Christian's Handbook 5

Handbook 5 encapsulates the "summing up" of all things in Christ Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith.

The Springing up of God's Righteous Judgments

Handbook 5: Article 30 - Making Full The Word of God

"...(we) have come to Mount Zion and to the city of God, the heavenly Jerusalem... and to God, the judge of all..."

Hebrews 12:22, 23

"...for all the nations will come and worship before Thee,
For Thy righteous acts (or judgments) have been revealed."

Revelation 15:4

The Revealing of God's Righteous Judgment

"...now He has promised, 'Yet once more I will shake not only the earth, but also the heaven.' And this expression, 'Yet once more,' denotes the removing of those things that can be shaken, as in created things, in order that those things which cannot be shaken may remain."

Hebrews 12:26, 27

And this word from God holds an awful urgency for us to notice!

"See to it that you do not refuse Him who is speaking. For if those did not escape when they refused Him who warned them on earth, much less shall we escape who turn away from Him who warns from heaven."

Hebrews 12:25

"For indeed we have had good news preached to us, just as they also but the word they heard (Lit. of hearing) did not profit them, because it was not united by faith in those who heard (or they were not united in faith with those who heard)."

Hebrews 4:2

"Therefore, since we receive a kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us show (Lit. have) gratitude, by which we may offer to God an acceptable service with reverence and awe; for our God is a consuming fire."

Hebrews 12:28, 29

"The Mighty One, God, the Lord has spoken,
And summons the earth from the rising of the sun to its setting.
Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty,
God has shone forth.
May our God come and not keep silence;
Fire devours before Him,
And it is very tempestuous around Him.
He summons the heavens above,
And the earth to judge His people;
'Gather My godly ones to Me,
Those who have made a covenant with Me by sacrifice.'
And the heavens declare His righteousness,
For God Himself is judge."

Psalm 50: 1-5
