10 Nor scrip for your journey, neither two coats, neither shoes, nor yet
staves: for the workman is worthy of his meat.
Mark 6:8-9 8 And commandedthem that they shouldtake nothing
for their journey, save a staff only; no scrip, no bread, no money in
their purse:
9 But be shod with sandals; and not put on two coats.
Luke 9:3 And he said unto them, Take nothing for your
journey, neither staves, nor scrip, neither bread, neither money;

and verily thou shalt be fed.

worthy, let your peace return to you.

shall turn to you again.

everlastingcovenant,

world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heartbe troubled, neither let it
be afraid.
Heb 11:37-40 37 They were stoned, they were sawn asunder, were
tempted, were slain with the sword: they wanderedabout in sheepskins
and goatskins; being destitute, afflicted, tormented;
38 (Of whom the world was not worthy:) they wanderedin deserts, and in
mountains, and in dens and caves of the earth.
39 And these all, havingobtaineda good report through faith, receivednot
the promise:
40 God havingprovidedsome better thing for us, that they without us
should not be made perfect.
Matt 10
14 And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when ye
depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet.
15 VerilyI say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for the landof Sodom
and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for that city.
Mark 6:11 And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear you, when
ye depart thence, shake off the dust under your feet for a testimony
againstthem. VerilyI say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for

receive the greater damnation.

death and hell deliveredup the dead which were in them: and they were
judged every man according to their works.
14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second
death.
15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into
the lake of fire.

of his flock? where is he that put his holy Spirit within him?

the sheep.

must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and
one shepherd.

clothing, but inwardlythey are raveningwolves.
John 10:12 But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own
the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and
fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep.
Acts 20:29 For I know this, that after my departingshall grievous wolves
enter in among you, not sparingthe flock.

wise,
16 Redeemingthe time, because the days are evil.
17 Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understandingwhat the will of the
Lord is.
Col 1:9 For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to
pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge
of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding;
Dove: The sanctuary of the soul
Gen 8:8-11 8 Also he sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters
were abated from off the face of the ground;
9 But the dove found no rest for the sole of her foot, and she returned
unto him into the ark, for the waters were on the face of the whole earth:
then he put forth his hand, and took her, and pulledher in unto him into
the ark.
10 And he stayed yet other seven days; and again he sent forth the dove
out of the ark;
11 And the dove came in to him in the evening; and, lo, in her mouth was
an olive leaf pluckt off: so Noah knew that the waters were abated from off

16 Saying, What shall we do to these men? for that indeed a notable
miracle hath been done by them is manifest to all them that dwell in
Jerusalem; and we cannot deny it.

how they might destroy him.

testimony against them and the Gentiles.
19 But when they deliver you up, take no thought how or what ye shall
speak: for it shall be given you in that same hour what ye shall speak.
20 For it is not ye that speak, but the Spirit of your Father which speaketh
in you.
Prophesy for a time when Jesus is not on earth: ye & you
Matt 10:22-23 22 And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake:

man be come.

8. 11 But when they shall lead you, and deliver you up, take no thought
beforehandwhat ye shall speak, neither do ye premeditate: but
whatsoever shall be given you in that hour, that speak ye: for it is not
ye that speak, but the Holy Ghost.
12 Now the brother shall betray the brother to death, and the father

shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.

which he spake.

child: and the children shall rise up against their parents, and cause them to

endureth to the end shall be saved.

and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times
and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and

26 But the judgment shall sit, and they shall take away his dominion, to
consume and to destroy it unto the end.
27 And the kingdom and dominion, and the greatness of the kingdom
under the whole heaven, shall be given to the people of the saints of the
most High, whose kingdom is an everlastingkingdom, and all dominions
shall serve and obey him.
28 Hitherto is the end of the matter. As for me Daniel, my cogitations
much troubled me, and my countenance changedin me: but I kept the
matter in my heart.
Dan 8:17-19 17 So he came near where I stood: and when he came, I was
afraid, and fell upon my face: but he said unto me, Understand, O son of
man: for at the time of the end shall be the vision.
18 Now as he was speaking with me, I was in a deep sleep on my face
toward the ground: but he touched me, and set me upright.
19 And he said, Behold, I will make thee know what shall be in the last end
of the indignation: for at the time appointed the end shall be.
Dan 9:26-27 26 And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut
off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall
11. destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a
flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.
27 And he shall confirmthe covenantwith many for one week: and in the
midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice andthe oblation to cease,
and for the overspreadingof abominations he shall make it desolate, even
until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon
the desolate.
Dan 11:35-40 35 And some of them of understandingshall fall, to try
them, and to purge, and to make them white, even to the time of the end:
because it is yet for a time appointed.
36 And the king shall do accordingto his will; and he shall exalt himself,
and magnify himself above every god, and shall speak marvellous things
againstthe God of gods, and shall prosper till the indignation be
accomplished: for that that is determinedshall be done.
37 Neither shall he regardthe God of his fathers, nor the desire of women,
nor regardany god: for he shall magnifyhimself above all.
38 But in his estate shall he honour the God of forces: and a god whom his
fathers knew not shall he honour with gold, and silver, and with precious
stones, and pleasantthings.
39 Thus shall he do in the most strong holds with a strange god, whom he
shall acknowledge and increase with glory: and he shall cause them to rule
over many, and shall divide the landfor gain.
40 And at the time of the end shall the king of the south push at him: and
the king of the north shall come againsthim like a whirlwind, with chariots,
and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter into the
countries,and shall overflow and pass over.

do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall
understand.
11 And from the time that the daily sacrifice shall be taken away, and the
abomination that maketh desolate set up, there shall be a thousand two
hundredand ninety days.

hundred and five and thirty days.
13 But go thou thy way till the end be: for thou shalt rest, and stand in thy
lot at the end of the days.
Matt 24:13-14 13 But he that shall endureunto the end, the same
shall be saved.
14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preachedin all the worldfor a
witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
