A Shaking Taking Place; Yes, Before a Global Quaking
A Shaking Taking Place; Yes, Before a Global Quaking
"Long ago
God spoke to our forefathers
by means of the prophets
on many occasions
and in many ways.
Now at the end of these days
he has spoken to us by means of a Son,
whom he appointed heir of all things,
and through whom he made the systems of things.
He is the reflection of God’s glory
and the exact representation of his very being,
and he sustains all things by the word of his power.
And after he had made a purification for our sins,
he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high.
So he has become better than the angels
to the extent that he has inherited
a name
more excellent than theirs."
"When he (Jehovah) again brings his Firstborn into the inhabited earth, he says:
“And let all of God’s angels
do obeisance to him.”
"About the Son, he says:
“God is your throne forever and ever,
and the scepter of your Kingdom
is the scepter of uprightness.
You loved righteousness,
and you hated lawlessness.
That is why God, your God, anointed you with the oil of exultation more than your companions.” Heb. 1:1-4, 6, 8, 9.
"So, then..., let us also throw off every weight and the sin that easily entangles us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us,
as we look intently at the Chief Agent and Perfecter of our faith, Jesus.
For the joy that was set before him he endured a torture stake, despising shame, and" had "sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
Indeed, consider closely the one who has endured such hostile speech from sinners
against their own interests,
so that you may not get tired and give up."
"Our human fathers used to discipline us,
and we gave them respect.
Should we not more readily submit ourselves to the Father of our spiritual life and live?
"Therefore, strengthen the hands that hang down and the feeble knees, and keep making straight paths for your feet".
"Pursue peace with all people
and the sanctification without which no man will see the Lord.
Carefully watch that no one fails to obtain the undeserved kindness of God, so that no poisonous root springs up to cause trouble and many are defiled by it;
and watch that among you there is no one who is sexually immoral nor anyone who does not appreciate sacred things,
like Eʹsau, who gave up his rights as firstborn in exchange for one meal".
"You have approached a Mount Zion
and a city of the living God, heavenly Jerusalem,
and myriads of angels in general assembly, and the congregation of the firstborn who have been enrolled in the heavens,
and God the Judge of all,
and the spiritual lives of righteous ones who have been made perfect,
and Jesus the mediator of a new covenant,...
See that you do not refuse to listen to the one who is speaking.
For if those who refused to listen to the one giving divine warning on earth did not escape,
how much more will we not escape if we turn away from him who speaks from the heavens!
"Therefore,... let us continue to receive undeserved kindness, through which we may acceptably offer God sacred service with godly fear and awe.
For our God is a consuming fire." Heb. 12:1-3, 9, 12, 13-16, 22-25, 28, 29.
“For this is what Jehovah of armies says,
‘Yet once more—in a little while—and I will shake the heavens and the earth and the sea and the dry land.’
“‘And I will shake all the nations,
and the precious things of all the nations will come in;
and I will fill this house with glory,’ says Jehovah of armies." Hag. 2:6, 7.
***
"In the final part of the days,
The mountain of the house of Jehovah
Will become firmly established
above the top of the mountains,
And it will be raised up above the hills,
And to it
all the nations will stream." Isa. 2:2.
***
So: "Honor Jehovah with your valuable things,
With the firstfruits of all your produce,
Then your storehouses will be completely filled,
And your vats will overflow with new wine." Prov. 2:2.
"‘For the seed of peace will be sown;
the vine will produce its fruit and the earth its yield,
and the heavens will give their dew;
and I will cause the remaining ones of this people
to inherit all these things." Zech. 8:12.
"For any nation and any kingdom
that will not serve you
will perish,
And the nations will be utterly devastated." Isa. 60:12.
***
"Do not be afraid,
for I am with you.
Do not be anxious,
for I am your God.
I will fortify you,
yes, I will help you,
I will really hold on to you
with my right hand of righteousness.’
Look! All those getting enraged against you
will be put to shame and humiliated.
Those who fight with you
will be brought to nothing and perish.
You will search for men who struggle with you,
but you will not find them;
The men at war with you
will become as something nonexistent,
as nothing at all.
For I, Jehovah your God, am grasping your right hand,
The One saying to you,
‘Do not be afraid. I will help you.'"
