Matthew 21:33-43

Hear ye another parable. A man was a landlord, who planted a vineyard, and placed a hedge around it, and dug a wine-trough in it, and built a tower, and gave it out to husbandmen, and went away. And when the time of the fruits drew near, he sent his servants to the husbandmen, to receive his fruits; and the husbandmen taking his servants, beat one, and slew one, and stoned another.read more.
Again he sent other servants, more than the first: and they did unto them likewise. And afterward he sent to them his own son, saying, They will reverence my son. But the husbandmen, seeing the son, said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and take possession of his inheritance. And taking him, they cast him out of the vine-yard, and slew him. Then when the lord of the vine-yard may come, what will he do to those husbandmen? They say to Him, He will certainly destroy those wicked men, and give the vineyard to other husband-men, who will render to him the fruits in their seasons. Jesus says, Have you not read in the Scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same has come to be the head of the corner: this was with the Lord, and is marvelous in our eyes? Therefore I say unto you, that the kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits of it.

Acts 13:32-48

And we preach unto you the promise, which was made to the fathers, that God has fulfilled this unto our children, raising up Jesus, as in the second Psalm it has been written, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee. And because he raised him up from the dead, no longer about to return to corruption, He has thus said, I will give unto you the faithful mercies of David.read more.
Therefore He also says in another place, Thou wilt not suffer thy Holy One to see corruption. For David, indeed having served his own generation according to the will of God, went to sleep, and did see corruption: but he, whom God raised up, did not see corruption. Then let it be known unto you, men brethren, that through this one remission of sins is preached: and in him every one believing is justified from all things from which ye were not able to be justified by the law of Moses. Then beware, lest the word which has been spoken by the prophets may come upon you; Behold, ye despisers, and wonder, and vanish away: because I work a work in your days, a work which you may not believe, though one may proclaim it to you. And they going out, they continued to entreat them that these words should be spoken to them on the next Sabbath. And the synagogue having been adjourned, many of the Jews and pious proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas, who, speaking with them, continued to persuade them to abide in the grace of God. And on the following Sabbath almost all the city came together to hear the word of the Lord. And the Jews seeing the multitudes, were filled with jealousy, and contradicted the word spoken by Paul, contradicting and blaspheming. And Paul and Barnabas speaking boldly, said, It was necessary that the word of God should first be spoken to you: since you have rejected it, and judge yourselves not worthy of eternal life, behold we now turn to the Gentiles. For thus the Lord has commanded us, I have placed thee for a light of the Gentiles, that thou shalt be for salvation unto the extremity of the earth. And the Gentiles hearing, rejoiced, and glorified the word of the Lord: and so many as had been ordained unto eternal life believed:

Romans 10:1-21

Brethren, indeed the desire of my heart and my prayer to God in their behalf, is for their salvation. For I testify to them, that they have a zeal of God, but not according to perfect knowledge; for being ignorant of God's righteousness, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, they have not submitted to the righteousness of God.read more.
For Christ is the end of the law unto righteousness to every one who believes. For Moses describes the righteousness which is of the law, that the man having done this shall live in it. But the righteousness of faith speaks thus, Say not in thy heart, Who shall ascend up into heaven? that is, to bring Christ down: or, Who shall descend into the abyss? that is, to bring him up from the dead. But what says it? The word is nigh thee, in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach. That if you may confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and may believe with your heart that God raised him from the dead, you shall be saved: for with the heart it is believed unto righteousness; and with the mouth it is confessed unto salvation. For the scripture says, Every one believing on him shall not be ashamed. For there is no difference between Jew and Greek: for the same is Lord of all, rich unto all that call on him. For every one who may call on the name of the Lord shall be saved. Then how can they call on him on whom they have not believed? and how can they believe on him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher? And how can they preach, unless they may be sent forth? as has been written, How beautiful are the feet of those, who preach the gospel of good things! But they have not all heard the gospel. For Isaiah says, Lord, who has believed our report? Then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ. But I say, Have they not all heard? Yea, truly, Their sound has gone out into all the earth, and their words unto the ends of the world. But I say, Whether does not Israel know? Moses first says, I will provoke you to jealousy with that which is no nation, and with a nation void of understanding I will anger you. But Isaiah is bold, and says, I was found by those not seeking after me; and made manifest to those not inquiring after me. But to Israel he says, All day long have I reached forth my hands to a gainsaying and disobedient people.

Luke 16:26

And in addition to all these things, there is a great gulf fixed between us and you, in order that those wishing to go hence to you may not be able, neither can they come thence to us.

Revelation 20:11-15

And I saw a great white throne, and him sitting on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne; and the books were opened, and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of the things which were written in the books, according to their works. And the sea gave up the dead who are in it; and death and Hades gave up the dead who were in them; and they were judged each according to their works.read more.
And death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death, the lake of fire. And if any one was not found written in the book of life, he was cast into the lake of fire.
