I just wanted to post this one again. So good!

 

[DragonFox91]

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!

II Corinthians 5

 

[DragonFox91]

From the other thread.

Isaiah 65!
I love OT prophecies. Anyone says that the God of the OT is different from the NT is kidding themselves. The God of the NT is ALL OVER the OT!

“See, I will create
new heavens and a new earth.
The former things will not be remembered,
nor will they come to mind.
But be glad and rejoice forever
in what I will create,
for I will create Jerusalem to be a delight
and its people a joy.
I will rejoice over Jerusalem
and take delight in my people;
the sound of weeping and of crying
will be heard in it no more.

“Never again will there be in it
an infant who lives but a few days,
or an old man who does not live out his years;
the one who dies at a hundred
will be thought a mere child;
the one who fails to reach[a] a hundred
will be considered accursed.
They will build houses and dwell in them;
they will plant vineyards and eat their fruit.
No longer will they build houses and others live in them,
or plant and others eat.
For as the days of a tree,
so will be the days of my people;
my chosen ones will long enjoy
the work of their hands.

They will not labor in vain,
nor will they bear children doomed to misfortune;
for they will be a people blessed by the Lord,
they and their descendants with them.
Before they call I will answer;
while they are still speaking I will hear."

 

[DragonFox91]

You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.
Psalm 23

(you always hear the 1st few verses, usually in things teasing Christians, but those last 2 are pretty beautiful too if you ask me)

 

[DragonFox91]

Psalm 51
"Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me.

Do not cast me from your presence or take your Holy Spirit from me. Restore to me the joy of your salvation and grant me a willing spirit, to sustain me.

You do not delight in sacrifice, or I would bring it; you do not take pleasure in burnt offerings. My sacrifice, O God, is a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart you, God, will not despise."

Wow! Psalm 51 is BEAUTIFUL!!!

"For I desire mercy, not sacrifice, and acknowledgment of God rather than burnt offerings"
Hosea 6

I was reviewing previous posts. So in Hosea & Psalms BOTH, God says it's not the sacrifices he's really after. Interesting!!!
