Always and Forever

From the Epistle to the Hebrews,
in the New Testament of the Holy Bible:

Remember them which have the rule over you, who have spoken unto you the word of God: whose faith follow, considering the end of their conversation. Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever. Be not carried about with divers and strange doctrines. For it is a good thing that the heart be established with grace; not with meats, which have not profited them that have been occupied therein. We have an altar, whereof they have no right to eat which serve the tabernacle. For the bodies of those beasts, whose blood is brought into the sanctuary by the high priest for sin, are burned without the camp. Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people with his own blood, suffered without the gate. Let us go forth therefore unto him without the camp, bearing his reproach. For here have we no continuing city, but we seek one to come. By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name. But to do good and to communicate forget not: for with such sacrifices God is well pleased. Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit yourselves: for they watch for your souls, as they must give account, that they may do it with joy, and not with grief: for that is unprofitable for you.-Hebrews 13:7-17***The divinely inspired Scriptures of the Holy Bible reveal that sin and death came to mankind by Adam, after the deception that first involved Adam's wife Eve. Resurrection, the raising up of the dead, came by Jesus the Christ, the Son of God. After the Lord God created the heavens and the earth, the Lord God created Adam, the 1st man. The Lord God formed Adam from the dust of the ground, and the Lord God made Adam's wife Eve, the mother of all living, after take a part out of Adam. Jesus, the Word, was in heaven with his Father in the beginning, and through the Word came everything into existence. Over 4,000 years after Seth was born to Adam and Eve, the Word became flesh. Jesus, the Word, was conceived of the Holy Spirit in the womb of Mary, a virgin, and Jesus was born into the tribe of Judah to Mary and her husband Joseph when Mary was a virgin. Judah, Joseph and Mary were descendants of Seth's great-great-great-grandson Enoch, Enoch's great-grandson Noah the ark builder, Noah's son Shem, Shem's son Arphaxad, Arphaxad's great-great-great-great-great-grandson Terah, Terah's children Abraham (Abram the Hebrew) and Sarah (Sarai), their son Isaac and his wife Rebekah, and Isaac and Rebekah's youngest fraternal twin son Jacob (Israel). Jesus came from heaven to serve, and to call sinners, all people, since everyone sins, to repentance. Jesus came to seek and save that which has been lost, and give his life willingly as a ransom, providing the only way for anyone to have eternal life, to be reconciled to the Lord God and not die in their sins. Less than 33 1/2 years after Jesus was born to Joseph and Mary, Jesus was betrayed by Judas Iscariot, the disciple and apostle, and Jesus was arrested, crucified outside of Jerusalem, buried in a tomb, resurrected, seen by over 500 people, and returned to heaven. Over 1,400 years before Jesus was born, Miriam and her younger brothers Aaron and Moses were born into the tribe of Jacob's 3rd born son Levi. When Moses was 80 years old and Aaron was 83, the Lord God sent them to speak to the Israelite elders and Pharaoh, the king of Egypt. After the Lord God brought the 10th and final plague upon Pharaoh and Egypt, Moses and Aaron led the Israelites, and those with them, away from Egypt, across the divinely parted Red Sea, and into the desert wilderness of Shur. In the desert wilderness of Sinai, in the region of Mount Sinai, the Israelites heard the voice of the Lord God proclaim the Ten Commandments to them, and the Lord God began giving Moses judgments, statutes and laws for the Israelites. Aaron, and Aaron's sons and the sons born to their descendants were to be the only Israelites to serve the Lord God as priests. Specific commands were to be followed by the priests, leaders and other Israelites in regards to sin, offerings, animals, blood, and the animal carcasses that were to be taken outside any region wherein the Israelites were camped.-Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus 4:1-35, Numbers 20:1-29, 27:12-23, Deuteronomy 31:1-30, 32:44-52, 34:1-12, Joshua 1:1-4:24, 1 Chronicles 1:1-34, 2:1-17, 3:1-24, 6:1-81, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts 1:1-26, Romans 5:1-21, 1 Corinthians 15:1-58, 2 Corinthians 5:1-21, Colossians 1:1-29, 1 Timothy 2:1-3:16, Hebrews, 1 John 1:1-10
