5 Now if you obey me fully and keep my covenant, then
out of all nations you will be my treasured possession.
Although the whole earth is mine,
6 you[a] will be for me a kingdom of priests and a holy
nation.’ These are the words you are to speak to the
Israelites.”
4. Deuteronomy 28
28 If you fully obey the Lord your God and carefully follow
all his commands I give you today, the Lord your God will
set you high above all the nations on earth. 2 All these
blessings will come on you and accompany you if you obey
the Lord your God:
3 You will be blessed in the city and blessed in the
country.
4 The fruit of your womb will be blessed, and the crops
of your land and the young of your livestock—the
calves of your herds and the lambs of your flocks.
5. Law of Moses
20 And God spoke all these words:
2 “I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery.
3 “You shall have no other gods before[a] me.
4 “You shall not make for yourself an image in the form of anything in heaven above or
on the earth beneath or in the waters below. 5 You shall not bow down to them or
worship them; for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the
sin of the parents to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, 6 but showing
love to a thousand generations of those who love me and keep my commandments.
Exodus 20
6. Law of Moses
24 Then the Lord said to Moses, “Come up to the Lord, you and Aaron,
Nadab and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel. You are to worship
at a distance, 2 but Moses alone is to approach the Lord; the others
must not come near. And the people may not come up with him.”
3 When Moses went and told the people all the Lord’s words and laws,
they responded with one voice, “Everything the Lord has said we will
do.” 4 Moses then wrote down everything the Lord had said.
7. Law of Moses
He got up early the next morning and built an altar at the foot of the
mountain and set up twelve stone pillars representing the twelve tribes
of Israel. 5 Then he sent young Israelite men, and they offered burnt
offerings and sacrificed young bulls as fellowship offerings to the Lord.
6 Moses took half of the blood and put it in bowls, and the other half he
splashed against the altar. 7 Then he took the Book of the Covenant
and read it to the people. They responded, “We will do everything the
Lord has said; we will obey .

8. John 1:11-13
11 He came to that which was his own, but his own
did not receive him. 12 Yet to all who did receive
him, to those who believed in his name, he gave
the right to become children of God— 13 children
born not of natural descent, nor of human decision
or a husband’s will, but born of God.
9. Acts 13:26-27
26 “Fellow children of Abraham and you God-

fulfilled the words of the prophets that are read
every Sabbath.

4 Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth,
burst into jubilant song with music;

44 You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your

language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.

7 For if there had been nothing wrong with that first covenant, no place would have been
sought for another. 8 But God found fault with the people and said[a]:
“The days are coming, declares the Lord,
when I will make a new covenant
with the people of Israel
and with the people of Judah.
It will not be like the covenant
I made with their ancestors
when I took them by the hand
to lead them out of Egypt,
because they did not remain faithful to my covenant,
and I turned away from them,
declares the Lord.

after that time, declares the Lord.

and they will be my people.
11 No longer will they teach their neighbor,
or say to one another, ‘Know the Lord,’
because they will all know me,
from the least of them to the greatest.
12 For I will forgive their wickedness
and will remember their sins no more.”[b]
