BE
OF GOOD CHEER!
THE END JUSTIFIES THE MEANS:
Isaiah 11/1hru
5
1. And there shall come
forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch
shall grow
out of his roots:
2. And the spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him,
the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of
counsel
and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of
the LORD;
3. And shall make him of quick understanding in the
fear of the LORD: and he shall not judge after the
sight of
his eyes, neither reprove after the hearing of his
ears:
4. But with righteousness shall he judge the poor,
and reprove with equity for the meek of the earth:
and he shall
smite the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with
the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked.
5. And righteousness shall be the girdle of his
loins, and faithfulness the girdle of his reins.
LUKE 17/33
33. Whosoever shall seek to
save his life shall lose it; and whosoever shall lose
his
life shall preserve it.
LUKE 19/19
10. For the Son of man is
come to seek and to save that which was
lost.
MATTHEW 11/28
& 28
28. Come unto me, all ye
that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you
rest.
29. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am
meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto
your
souls.
REVELATION
Chapter 19 THROUGH CHAPTER 22
1. And after these things I
heard a great voice of much people in heaven, saying,
Alleluia;
Salvation, and glory, and honour, and power, unto the
Lord our God:
2. For true and righteous are his judgments: for he
hath judged the great whore, which did corrupt the
earth with
her fornication, and hath avenged the blood of his
servants at her hand.
3. And again they said, Alleluia. And her smoke rose
up for ever and ever.
4. And the four and twenty elders and the four beasts
fell down and worshipped God that sat on the throne,
saying,
Amen; Alleluia.
5. And a voice came out of the throne, saying, Praise
our God, all ye his servants, and ye that fear him,
both
small and great.
6. And I heard as it were the voice of a great
multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as
the voice of
mighty thunderings, saying, Alleluia: for the Lord
God omnipotent reigneth.
7. Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to
him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his
wife hath
made herself ready.
8. And to her was granted that she should be arrayed
in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is
the
righteousness of saints.
9. And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they
which are called unto the marriage supper of the
Lamb. And he
saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God.
10. And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he
said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy
fellowservant, and
of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus:
worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit
of prophecy.
11. And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white
horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful
and True, and
in righteousness he doth judge and make war.
12. His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head
were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no
man
knew, but he himself.
13. And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in
blood: and his name is called The Word of God.
14. And the armies which were in heaven followed him
upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and
clean.
15. And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that
with it he should smite the nations: and he shall
rule them
with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of
the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.
16. And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a
name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.
17. And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he
cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that
fly in
the midst of heaven, Come and gather yourselves
together unto the supper of the great God;
18. That ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh
of captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the
flesh of
horses, and of them that sit on them, and the flesh
of all men, both free and bond, both small and
great.
19. And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth,
and their armies, gathered together to make war
against him
that sat on the horse, and against his army.
20. And the beast was taken, and with him the false
prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which
he deceived
them that had received the mark of the beast, and
them that worshipped his image. These both were cast
alive into
a lake of fire burning with brimstone.
21..And the remnant were slain with the sword of him
that sat upon the horse, which sword proceeded out of
his
mouth: and all the fowls were filled with their
flesh.
Chapter 20
1. And I saw an angel come
down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless
pit and
a great chain in his hand.
2. And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent,
which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a
thousand years,
3. And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him
up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive
the nations
no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled:
and after that he must be loosed a little season.
4. And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and
judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of
them that
were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the
word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast,
neither
his image, neither had received his mark upon their
foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and
reigned with
Christ a thousand years.
5. But the rest of the dead lived not again until the
thousand years were finished. This is the first
resurrection.
6. Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first
resurrection: on such the second death hath no power,
but
they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall
reign with him a thousand years.
7. And when the thousand years are expired, Satan
shall be loosed out of his prison,
8. And shall go out to deceive the nations which are
in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to
gather
them together to battle: the number of whom is as the
sand of the sea.
9. And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and
compassed the camp of the saints about, and the
beloved city:
and fire came down from God out of heaven, and
devoured them.
10. And the devil that deceived them was cast into
the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and
the false
prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for
ever and ever.
11. And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat
on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled
away;
and there was found no place for them.
12. And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before
God; and the books were opened: and another book was
opened,
which is the book of life: and the dead were judged
out of those things which were written in the books,
according
to their works.
13. And the sea gave up the dead which were in it;
and death and hell delivered up the dead which were
in them:
and they were judged every man according to their
works.
14. And death and hell were cast into the lake of
fire. This is the second death.
15. And whosoever was not found written in the book
of life was cast into the lake of fire.
Chapter 21
1. And I saw a new heaven
and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first
earth were
passed away; and there was no more sea.
2. And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem,
coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a
bride adorned
for her husband.
3. And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying,
Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he
will dwell
with them, and they shall be his people, and God
himself shall be with them, and be their God.
4. And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes;
and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor
crying,
neither shall there be any more pain: for the former
things are passed away.
5. And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I
make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for
these words
are true and faithful.
6. And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and
Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto
him that
is athirst of the fountain of the water of life
freely.
7. He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I
will be his God, and he shall be my son. 8But the
fearful,
and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers,
and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and
all liars,
shall have their part in the lake which burneth with
fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
9. And there came unto me one of the seven angels
which had the seven vials full of the seven last
plagues, and
talked with me, saying, Come hither, I will shew thee
the bride, the Lamb's wife.
10. And he carried me away in the spirit to a great
and high mountain, and shewed me that great city, the
holy
Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God,
11. Having the glory of God: and her light was like
unto a stone most precious, even like a jasper stone,
clear
as crystal;
12. And had a wall great and high, and had twelve
gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and names
written thereon,
which are the names of the twelve tribes of the
children of Israel:
13. On the east three gates; on the north three
gates; on the south three gates; and on the west
three gates.
14. And the wall of the city had twelve foundations,
and in them the names of the twelve apostles of the
Lamb.
15. And he that talked with me had a golden reed to
measure the city, and the gates thereof, and the wall
thereof.
16. And the city lieth foursquare, and the length is
as large as the breadth: and he measured the city
with the
reed, twelve thousand furlongs. The length and the
breadth and the height of it are equal.
17. And he measured the wall thereof, an hundred and
forty and four cubits, according to the measure of a
man,
that is, of the angel.
18. And the building of the wall of it was of jasper:
and the city was pure gold, like unto clear
glass.
19. And the foundations of the wall of the city were
garnished with all manner of precious stones. The
first foundation
was jasper; the second, sapphire; the third, a
chalcedony; the fourth, an emerald;
20. The fifth, sardonyx; the sixth, sardius; the
seventh, chrysolite; the eighth, beryl; the ninth, a
topaz; the
tenth, a chrysoprasus; the eleventh, a jacinth; the
twelfth, an amethyst.
21. And the twelve gates were twelve pearls; every
several gate was of one pearl: and the street of the
city was
pure gold, as it were transparent glass.
22. And I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God
Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it.
23. And the city had no need of the sun, neither of
the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did
lighten
it, and the Lamb is the light thereof.
24. And the nations of them which are saved shall
walk in the light of it: and the kings of the earth
do bring
their glory and honour into it.
25. And the gates of it shall not be shut at all by
day: for there shall be no night there.
26. And they shall bring the glory and honour of the
nations into it.
27. And there shall in no wise enter into it any
thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh
abomination, or
maketh a lie: but they which are written in the
Lamb's book of life.
Chapter 22
1. And he shewed me a pure
river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding
out of
the throne of God and of the Lamb. 2. In the midst of
the street of it, and on either side of the river,
was there
the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits,
and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of
the
tree were for the healing of the nations.
3. And there shall be no more curse: but the throne
of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his
servants shall
serve him:
4. And they shall see his face; and his name shall be
in their foreheads.
5. And there shall be no night there; and they need
no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God
giveth
them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever.
6. And he said unto me, These sayings are faithful
and true: and the Lord God of the holy prophets sent
his angel
to shew unto his servants the things which must
shortly be done.
7. Behold, I come quickly: blessed is he that keepeth
the sayings of the prophecy of this book
8. And I John saw these things, and heard them. And
when I had heard and seen, I fell down to worship
before the
feet of the angel which shewed me these things.
9. Then saith he unto me, See thou do it not: for I
am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren the
prophets, and
of them which keep the sayings of this book: worship
God.
10. And he saith unto me, Seal not the sayings of the
prophecy of this book: for the time is at hand.
11. He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and
he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he
that is
righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is
holy, let him be holy still.
12. And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is
with me, to give every man according as his work
shall be.
13. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end,
the first and the last.
14. Blessed are they that do his commandments, that
they may have right to the tree of life, and may
enter in through
the gates into the city.
15. For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and
whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and
whosoever loveth and
maketh a lie.
16. I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you
these things in the churches. I am the root and the
offspring
of David, and the bright and morning star.
17. And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let
him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is
athirst come.
And whosoever will, let him take the water of life
freely.
18. For I testify unto every man that heareth the
words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall
add unto
these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that
are written in this book:
19. And if any man shall take away from the words of
the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his
part out
of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and
from the things which are written in this book.
20. He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I
come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.
21. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you
all.
Amen
