Jeremiah 25:29
29For behold, aI begin to work disaster at the city that is called by my name, and shall you go unpunished? You shall not go unpunished, bfor I am summoning a sword against all the inhabitants of the earth, declares the Lord of hosts.’Jeremiah 49:12
12For thus says the Lord: c“If those who did not deserve to drink the cup must drink it, dwill you go unpunished? You shall not go unpunished, but you must drink.Romans 8:32
32 eHe who did not spare his own Son but fgave him up for us all, how will he not also with him graciously give us all things?Romans 11:17
17But if gsome of the branches were broken off, and you, halthough a wild olive shoot, were grafted in among the others and now share in the nourishing root ▼▼Greek root of richness; some manuscripts richness
of the olive tree, Romans 11:19
19Then you will say, “Branches were broken off so that I might be grafted in.”1 Corinthians 10:1-12
Warning Against Idolatry
1For I do not want you to be unaware, brothers, ▼▼Or brothers and sisters
that our fathers were all under kthe cloud, and all lpassed through the sea, 2and all were baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea, 3and mall ate the same nspiritual food, 4and oall drank the same spiritual drink. For they drank from the spiritual Rock that followed them, and the Rock was Christ. 5Nevertheless, with most of them God was not pleased, for pthey were overthrown ▼▼Or were laid low
in the wilderness. 6Now these things took place as examples for us, that we might not desire evil as rthey did. 7 sDo not be idolaters tas some of them were; as it is written, u“The people sat down to eat and drink and rose up to play.” 8 vWe must not indulge in sexual immorality was some of them did, and xtwenty-three thousand fell in a single day. 9We must not put Christ ▼
▼Some manuscripts the Lord
to the test, zas some of them did and aawere destroyed by serpents, 10nor grumble, abas some of them did and acwere destroyed by adthe Destroyer. 11Now these things happened to them as an example, but aethey were written down for our instruction, afon whom the end of the ages has come. 12Therefore aglet anyone who thinks that he stands take heed lest he fall. 2 Peter 2:4-9
4For if God did not spare ahangels when they sinned, but aicast them into hell ▼▼Greek Tartarus
and committed them to chains ▼▼Some manuscripts pits
of gloomy darkness alto be kept until the judgment; 5if he did not spare the ancient world, but ampreserved Noah, a herald of righteousness, with seven others, when he brought ana flood upon the world of the ungodly; 6if by aoturning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah to ashes he condemned them to extinction, apmaking them an example of aqwhat is going to happen to the ungodly; ▼▼Some manuscripts an example to those who were to be ungodly
7and asif he rescued righteous Lot, greatly distressed by the sensual conduct of the wicked 8(for as that righteous man lived among them day after day, athe was tormenting his righteous soul over their lawless deeds that he saw and heard); 9then authe Lord knows how to rescue the godly from trials, ▼▼Or temptations
and to keep the unrighteous under punishment until the day of judgment, Jude 5
5Now I want awto remind you, although you once fully knew it, that axJesus, who saved ▼▼Some manuscripts although you fully knew it, that the Lord who once saved
a people out of the land of Egypt, azafterward destroyed those who did not believe.
