Isaiah 55:11 NAB So shall my word be that goes forth from my mouth; It shall not return to me void, but shall do my will, achieving the end for which I sent it.   2 Timothy 3:16-17 NAB All Scripture is inspired by God. and is useful for teaching, for refutation, for correction, and for training in righteousness, so that one who belongs to God may be competent, equipped for every good work.   2 Peter 1:19-21 NAB Moreover, we possess the prophetic message that is altogether reliable. You will do well to be attentive to it, as to a lamp shinning in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts. Know this first of all, that there is no prophesy of scripture that is a matter of personal interpretation, for no prophesy ever came through human will; but rather human beings moved by the holy Spirit spoken under the influence of God.   How to hear and understand the Gospel    VII: The Lord's Speech   Job 38:1-2 Then the LORD addresses Job out of the storm and said: Who is this that obscures divine plans with words of ignorance?   Job 40:6-7 Then the LORD addresses Job out of the storm and said: Gird up your loins now, like a man. I will question you, and you tell me the answers!   Job 42:3-7 (no Verse 4 given) I have dealt with great things that I do not understand; things too wonderful for me, which I cannot know. I had heard of you by word of mouth, but now my eye has seen you. Therefore I disown what I have said, and repent in dust and ashes.   VIII: Epilogue   Job's Restoration And it came to pass after the LORD had spoken these words to Job, that the LORD said to Eliphaz the Temanite, "I am angry with you and your two friends; for you have not spoken rightly concerning me, as has my servant Job.   Romans 10:14-17 But how can they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how can they believe in him of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone to preach? And how can people preach unless they are sent? As it is written, "How beautiful are the feet of those who bring  [the] good news!" But not everyone has heeded the good news; for Isaiah says, "Lord, who has believed what was heard from us?" Thus faith comes from what is heard, and what is heard comes through the word of Christ.   Acts 26:17-18 I shall deliver you from this people and from the Gentiles to whom I send you, to open their eyes that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, so  that they may obtain forgiveness of sins and an inheritance among those who have been consecrated by faith in me.'   Romans 15:4-7 For whatever was written previously was written for our instruction, that by endurance and by the encouragement of the scriptures we might have hope. May the God of endurance and encouragement grant you to think in harmony with one another, in keeping with Christ Jesus, that with one accord you may with one voice glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.   God's Fidelity and Mercy Welcome one another, then, as Christ welcomed you, for the glory of God.
