Isaiah 28:15-18 AMP

15 Because you have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with Sheol (the place of the dead) we have an agreement--when the overflowing scourge passes through, it will not come to us, for we have made lies our refuge, and in falsehood we have taken shelter. 16 Therefore thus says the Lord God, Behold, I am laying in Zion for a foundation a Stone, a tested Stone, a precious Cornerstone of sure foundation; he who believes (trusts in, relies on, and adheres to that Stone) will not be ashamed or give way or hasten away [in sudden panic]. 17 I will make justice the measuring line and righteousness the plummet; and hail will sweep away the refuge of lies, and waters will overwhelm the hiding place (the shelter). 18 And your covenant with death shall be annulled, and your agreement with Sheol (the place of the dead) shall not stand; when the overwhelming scourge passes through, then you will be trodden down by it.

MYSTERY / MYSTERIES


The mysteries in the Bible are something we all need to understand. There are twenty-two (22) listings under mystery and five (5) under mysteries making a total of twenty-seven (27) texts to do with mysteries. Most of the New Testament is written in Greek. Revelation is written in Hebrew. Interestingly, throughout these mysteries Hebrew is interspersed. Three (3) of the mysteries are found in the gospels and four (4) of the mysteries are found in Revelation leaving the remaining twenty (20) to be found in Paul's writings. Paul was a Gentile and as you study and find the answers to these mysteries keep in mind these mysteries refer to the Gentiles. Each mystery has an absolute astounding relationship to the Hebrew alphabet. The mysteries in the Bible are in Hebrew alphabetical order with each text giving the description of the letter. Remember each letter of the Hebrew alphabet has a distinct meaning and numerical value. Psalm 119 is divided into twenty-two (22) sections with the Hebrew alphabet in order.

John 3:16-18 AMP

16 For God so greatly loved and dearly prized the world that He [even] gave up His only begotten (unique) Son, so that whoever believes in (trusts in, clings to, relies on) Him shall not perish (come to destruction, be lost) but have eternal (everlasting) life. 17 For God did not send the Son into the world in order to judge (to reject, to condemn, to pass sentence on) the world, but that the world might find salvation and be made safe and sound through Him. 18 He who believes in Him [who clings to, trusts in, relies on Him] is not judged [he who trusts in Him never comes up for judgment; for him there is no rejection, no condemnation--he incurs no damnation]; but he who does not believe (cleave to, rely on, trust in Him) is judged already [he has already been convicted and has already received his sentence] because he has not believed in and trusted in the name of the only begotten Son of God. [He is condemned for refusing to let his trust rest in Christ’s name.]
