马太福音24:14
24:14这天国的福音要传遍天下,对万民作见证,然后末期才来到。
启示录 7:9-17
7:9 此后,我观看,见有许多的人,没有人能数过来,是从各国、各族、各民、各方来的,站在宝座和羔羊面前,身穿白衣,手拿棕树枝,
7:10 大声喊着说:“愿救恩归与坐在宝座上我们的 神,也归与羔羊。”
7:11 众天使都站在宝座和众长老并四活物的周围,在宝座前,面伏于地敬拜 神,
7:12 说:“阿们!颂赞、荣耀、智慧、感谢、尊贵、权柄、大力都归与我们的 神,直到永永远远。阿们!”
7:13 长老中有一位问我说:“这些穿白衣的是谁?是从哪里来的?”
7:14 我对他说:“我主,你知道。”他向我说:“这些人是从大患难中出来的,曾用羔羊的血把衣裳洗白净了。
7:15 所以,他们在 神宝座前,昼夜在他殿中事奉他。坐宝座的要用帐幕覆庇他们。
7:16 他们不再饥、不再渴,日头和炎热也必不伤害他们。
7:17 因为宝座中的羔羊必牧养他们,领他们到生命水的泉源;神也必擦去他们一切的眼泪。”
哥林多前书 15:1-4
15:1 弟兄们,我如今把先前所传给你们的福音,告诉你们知道。这福音你们也领受了,又靠着站立得住;
15:2 并且你们若不是徒然相信,能以持守我所传给你们的,就必因这福音得救。
15:3 我当日所领受又传给你们的,第一,就是基督照圣经所说,为我们的罪死了,
15:4 而且埋葬了,又照圣经所说,第三天复活了,
Matthew 24:14 (NIV)
14And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.
Revelation 7:9-17 (NIV)
9After this I looked and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and in front of the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and were holding palm branches in their hands.
10And they cried out in a loud voice: “Salvation belongs to our God, who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb.”
11All the angels were standing around the throne and around the elders and the four living creatures. They fell down on their faces before the throne and worshiped God,
12saying: “Amen! Praise and glory and wisdom and thanks and honor and power and strength be to our God for ever and ever. Amen!”
13Then one of the elders asked me, “These in white robes–who are they, and where did they come from?”
14I answered, “Sir, you know.”
15And he said, “These are they who have come out of the great tribulation; they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. Therefore, “they are before the throne of God and serve him day and night in his temple; and he who sits on the throne will spread his tent over them.
16Never again will they hunger; never again will they thirst. The sun will not beat upon them, nor any scorching heat.
17For the Lamb at the center of the throne will be their shepherd; he will lead them to springs of living water. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.”
1 Corinthians 15:1-4 (NIV)
1Now, brothers, I want to remind you of the gospel I preached to you, which you received and on which you have taken your stand.
2By this gospel you are saved, if you hold firmly to the word I preached to you. Otherwise, you have believed in vain.
3For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance : that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures,
4that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures,
