Thematic Bible: To repentance and a righteous life


Thematic Bible




I sent all my servants the prophets to warn you over and over again. They said, "Every one of you, stop doing the evil things you have been doing and do what is right. Do not pay allegiance to other gods and worship them. Then you can continue to live in this land that I gave to you and your ancestors." But you did not pay any attention or listen to me.

He sent his slaves to summon those who had been invited to the banquet, but they would not come.

Say to them, 'As surely as I live, declares the sovereign Lord, I take no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but prefer that the wicked change his behavior and live. Turn back, turn back from your evil deeds! Why should you die, O house of Israel?'


At the time for the banquet he sent his slave to tell those who had been invited, 'Come, because everything is now ready.'
