The story of Esther is such an amazing story of God's providence. The intrigue created by Haman and his hatred of Mordecai is great story material. Add to that Haman's demise brought about on his own gallows built to hang Mordecai and you have all the makings of a great novel. But this isn't a novel, it is the true story of a young queen and her saving her people.
The document discusses Jesus Christ's second coming as described in the Bible. It provides several passages that describe Christ returning from heaven on a white horse to judge the living and the dead. All people will be resurrected or gathered before Him and He will separate the righteous from the unrighteous, condemning sinners to eternal punishment but bringing the righteous into eternal life. The devil and those who follow him will be thrown into the lake of fire while Christ and His followers will begin their eternal kingdom.
1. Utnapishtim tells Gilgamesh how he obtained immortality from the gods after surviving a great flood sent by Enlil to destroy humanity.
2. Ea warned Utnapishtim of the coming flood in a dream and instructed him to build a large boat and take his family, animals and craftsmen aboard.
3. After the floodwaters receded, Utnapishtim released birds to check if the waters had abated and made a sacrifice that pleased the gods. Enlil was angry that anyone survived but Ea convinced him to make Utnapishtim immortal.
The document is a passage from Hebrews 10:32-39 from the New Revised Standard Version of the Bible. It encourages believers to have enduring faith like those before them who endured suffering and persecution yet maintained compassion for others. It warns not to lose confidence and faith, as those who endure and do God's will to the end will receive God's promised reward, while those who lose faith or shrink back will be lost.
The psalmist calls on God, the shepherd of Israel, to stir up his might and come to save Israel. He asks God to restore Israel and let his face shine on them so that they may be saved, as God has fed them tears and caused them to be scorned and laughed at by neighbors and enemies. The psalmist pleads for God to restore Israel once more and let his face shine for their salvation.
Jesus compares the people of his generation to children who cannot be pleased, whether John the Baptist came abstaining from food and drink or Jesus came eating and drinking. No matter what John or Jesus did, the people accused them of wrongdoing. Despite this, Jesus says that wisdom will be proven right by those who follow it.

John the Baptist preaches to crowds coming for baptism, telling them to bear fruits worthy of repentance and share food and clothing with those in need. When asked what they should do, John tells tax collectors to collect only what is required and soldiers not to extort money through threats. John explains that while he baptizes with water, a more powerful figure is coming who will baptize with the Holy Spirit and fire, gathering the wheat into the granary but burning the chaff with unquenchable fire.
God warns that those who oppress the poor will be punished. The passage describes merchants exploiting the poor by manipulating weights and measures to overcharge for goods. God swears he will never forget the deeds of those who mistreat the vulnerable. On the day of reckoning, God will cause darkness at noon and turn celebrations to mourning for the mistreatment of the poor. A famine is coming not of bread or water but of hearing the word of God, as people wander seeking it but find nothing.
The document references Isaiah 35:3-7 and encourages those who are weak or fearful not to fear, as God will come to save them with vengeance against their enemies. It describes how God will open the eyes of the blind, unstop the ears of the deaf, allow the lame to leap like deer and the speechless to sing for joy. When God comes, the wilderness will have waters break forth and streams in the desert, with the burning sand becoming pools and thirsty ground becoming springs of water.
Five cities in Egypt will speak the language of Canaan and pledge allegiance to the Lord of hosts, including one called the City of the Sun. On that day, an altar to the Lord will be in the center of Egypt and a pillar to the Lord at its border, as a sign and witness to the Lord in Egypt. When Egypt cries out due to oppressors, the Lord will send a savior to defend and deliver them, and the Egyptians will know the Lord and worship him with sacrifice.
This document contains passages from the book of Malachi in the Old Testament. It discusses how God will purify the descendants of Levi like gold and silver.

Jesus tells the crowds that no sign will be given to them except the sign of Jonah, referring to his death and resurrection. He says that just as Jonah was a sign to Nineveh, so too the Son of Man will be a sign to this generation. Jesus also says that both the queen of the South and the people of Nineveh will condemn this generation on judgment day for not believing in him, even though their wisdom and repentance came from lesser prophets than himself.
The passage is from Revelation 22:12-16 and discusses Jesus's imminent return. It states that Jesus will repay all according to their works and identifies himself as the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. It describes those who wash their robes as blessed and having access to the tree of life and city, while those outside are evildoers like sorcerers, fornicators, and idolaters. The passage closes with Jesus identifying himself as having sent the angel to deliver the testimony to the churches, and as the root and descendant of David and the bright morning star.
The passage describes signs that will precede the return of the Son of Man, including disturbances in nature and widespread fear. It tells people not to be weighed down by worries but to watch for these signs and have faith, as redemption is near. When the signs occur, the kingdom of God will be at hand, and this generation will witness all prophecies fulfilled before passing away.
The psalmist describes how the heavens declare the glory of God and spread knowledge throughout the earth without words. They have set the sun in the sky like a bridegroom, and its heat reaches everywhere. The laws and commands of God are perfect, sure, right, clear, pure, true, and more desirable than gold. By keeping God's commands, one finds great reward and protection from insolence.
God tells Ezekiel that he has broken Pharaoh's arm and will not allow it to heal, and that he will break both of Pharaoh's arms so that the sword will fall from his hand. God will scatter the Egyptians among the nations and strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, putting his sword in the king of Babylon's hand to use against Egypt so that Pharaoh and Egypt will know that God is Lord.

"I learned the emoji turned ten... know what creation is older???"
Christ has been raised from the dead as the first fruits of those who have died. Through Christ's resurrection, all people will be made alive, with Christ as the first fruits and then those who belong to Christ at his coming. Christ must reign until he destroys every ruler and authority, with the last enemy being death, so that God may be all in all.
This passage encourages believers to have enduring faith even when facing suffering and persecution. It refers to early Christians who faced hard times but remained faithful by supporting fellow believers in prison and accepting the loss of their possessions, knowing they had something greater.

True believers will live by faith in God rather than shrinking back in doubt or fear of further troubles.

AlleluiaPSALM 78
23 Yet he commanded the skies above,
and opened the doors of heaven;
24 he rained down on them manna to eat,
and gave them the grain of heaven.
25 Mortals ate of the bread of angels;
he sent them food in abundance.
26 He caused the east wind to blow in the heavens,
and by his power he led out the south wind;
27 he rained flesh upon them like dust,
winged birds like the sand of the seas;
28 he let them fall within their camp,
all around their dwellings.
29 And they ate and were well filled,
for he gave them what they craved.
