He is also the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, so that he might come to have first place in everything.

He was faithful to the one who appointed him, just as Moses was in all God’s household.For Jesus is considered worthy of more glory than Moses, just as the builder has more honor than the house.Now every house is built by someone, but the one who built everything is God.Moses was faithful as a servant in all God’s household, as a testimony to what would be said in the future.But Christ was faithful as a Son over his household. And we are that household if we hold on to our confidence and the hope in which we boast.

The dominion will be vast, and its prosperity will never end. He will reign on the throne of David and over his kingdom, to establish and sustain it with justice and righteousness from now on and forever. The zeal of the LORD of Armies will accomplish this.

May his name endure forever; as long as the sun shines, may his fame increase. May all nations be blessed by him and call him blessed.Blessed be the LORD God, the God of Israel, who alone does wonders.Blessed be his glorious name forever; the whole earth is filled with his glory. Amen and amen.

As you were watching, a stone broke off without a hand touching it, struck the statue on its feet of iron and fired clay, and crushed them.Then the iron, the fired clay, the bronze, the silver, and the gold were shattered and became like chaff from the summer threshing floors. The wind carried them away, and not a trace of them could be found. But the stone that struck the statue became a great mountain and filled the whole earth.

What then is Apollos? What is Paul? They are servants through whom you believed, and each has the role the Lord has given.

The seventh angel blew his trumpet, and there were loud voices in heaven saying, The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ, and he will reign forever and ever.

“ In the days of those kings, the God of the heavens will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed, and this kingdom will not be left to another people. It will crush all these kingdoms and bring them to an end, but will itself endure forever.You saw a stone break off from the mountain without a hand touching it, and it crushed the iron, bronze, fired clay, silver, and gold. The great God has told the king what will happen in the future. The dream is certain, and its interpretation reliable.”

Now if the ministry that brought death, chiseled in letters on stones, came with glory, so that the Israelites were not able to gaze steadily at Moses’s face because of its glory, which was set aside,how will the ministry of the Spirit not be more glorious?For if the ministry that brought condemnation had glory, the ministry that brings righteousness overflows with even more glory.In fact, what had been glorious is not glorious now by comparison because of the glory that surpasses it.For if what was set aside was glorious, what endures will be even more glorious.

He presented another parable to them:“ The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed that a man took and sowed in his field.It’s the smallest of all the seeds, but when grown, it’s taller than the garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the sky come and nest in its branches.”He told them another parable:“ The kingdom of heaven is like leaven that a woman took and mixed into fifty pounds of flour until all of it was leavened.”

For David, after serving God’s purpose in his own generation, fell asleep, was buried with his fathers, and decayed,but the one God raised up did not decay.

He grew up before him like a young plant and like a root out of dry ground. He didn’t have an impressive form or majesty that we should look at him, no appearance that we should desire him.He was despised and rejected by men, a man of suffering who knew what sickness was. He was like someone people turned away from; he was despised, and we didn’t value him.

Therefore I will give him the many as a portion, and he will receive the mighty as spoil, because he willingly submitted to death, and was counted among the rebels; yet he bore the sin of many and interceded for the rebels.
