "Behold, this
    has touched your lips        Your iniquity is
    taken away,        And your sin purged."    
        8Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying
           "Whom shall I send,        And who will
    go for Us?"         Then I said, "Here am I!
    Send me."

49
Matthew 937-38
  • 37Then He said to His disciples, "The harvest
    truly is plentiful, but the laborers are few.
    38Therefore pray the Lord of the harvest to send
    out laborers into His harvest." 

50
Matthew 105-15
  • 7And as you go, preach, saying, "The kingdom of
    heaven is at hand.' 8Heal the sick, cleanse the
    lepers, raise the dead,a cast out demons.
    Freely you have received, freely give. 14And
    whoever will not receive you nor hear your words,
    when you depart from that house or city, shake
    off the dust from your feet. 15Assuredly, I say
    to you, it will be more tolerable for the land of
    Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than
    for that city!

51
Matthew 1318- 30, 37-43
  • 18"Therefore hear The parable of the sower
  • 19When anyone hears the word of the kingdom, and
    does not understand it, then the wicked one comes
    and snatches away what was sown in his heart.
    This is he who received seed by the wayside.
    20But he who received the seed on stony places,
    this is he who hears the word and immediately
    receives it with joy 21yet he has no root in
    himself, but endures only for a while. For when
    tribulation or persecution arises because of the
    word, immediately he stumbles. 22Now he who
    received seed among the thorns is he who hears
    the word, and the cares of this world and the
    deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and he
    becomes unfruitful.

52
Matthew 1318- 30, 37-43
  • 23But he who received seed on the good ground is
    he who hears the word and understands it, who
    indeed bears fruit and produces some a
    hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty."

53
The Parable of the Wheat and the Tares
  •     24Another parable He put forth to them,
    saying "The kingdom of heaven is like a man who
    sowed good seed in his field 25but while men
    slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the
    wheat and went his way. 26But when the grain had
    sprouted and produced a crop, then the tares also
    appeared. 27So the servants of the owner came and
    said to him, "Sir, did you not sow good seed in
    your field? How then does it have tares?' 28He
    said to them, "An enemy has done this.' The
    servants said to him, "Do you want us then to go
    and gather them up?' 29But he said, "No, lest
    while you gather up the tares you also uproot the
    wheat with them. 30Let both grow together until
    the harvest, and at the time of harvest I will
    say to the reapers, "First gather together the
    tares and bind them in bundles to burn them, but
    gather the wheat into my barn.""'

54
The Parable of the Mustard Seed
  •     (B) 31Another parable He put forth to them,
    saying "The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard
    seed, which a man took and sowed in his field,
    32which indeed is the least of all the seeds but
    when it is grown it is greater than the herbs and
    becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come
    and nest in its branches."

55
The Parable of the Leaven
  •     (C) 33Another parable He spoke to them "The
    kingdom of heaven is like leaven, which a woman
    took and hid in three measures of meal till it
    was all leavened."     Prophecy and the
    Parables     34All these things Jesus spoke to
    the multitude in parables and without a parable
    He did not speak to them, 35that it might be
    fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet,
    saying        "I will open My mouth in
    parables        I will utter things kept secret
    from the foundation of the world."b    

56
The Parable of the Tares Explained
  •     36Then Jesus sent the multitude away and went
    into the house. And His disciples came to Him,
    saying, "Explain to us the parable of the tares
    of the field."     37He answered and said to
    them "He who sows the good seed is the Son of
    Man. 38The field is the world, the good seeds are
    the sons of the kingdom, but the tares are the
    sons of the wicked one. 39The enemy who sowed
    them is the devil, the harvest is the end of the
    age, and the reapers are the angels. 40Therefore
    as the tares are gathered and burned in the fire,
    so it will be at the end of this age. 41The Son
    of Man will send out His angels, and they will
    gather out of His kingdom all things that offend,
    and those who practice lawlessness, 42and will
    cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be
    wailing and gnashing of teeth. 43Then the
    righteous will shine forth as the sun in the
    kingdom of their Father. He who has ears to hear,
    let him hear!

57
Matthew 1619
  • 19And I will give you the keys of the kingdom of
    heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will be
    bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth
    will be loosed in heaven."

58
Matthew 229-10
  • 9Therefore go into the highways, and as many as
    you find, invite to the wedding.' 10So those
    servants went out into the highways and gathered
    together all whom they found, both bad and good.
    And the wedding hall was filled with guests.

59
Matthew 2414 (Hasten the Return of Jesus)
  • 14And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached
    in all the world as a witness to all the
    nations, and then the end will come.

60
Matthew 2818-20
  • 18And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, "All
    authority has been given to Me in heaven and on
    earth. 19Go therefore and make disciples of all
    the nations, baptizing them in the name of the
    Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
    20teaching them to observe all things that I have
    commanded you and lo, I am with you always, even
    to the end of the age." Amen.

61
Luke 101-18 The Seventy Sent Out
  •   Sending the Seventy the Good Samaritan    1
    After these things the Lord appointed seventy
    others also,a and sent them two by two before
    His face into every city and place where He
    Himself was about to go. 2Then He said to them,
    "The harvest truly is great, but the laborers are
    few therefore pray the Lord of the harvest to
    send out laborers into His harvest. 3Go your way
    behold, I send you out as lambs among wolves.
    4Carry neither money bag, knapsack, nor sandals
    and greet no one along the road. 5But whatever
    house you enter, first say, "Peace to this
    house.' 6And if a son of peace is there, your
    peace will rest on it if not, it will return to
    you. 7And remain in the same house, eating and
    drinking such things as they give, for the
    laborer is worthy of his wages. Do not go from
    house to house. 8Whatever city you enter, and
    they receive you, eat such things as are set
    before you. 9And heal the sick there, and say to
    them, "The kingdom of God has come near to you.'
    10But whatever city you enter, and they do not
    receive you, go out into its streets and say,
    11"The very dust of your city which clings to
    usb we wipe off against you. Nevertheless know
    this, that the kingdom of God has come near you.'
    12Butc I say to you that it will be more
    tolerable in that Day for Sodom than for that
    city.     Woe to the Impenitent Cities    (A)
    13"Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida!
    For if the mighty works which were done in you
    had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have
    repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and
    ashes. 14But it will be more tolerable for Tyre
    and Sidon at the judgment than for you. 15And
    you, Capernaum, who are exalted to heaven, will
    be brought down to Hades.d

62
Luke 101-16
  • 16He who hears you hears Me, he who rejects you
    rejects Me, and he who rejects Me rejects Him who
    sent Me."
  • The Seventy Return with Joy    17Then the
    seventye returned with joy, saying, "Lord, even
    the demons are subject to us in Your name."    
    18And He said to them, "I saw Satan fall like
    lightning from heaven.

63
Luke 2446-53
  • 46Then He said to them, "Thus it is written, and
    thus it was necessary for the Christ to suffer
    and to risea from the dead the third day,
    47and that repentance and remission of sins
    should be preached in His name to all nations,
    beginning at Jerusalem. 48And you are witnesses
    of these things. 49Behold, I send the Promise of
    My Father upon you but tarry in the city of
    Jerusalemb until you are endued with power
    from on high."
  • The Ascension    (A) 50And He led them out as
    far as Bethany, and He lifted up His hands and
    blessed them. 51Now it came to pass, while He
    blessed them, that He was parted from them and
    carried up into heaven. 52And they worshiped Him,
    and returned to Jerusalem with great joy, 53and
    were continually in the temple praising andc
    blessing God. Amen.

64
John 1411-12
  • 10Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and
    the Father in Me? The words that I speak to you I
    do not speak on My own authority but the Father
    who dwells in Me does the works. 11Believe Me
    that I am in the Father and the Father in Me, or
    else believe Me for the sake of the works
    themselves.     The Answered Prayer    12"Most
    assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me,
    the works that I do he will do also and greater
    works than these he will do, because I go to My
    Father. 13And whatever you ask in My name, that
    I will do, that the Father may be glorified in
    the Son.

65
John 157-8,16
  • 7If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you,
    you will ask what you desire, and it shall be
    done for you. 8By this My Father is glorified,
    that you bear much fruit so you will be My
    disciples.15No longer do I call you servants,
    for a servant does not know what his master is
    doing but I have called you friends, for all
    things that I heard from My Father I have made
    known to you.

66
  • 16You did not choose Me, but I chose you and
    appointed you that you should go and bear fruit,
    and that your fruit should remain, that whatever
    you ask the Father in My name He may give you.
    17These things I command you, that you love one
    another.

67
John 1715
  • 13But now I come to You, and these things I speak
    in the world, that they may have My joy fulfilled
    in themselves. 14I have given them Your word and
    the world has hated them because they are not of
    the world, just as I am not of the world. 15I do
    not pray that You should take them out of the
    world, but that You should keep them from the
    evil one.

68
John 2021
  • 19Then, the same day at evening, being the first
    day of the week, when the doors were shut where
    the disciples were assembled,c for fear of the
    Jews, Jesus came and stood in the midst, and said
    to them, "Peace be with you." 20When He had said
    this, He showed them His hands and His side. Then
    the disciples were glad when they saw the
    Lord.21So Jesus said to them again, "Peace to
    you! As the Father has sent Me, I also send you."
    22And when He had said this, He breathed on
    them, and said to them, "Receive the Holy Spirit.
    23If you forgive the sins of any, they are
    forgiven them if you retain the sins of any,
    they are retained."

69
Acts 18
  • 7And He said to them, "It is not for you to know
    times or seasons which the Father has put in His
    own authority. 8 But you shall receive power
    when the Holy Spirit has come upon you and you
    shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all
    Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth."
        Jesus Ascends to Heaven    (A) 9Now when He
    had spoken these things, while they watched, He
    was taken up, and a cloud received Him out of
    their sight.

Acts 2
  • Acts 2Coming of the Holy Spirit    Peter's
    Sermon the Coming of the Holy Spirit    1 When
    the Day of Pentecost had fully come, they were
    all with one accorda in one place. 2And
    suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a
    rushing mighty wind, and it filled the whole
    house where they were sitting. 3Then there
    appeared to them divided tongues, as of fire, and
    one sat upon each of them. 4And they were all
    filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak
    with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them
    utterance.     The Crowd's Response    5And
    there were dwelling in Jerusalem Jews, devout
    men, from every nation under heaven. 6And when
    this sound occurred, the multitude came together,
    and were confused, because everyone heard them
    speak in his own language. 7Then they were all
    amazed and marveled, saying to one another,
    "Look, are not all these who speak Galileans?
    8And how is it that we hear, each in our own
    language in which we were born? 9Parthians and
    Medes and Elamites, those dwelling in
    Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and
    Asia, 10Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the
    parts of Libya adjoining Cyrene, visitors from
    Rome, both Jews and proselytes, 11Cretans and
    Arabs--we hear them speaking in our own tongues
    the wonderful works of God." 12So they were all
    amazed and perplexed, saying to one another,
    "Whatever could this mean?"     13Others mocking
    said, "They are full of new wine."     Peter's
    Sermon    (A) 14But Peter, standing up with the
    eleven, raised his voice and said to them, "Men
    of Judea and all who dwell in Jerusalem, let this
    be known to you, and heed my words. 15For these
    are not drunk, as you suppose, since it is only
    the third hour of the day. 16But this is what was
    spoken by the prophet Joel        17"And it
    shall come to pass in the last days, says God,
           That I will pour out of My Spirit on all
    flesh        Your sons and your daughters shall
    prophesy,        Your young men shall see
    visions,        Your old men shall dream dreams.
           18And on My menservants and on My
    maidservants        I will pour out My Spirit in
    those days        And they shall prophesy.
           19I will show wonders in heaven above
           And signs in the earth beneath       
    Blood and fire and vapor of smoke.        20The
    sun shall be turned into darkness,        And
    the moon into blood,        Before the coming of
    the great and awesome day of the LORD.       
    21And it shall come to pass        That whoever
    calls on the name of the LORD        Shall be
    saved.'b         22"Men of Israel, hear these
    words Jesus of Nazareth, a Man attested by God
    to you by miracles, wonders, and signs which God
    did through Him in your midst, as you yourselves
    also know-- 23Him, being delivered by the
    determined purpose and foreknowledge of God, you
    have takenc by lawless hands, have crucified,
    and put to death 24whom God raised up, having
    loosed the pains of death, because it was not
    possible that He should be held by it. 25For
    David says concerning Him        "I foresaw the
    LORD always before my face,        For He is at
    my right hand, that I may not be shaken.       
    26Therefore my heart rejoiced, and my tongue was
    glad        Moreover my flesh also will rest in
    hope.        27For You will not leave my soul in
    Hades,        Nor will You allow Your Holy One
    to see corruption.        28You have made known
    to me the ways of life        You will make me
    full of joy in Your presence.'d        
    29"Men and brethren, let me speak freely to you
    of the patriarch David, that he is both dead and
    buried, and his tomb is with us to this day.
    30Therefore, being a prophet, and knowing that
    God had sworn with an oath to him that of the
    fruit of his body, according to the flesh, He
    would raise up the Christ to sit on his
    throne,e 31he, foreseeing this, spoke
    concerning the resurrection of the Christ, that
    His soul was not left in Hades, nor did His flesh
    see corruption. 32This Jesus God has raised up,
    of which we are all witnesses. 33Therefore being
    exalted to the right hand of God, and having
    received from the Father the promise of the Holy
    Spirit, He poured out this which you now see and
    hear.     34"For David did not ascend into the
    heavens, but he says himself        "The LORD
    said to my Lord,        "Sit at My right hand,
           35Till I make Your enemies Your
    footstool."'f         36"Therefore let all
    the house of Israel know assuredly that God has
    made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord
    and Christ."     37Now when they heard this,
    they were cut to the heart, and said to Peter and
    the rest of the apostles, "Men and brethren, what
    shall we do?"     38Then Peter said to them,
    "Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in
    the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of
    sins and you shall receive the gift of the Holy
    Spirit. 39For the promise is to you and to your
    children, and to all who are afar off, as many as
    the Lord our God will call."     A Vital Church
    Grows    40And with many other words he
    testified and exhorted them, saying, "Be saved
    from this perverse generation." 41Then those who
    gladlyg received his word were baptized and
    that day about three thousand souls were added to
    them. 42And they continued steadfastly in the
    apostles' doctrine and fellowship, in the
    breaking of bread, and in prayers. 43Then fear
    came upon every soul, and many wonders and signs
    were done through the apostles. 44Now all who
    believed were together, and had all things in
    common, 45and sold their possessions and goods,
    and divided them among all, as anyone had need.
        46So continuing daily with one accord in the
    temple, and breaking bread from house to house,
    they ate their food with gladness and simplicity
    of heart, 47praising God and having favor with
    all the people. And the Lord added to the
    churchh daily those who were being saved.

Acts 2
  •    1And when the day of Pentecost was fully come,
    they were all with one accord in one place.
       2And suddenly there came a sound from heaven
    as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all
    the house where they were sitting.    3And there
    appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of
    fire, and it sat upon each of them.    4And they
    were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to
    speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them
    utterance.    5And there were dwelling at
    Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of every nation
    under heaven.    6Now when this was noised
    abroad, the multitude came together, and were
    confounded, because that every man heard them
    speak in his own language.    7And they were all
    amazed and marvelled, saying one to another,
    Behold, are not all these which speak Galilaeans?
       8And how hear we every man in our own tongue,
    wherein we were born?    9Parthians, and Medes,
    and Elamites, and the dwellers in Mesopotamia,
    and in Judaea, and Cappadocia, in Pontus, and
    Asia,    10Phrygia, and Pamphylia, in Egypt, and
    in the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and strangers
    of Rome, Jews and proselytes,    11Cretes and
    Arabians, we do hear them speak in our tongues
    the wonderful works of God.    12And they were
    all amazed, and were in doubt, saying one to
    another, What meaneth this?    13Others mocking
    said, These men are full of new wine.    14But
    Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his
    voice, and said unto them, Ye men of Judaea, and
    all ye that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known
    unto you, and hearken to my words    15For
    these are not drunken, as ye suppose, seeing it
    is but the third hour of the day.    16But this
    is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel
       17And it shall come to pass in the last days,
    saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all
    flesh and your sons and your daughters shall
    prophesy, and your young men shall see visions,
    and your old men shall dream dreams    18And on
    my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out
    in those days of my Spirit and they shall
    prophesy    19And I will shew wonders in heaven
    above, and signs in the earth beneath blood, and
    fire, and vapour of smoke    20The sun shall be
    turned into darkness, and the moon into blood,
    before the great and notable day of the Lord
    come    21And it shall come to pass, that
    whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord
    shall be saved.    22Ye men of Israel, hear
    these words Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of
    God among you by miracles and wonders and signs,
    which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye
    yourselves also know    23Him, being delivered
    by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of
    God, ye have taken, and by wicked hands have
    crucified and slain    24Whom God hath raised
    up, having loosed the pains of death because it
    was not possible that he should be holden of it.
       25For David speaketh concerning him, I
    foresaw the Lord always before my face, for he is
    on my right hand, that I should not be moved
       26Therefore did my heart rejoice, and my
    tongue was glad moreover also my flesh shall
    rest in hope    27Because thou wilt not leave
    my soul in hell, neither wilt thou suffer thine
    Holy One to see corruption.    28Thou hast made
    known to me the ways of life thou shalt make me
    full of joy with thy countenance.    29Men and
    brethren, let me freely speak unto you of the
    patriarch David, that he is both dead and buried,
    and his sepulchre is with us unto this day.

72
  •    30Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that
    God had sworn with an oath to him, that of the
    fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, he
    would raise up Christ to sit on his throne
       31He seeing this before spake of the
    resurrection of Christ, that his soul was not
    left in hell, neither his flesh did see
    corruption.    32This Jesus hath God raised up,
    whereof we all are witnesses.

73
  •    33Therefore being by the right hand of God
    exalted, and having received of the Father the
    promise of the Holy Ghost, he hath shed forth
    this, which ye now see and hear.    34For David
    is not ascended into the heavens but he saith
    himself, The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou on
    my right hand,    35Until I make thy foes thy
    footstool.

74
  •    36Therefore let all the house of Israel know
    assuredly, that God hath made the same Jesus,
    whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ.
       37Now when they heard this, they were pricked
    in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the
    rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what
    shall we do?

75
  •    38Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be
    baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus
    Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall
    receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.    39For the
    promise is unto you, and to your children, and to
    all that are afar off, even as many as the LORD
    our God shall call.    40And with many other
    words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save
    yourselves from this untoward generation.
       41Then they that gladly received his word
    were baptized and the same day there were added
    unto them about three thousand souls.

76
  •    42And they continued stedfastly in the
    apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in
    breaking of bread, and in prayers.    43And fear
    came upon every soul and many wonders and signs
    were done by the apostles.    44And all that
    believed were together, and had all things
    common    45And sold their possessions and
    goods, and parted them to all men, as every man
    had need.    46And they, continuing daily with
    one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from
    house to house, did eat their meat with gladness
    and singleness of heart,    47Praising God, and
    having favour with all the people. And the Lord
    added to the church daily such as should be
    saved.Acts 826-40 Christ Is Preached to an
    Ethiopian    (A) 26Now an angel of the Lord
    spoke to Philip, saying, "Arise and go toward the
    south along the road which goes down from
    Jerusalem to Gaza." This is desert. 27So he arose
    and went. And behold, a man of Ethiopia, a eunuch
    of great authority under Candace the queen of the
    Ethiopians, who had charge of all her treasury,
    and had come to Jerusalem to worship, 28was
    returning. And sitting in his chariot, he was
    reading Isaiah the prophet. 29Then the Spirit
    said to Philip, "Go near and overtake this
    chariot."     30So Philip ran to him, and heard
    him reading the prophet Isaiah, and said, "Do you
    understand what you are reading?"     31And he
    said, "How can I, unless someone guides me?" And
    he asked Philip to come up and sit with him.
    32The place in the Scripture which he read was
    this        "He was led as a sheep to the
    slaughter        And as a lamb before its
    shearer is silent,        So He opened not His
    mouth.        33In His humiliation His justice
    was taken away,        And who will declare His
    generation?        For His life is taken from
    the earth."a         34So the eunuch answered
    Philip and said, "I ask you, of whom does the
    prophet say this, of himself or of some other
    man?" 35Then Philip opened his mouth, and
    beginning at this Scripture, preached Jesus to
    him. 36Now as they went down the road, they came
    to some water. And the eunuch said, "See, here is
    water. What hinders me from being baptized?"    
    37Then Philip said, "If you believe with all your
    heart, you may."     And he answered and said,
    "I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of
    God."b     38So he commanded the chariot to
    stand still. And both Philip and the eunuch went
    down into the water, and he baptized him. 39Now
    when they came up out of the water, the Spirit of
    the Lord caught Philip away, so that the eunuch
    saw him no more and he went on his way
    rejoicing. 40But Philip was found at Azotus. And
    passing through, he preached in all the cities
    till he came to Caesarea.  26And the angel of
    the Lord spake unto Philip, saying, Arise, and go
    toward the south unto the way that goeth down
    from Jerusalem unto Gaza, which is desert.
       27And he arose and went and, behold, a man
    of Ethiopia, an eunuch of great authority under
    Candace queen of the Ethiopians, who had the
    charge of all her treasure, and had come to
    Jerusalem for to worship,    28Was returning,
    and sitting in his chariot read Esaias the
    prophet.    29Then the Spirit said unto Philip,
    Go near, and join thyself to this chariot.
       30And Philip ran thither to him, and heard
    him read the prophet Esaias, and said,
    Understandest thou what thou readest?    31And
    he said, How can I, except some man should guide
    me? And he desired Philip that he would come up
    and sit with him.    32The place of the
    scripture which he read was this, He was led as a
    sheep to the slaughter and like a lamb dumb
    before his shearer, so opened he not his mouth
       33In his humiliation his judgment was taken
    away and who shall declare his generation? for
    his life is taken from the earth.    34And the
    eunuch answered Philip, and said, I pray thee, of
    whom speaketh the prophet this? of himself, or of
    some other man?    35Then Philip opened his
    mouth, and began at the same scripture, and
    preached unto him Jesus.    36And as they went
    on their way, they came unto a certain water and
    the eunuch said, See, here is water what doth
    hinder me to be baptized?    37And Philip said,
    If thou believest with all thine heart, thou
    mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that
    Jesus Christ is the Son of God.    38And he
    commanded the chariot to stand still and they
    went down both into the water, both Philip and
    the eunuch and he baptized him.    39And when
    they were come up out of the water, the Spirit of
    the Lord caught away Philip, that the eunuch saw
    him no more and he went on his way rejoicing.
       40But Philip was found at Azotus and passing
    through he preached in all the cities, till he
    came to Caesarea.

77
Acts 1042-48
  • 42And He commanded us to preach to the people,
    and to testify that it is He who was ordained by
    God to be Judge of the living and the dead. 43To
    Him all the prophets witness that, through His
    name, whoever believes in Him will receive
    remission of sins."

78
  •     The Holy Spirit Falls on the Gentiles   
    44While Peter was still speaking these words, the
    Holy Spirit fell upon all those who heard the
    word. 45And those of the circumcision who
    believed were astonished, as many as came with
    Peter, because the gift of the Holy Spirit had
    been poured out on the Gentiles also. 46For they
    heard them speak with tongues and magnify God.
        Then Peter answered, 47"Can anyone forbid
    water, that these should not be baptized who have
    received the Holy Spirit just as we have?" 48And
    he commanded them to be baptized in the name of
    the Lord. Then they asked him to stay a few days.

Acts 132-3
  • Acts 13Paul and Barnabas Are Sent to the
    Gentiles    1 Now in the church that was at
    Antioch there were certain prophets and teachers
    Barnabas, Simeon who was called Niger, Lucius of
    Cyrene, Manaen who had been brought up with Herod
    the tetrarch, and Saul. 2As they ministered to
    the Lord and fasted, the Holy Spirit said, "Now
    separate to Me Barnabas and Saul for the work to
    which I have called them." 3Then, having fasted
    and prayed, and laid hands on them, they sent
    them away.     Preaching in Cyprus    4So,
    being sent out by the Holy Spirit, they went down
    to Seleucia, and from there they sailed to
    Cyprus. 5And when they arrived in Salamis, they
    preached the word of God in the synagogues of the
    Jews. They also had John as their assistant.

80
Romans 1011-13
  • 11For the Scripture says, "Whoever believes on
    Him will not be put to shame."f 12For there is
    no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the
    same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon
    Him. 13For "whoever calls on the name of the LORD
    shall be saved."g

81
    Romans 1014-15
  • Israel Rejects the Gospel    14How then shall
    they call on Him in whom they have not believed?
    And how shall they believe in Him of whom they
    have not heard? And how shall they hear without a
    preacher? 15And how shall they preach unless they
    are sent? As it is written        "How
    beautiful are the feet of those who preach the
    gospel of peace,h        Who bring glad
    tidings of good things!"i

82
    Romans 1016-18
  •     16But they have not all obeyed the gospel.
    For Isaiah says, "LORD, who has believed our
    report?"j 17So then faith comes by hearing, and
    hearing by the word of God.     18But I say,
    have they not heard? Yes indeed        "Their
    sound has gone out to all the earth,        And
    their words to the ends of the world."

    Heirs    1 For this reason I, Paul, the prisoner
    of Christ Jesus for you Gentiles-- 2if indeed you
    have heard of the dispensation of the grace of
    God which was given to me for you, 3how that by
    revelation He made known to me the mystery (as I
    have briefly written already, 4by which, when you
    read, you may understand my knowledge in the
    mystery of Christ), 5which in other ages was not
    made known to the sons of men, as it has now been
    revealed by the Spirit to His holy apostles and
    prophets 6that the Gentiles should be fellow
    heirs, of the same body, and partakers of His
    promise in Christ through the gospel, 7of which I
    became a minister according to the gift of the
    grace of God given to me by the effective working
    of His power.

  • Purpose of the Mystery    8To me, who am less
    than the least of all the saints, this grace was
    given, that I should preach among the Gentiles
    the unsearchable riches of Christ, 9and to make
    all see what is the fellowshipa of the mystery,
    which from the beginning of the ages has been
    hidden in God who created all things through
    Jesus Christb 10to the intent that now the
    manifold wisdom of God might be made known by
    the church to the principalities and powers in
    the heavenly places, 11according to the eternal
    purpose which He accomplished in Christ Jesus
    our Lord,

1 Thessalonians 18
  • 6And you became followers of us and of the Lord,
    having received the word in much affliction, with
    joy of the Holy Spirit, 7so that you became
    examples to all in Macedonia and Achaia who
    believe. 8For from you the word of the Lord has
    sounded forth, not only in Macedonia and Achaia,
    but also in every place. Your faith toward God
    has gone out, so that we do not need to say
    anything. 9For they themselves declare concerning
    us what manner of entry we had to you, and how
    you turned to God from idols to serve the living
    and true God, 10and to wait for His Son from
    heaven, whom He raised from the dead, even Jesus
    who delivers us from the wrath to come.

    dead ata His appearing and His kingdom 2Preach
    the word! Be ready in season and out of season.
    Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering
    and teaching. 3For the time will come when they
    will not endure sound doctrine, but according to
    their own desires, because they have itching
    ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers
    4and they will turn their ears away from the
    truth, and be turned aside to fables. 5But you
    be watchful in all things, endure afflictions,

Hebrews 21-3
  • Do Not Neglect Salvation        1 Therefore we
    must give the more earnest heed to the things we
    have heard, lest we drift away. 2For if the word
    spoken through angels proved steadfast, and every
    transgression and disobedience received a just
    reward, 3how shall we escape if we neglect so
    great a salvation, which at the first began to be
    spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed to us by
    those who heard Him, 4God also bearing witness
    both with signs and wonders, with various
    miracles, and gifts of the Holy Spirit, according
    to His own will?

88
Hebrews 1139-122
  • 32And what more shall I say? For the time would
    fail me to tell of Gideon and Barak and Samson
    and Jephthah, also of David and Samuel and the
    prophets 33who through faith subdued kingdoms,
    worked righteousness, obtained promises, stopped
    the mouths of lions, 34quenched the violence of
    fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of
    weakness were made strong, became valiant in
    battle, turned to flight the armies of the
    aliens. 35Women received their dead raised to
    life again. Others were tortured, not
    accepting deliverance, that they might obtain a
    better resurrection. 36Still others had trial of
    mockings and scourgings, yes, and of chains and
    imprisonment. 37They were stoned, they were sawn
    in two, were tempted,f were slain with the
    sword. They wandered about in sheepskins and
    goatskins, being destitute, afflicted,
    tormented-- 38of whom the world was not worthy.
    They wandered in deserts and mountains, in dens
    and caves of the earth.     39And all these,
    having obtained a good testimony through faith,
    did not receive the promise, 40God having
    provided something better for us, that they
    should not be made perfect apart from us.

    aside every weight, and the sin which so easily
    ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the
    race that is set before us, 2 looking unto Jesus,
    the author and finisher of our faith, who for the
    joy that was set before Him endured the cross,
    despising the shame, and has sat down at the
    right hand of the throne of God.

1 Peter 24-10
  • The Chosen Stone and His Chosen People
  •     4Coming to Him as to a living stone, rejected
    indeed by men, but chosen by God and precious,
    5you also, as living stones, are being built up a
    spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up
    spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through
    Jesus Christ. 6Therefore it is also contained in
    the Scripture,        "Behold, I lay in Zion
           A chief cornerstone, elect, precious,
           And he who believes on Him will by no
    means be put to shame."b         7Therefore,
    to you who believe, He is precious but to those
    who are disobedient,c        "The stone which
    the builders rejected        Has become the
    chief cornerstone,"d         8and        "A
    stone of stumbling        And a rock of
    offense."e         They stumble, being
    disobedient to the word, to which they also were
    appointed.

The Church in Gods Program
  •     9But you are a chosen generation, a royal
    priesthood, a holy nation, His own special
    people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him
    who called you out of darkness into His marvelous
    light 10who once were not a people but are now
    the people of God, who had not obtained mercy
    but now have obtained mercy.   
  • Living Before the World    11Beloved, I beg you
    as sojourners and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly
    lusts which war against the soul, 12having your
    conduct honorable among the Gentiles, that when
    they speak against you as evildoers, they may, by
    your good works which they observe, glorify God
    in the day of visitation.

92
1 Peter 315
  • But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts and
    be ready always to give an answer to every
    man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is
    in you with meekness and fear
