Romans 6:23.
The wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Isaiah 44:24
'Thus says the Lord, your Redeemer, who formed you from the womb: “I am the Lord, who made all things, who alone stretched out the heavens, who spread out the earth by myself'
There cannot be many who sinned more grievously against our Lord Jesus, than did Paul, before salvation.
Genesis 11:4
Then they said, “Come, let us build ourselves a city and a tower with its top in the heavens, and let us make a name for ourselves, lest we be dispersed over the face of the whole earth.”
Acts 17:30-31
The times of ignorance God overlooked, but now he commands all people everywhere to repent, because he has fixed a day on which he will judge the world in righteousness by a man whom he has appointed; and of this he has given assurance to all by raising him from the dead.
Christ's ressurection from the dead assures us of the truth of God's promise of righteous judgment for those who repent and believe. Our previous pagan ignorance, once overlooked by God, will no longer protect us.
Genesis 1:1-2
Whatever you believe about the creation account, you have to agree that this is an utterly beautiful and profound opening to the Old Testament. I personally believe in the plain literal, six-day creation. Its depth and insight still shocks me.
Acts 4:11-12
He is the stone which was rejected by you, the builders, but which became the chief corner stone.
And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men by which we must be saved.
Acts 13:41
Luke quotes The Lord's answer to Habakkuk (Hab 1:5-8) 'Look among the nations, and see; wonder and be astounded. For I am doing a work in your days that you you would not believe if told.'
Those who do not 'get' The Gospel, will perish.
