Flame and Abraham Kuyper

A rapper who happens to be a christain and reformed-whose faith defines,sustains his music-not his music marketing,defining and sustaining his music. A example of this famous quote: There is not a square inch in the whole domain of our human existence over which Christ, who is Sovereign over all, does not cry: 'Mine!' "

Abraham Kuyper (1837-1920)

Matteh 5:13-17


13"Ye are the salt of the earth, but if the salt has lost his savor, wherewith shall it be salted? It is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out and to be trodden under foot of men.


14"Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hid.


15Neither do men light a candle and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick, and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.


16Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in Heaven.


17"Think not that I am come to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill.


13Vosotros sois la sal de la tierra; pero si la sal se ha vuelto insípida, ¿con qué se hará salada otra vez? Ya para nada sirve, sino para ser echada fuera y pisoteada por los hombres.

14Vosotros sois la luz del mundo. Una ciudad situada sobre un monte no se puede ocultar;

15ni se enciende una lámpara y se pone debajo de un almud, sino sobre el candelero, y alumbra a todos los que están en la casa.

16Así brille vuestra luz delante de los hombres, para que vean vuestras buenas acciones y glorifiquen a vuestro Padre que está en los cielos.



Jesús cumple la ley y los profetas
17No penséis que he venido para abolir la ley o los profetas; no he venido para abolir, sino para cumplir.

concerning Christmas all I would do is to point you to His Holy Word:

Of Christian Liberty, and Liberty of
Conscience
20.1 The liberty which Christ hath purchased for believers under the Gospel, consists in
their freedom from the guilt of sin, the condemning wrath of God, the curse of the moral
24
law;1 and in their being delivered from this present evil world, bondage to Satan, and
dominion of sin,2 from the evil of afflictions, the sting of death, the victory of the grave,
and everlasting damnation;3 as also in their free access to God,4 and their yielding
obedience unto Him, not out of slavish fear, but a child-like love and willing mind.5 All
which were common also to believers under the law;6 but under the new testament, the
liberty of Christians is further enlarged in their freedom from the yoke of the ceremonial
law, to which the Jewish Church was subjected,7 and in greater boldness of access to the
throne of grace,8 and in fuller communications of the free Spirit of God, than believers
under the law did ordinarily partake of.9
1Tit 2:14; 1 Thes 1:10; Gal 3:13; 2Gal 1:4; Col 1:13; Acts 26:18; Rom 6:14; 3Rom 8:28; Ps 119:71; 1 Cor 15:54–
57; Rom 8:1; 4Rom 5:1–2; 5Rom 8:14–15; 1 Jn 4:18; 6Gal 3:9, 14; 7Gal 4:1–3, 6–7; 5:1; Acts 15:10–11; 8Heb
4:14, 16; 10:19–22; 9Jn 7:38–39; 2 Cor 3:13, 17–18.
20.2 God alone is Lord of the conscience,1 and hath left it free from the doctrines and
commandments of men which are in any thing contrary to His Word, or beside it, in
matters of faith or worship.2 So that to believe such doctrines, or to obey such
commandments out of conscience, is to betray true liberty of conscience;3 and the
requiring of an implicit faith, and an absolute and blind obedience, is to destroy liberty of
conscience, and reason also.4
1Jas 4:12; Rom 14:4; 2Acts 4:19; 5:29; 1 Cor 7:23; Mt 23:8–10; 2 Cor 1:24; Mt 15:9; 3Col 2:20, 22–23; Gal 1:10;

20.3 They who, upon pretence of Christian liberty, do practice any sin, or cherish any
lust, do thereby destroy the end of Christian liberty; which is, that being delivered out of
the hands of our enemies, we might serve the Lord without fear, in holiness and
righteousness before Him, all the days of our life.1
1Gal 5:13; 1 Pet 2:16; 2 Pet 2:19; Jn 8:34; Lk 1:74–75.
20.4 And because the powers which God hath ordained, and the liberty which Christ hath
purchased, are not intended by God to destroy, but mutually to uphold and preserve one
another; they who, upon pretence of Christian liberty, shall oppose any lawful power, or
the lawful exercise of it, whether it be civil or ecclesiastical, resist the ordinance of God.1
And for their publishing of such opinions, or maintaining of such practices, as are
contrary to the light of nature, or to the known principles of Christianity, whether
concerning faith, worship, or conversation; or to the power of godliness, or such
erroneous opinions or practices, as either in their own nature, or in the manner of
publishing or maintaining them, are destructive to the external peace and order which
Christ hath established in the Church, they may lawfully be called to account, and
proceeded against by the censures of the Church,2 and by the power of the civil
magistrate.3
1Mt 12:25; 1 Pet 2:13–14, 16; Rom 13:1–8; Heb 13:17; 2Rom 1:32; 1 Cor 5:1, 5, 11, 13; 2 Jn 10–11; 2 Thes

A Message for Reformed Christian Rappers (and the Hip-Hop Culture) at the 2007 Legacy Conference paul washer

http://www.sermonaudio.com/sermoninfo.asp?SID=42208121490

Max (6/14/2008)
“ Great Sermon! ”I listened to this sermon to find out if Pastor Paul Washer was encouraging rap music. He was just defending biblical truth. For that reason I truly enjoyed this sermon. However I do not agree with the fact that some christians are using rap music to preach the gospel. Knowing the origins of Hip Hop, I will go as far to say that it has no business in the Church no matter how biblical these rappers may be, for the same reason that strange fire should not be presented to a Holy God. Remember that Aaron's sons were killed for doing so (Leviticus 10: 1-3) We should not use the world's music to reach the lost or adapt the gospel to this culture. They will come to Jesus through the preaching of the Gospel or they will not come at all. For those who wants to know about hip hop and its origins, visit www.exministries.com and you'll understand the reason why I make this statement. The pastor is G. Craig Lewis and he has done a phenominal job at explaining what really goes on in Hip hop and why christians should never embrace it. God bless you all
Sean I (5/26/2008)
“ Thanks Paul! ”Thanks Paul for stopping long enough to get to know some of the men that are preaching the gospel through rap, and being open enough to examine the words in their music. If we are honest, most of us are closed to rap music because of our personal and cultural bias. What makes music biblical first is the content (lyrics). Secondly the instrumental accompaniment should not take away from the message. I have had the opportunity to hear a few reformed rappers. Their theology is more solid and grounded in scripture than many modern day preachers. Being part of a culture that has been dumbed down and entertained to death, I am convinced that our dead, dry, formal preaching will never reach them! A dead theological sermon or lecture will never reach a culture or the conscience that has been addicted to iPods, MySpace, music, entertainment.... My heart aches for many who will never enter the doors of our reformed churches and be classified as the “non elect”. Yet did we weep over their condition, or seek ways to reach them outside of the 4 walls. May we develop the heart of Christ, Brainerd, Carey, Taylor, Mccheyne, Elliot….And use the gifts and talents God has given us! Even if its Rap Music. Music is powerful and should be use to teach and warn.
curtis woods (5/9/2008)
“ Great Sermon! ”This sermon represents the passion of my heart! I remember when GOD, via my campus minister, confronted my mind with the GOSPEL...Now as a campus minister I long for God to truly save sinners, transforming their affections for His glory alone... Soli Deo gloria!
Carol R from Bible Belt (4/26/2008)
“ Great Sermon! ”I was surprised to hear Paul Washer encouraging the Christian rap, but as I listened, I understood his point. And then he went on to tell the rappers that they had to live a life above reproach, and to keep reaching the audience that might only listen to them. Washer then gave the gospel message in the clear, powerful style he always does. I can't get enough of Paul WAsher's sermons!
Jay Miklovic from Toledo, Ohio (4/23/2008)
“ Appreciated message ”The Gospel is wonderful, and astounding, and presented clearly in the message. It is encouraging to hear a reformed preacher encouraging reformed music (rap artists) to continue in the ministry they do. To acknowledge these men who rap truth without bashing them is a bold move for a preacher who is likely associated with many who bash the very genre of rap as being heretical or from the pit. As a caution, we are all aware that there is some really lame 'Christian' music out there in all genres that is not Christian at all. (including 'Gospel Singers')

Wherefore that much more ought we to take care not to abuse it, for fear of fouling and contaminating it, converting it to our condemnation, when it was dedicated to our profit and welfare. If there were no other consideration than this alone, it ought indeed to move us to moderate the use of music, to make it serve everything virtuous, and that it ought not to give occasion for our giving free reign to licentiousness, or for our making ourselves effeminate in disorderly delights, and that it ought not to become an instrument of dissipation or of any obscenity.”
-John Calvin

It is crucial that the church’s songs be substantial enough to express accurately mature Christian belief as well as the subtlety of Christian experience…Simplistic, sentimental, repetitious songs by their very nature cannot carry the weight of Reformed doctrine and will leave the people of God ill-equipped on occasions of great moment.”
-Terry Johnson

I know how difficult it is to persuade the world that God disapproves of all modes of worship not expressly sanctioned by his word. The opposite persuasion which cleaves to them, being seated, as it were, in their very bones and marrow, is, that whatever they do has in itself a sufficient sanction, provided it exhibits some kind of zeal for the honor of God. But since God not only regards as fruitless, but also plainly abominates, whatever we undertake from zeal to his worship, if at variance with his command, what do we gain by a contrary course? The words of God are clear and distinct, "Obedience is better than sacrifice." "In vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men," (1 Sam. 15:22; Matt. 15:9). Every addition to his word, especially in this matter, is a lie. Mere "will worship" (ethelothreeskeia) is vanity [Col. 2:23]. This is the decision, and when once the judge has decided, it is no longer time to debate." (John Calvin, The Necessity of Reforming the Church

The devil has seldom done a cleverer thing than hinting to the Church that part of their mission is to provide entertainment for the people, with a view to winning them...providing amusement for the people is nowhere spoken of in the Scriptures as a function of the Church...
"The need is biblical doctrine, so understood and felt that it sets men aflame." -- Charles Spurgeon

All music is a product of culture, past or present, and . . . previous historical cultures were as deeply flawed as our modern Western one. Even the Israelite culture that produced the Psalms, the ultimate book of praise songs and the only one to achieve canonical status (somethingeven Bach and Isaac Watts have failed to do), was constantly corrupted by syncretism, apostasy and sin. . . . The tendency to use what is familiar and popular—the musical vernacular—and sanctify it for holy purposes, has powerful precedents throughout church history.
–Mary L. Conway, “Worship Music: Maintaining Dynamic Tension,” McMaster Journal of Theology and Ministry

Every complaint about worship music, no matter which style, claims to be rooted in theological principles. Yet in every critique, the theology aligns perfectly with the critic’s own musical taste. What may be more helpful instead is a pragmatic test based on a bit of wisdom from the Gospels: “The tree is known by its fruit.” If this is so, then worship music ought to be judged not by the songs themselves but by the people who sing them. Looking at the songs themselves is rather like looking at the bark of a tree and then pronouncing the tree good or bad. Better to look at the fruit itself – the lives of the people who are singing the songs. The job of the local church is to communicate the good news of Jesus Christ, to draw people into a living relationship with God, and to remold disciples of Jesus into a Sermon-on-the-Mount shape. Any worship music that aids a church in these tasks is almost certainly a conduit of the Holy Spirit. In light of this, maybe it is time to substitute charity for condescension.
–Michael S. Hamilton, “The Triumph of the Praise Songs: How guitars beat out the organ in the worship wars,” Christianity Today 43.8 (12 July 1999)
We tend to think that it’s the sacrifice that makes the person acceptable; but actually it’s the person who makes the sacrifice acceptable.
–Daniel I. Block, on the story of Cain and Abel (Genesis 4)

Listen to this passage
Juan 20
La resurrección 1Y el primer día de la semana María Magdalena fue* temprano al sepulcro, cuando todavía estaba* oscuro, y vio* que ya la piedra había sido quitada del sepulcro.
2Entonces corrió* y fue* a Simón Pedro y al otro discípulo a quien Jesús amaba, y les dijo*: Se han llevado al Señor del sepulcro, y no sabemos dónde le han puesto.
3Salieron, pues, Pedro y el otro discípulo, e iban hacia el sepulcro.
4Los dos corrían juntos, pero el otro discípulo corrió más aprisa que Pedro, y llegó primero al sepulcro;
5e inclinándose para mirar adentro , vio* las envolturas de lino puestas allí, pero no entró.
6Entonces llegó* también Simón Pedro tras él, entró al sepulcro, y vio* las envolturas de lino puestas allí,
7y el sudario que había estado sobre la cabeza de Jesús, no puesto con las envolturas de lino, sino enrollado en un lugar aparte.
8Entonces entró también el otro discípulo, el que había llegado primero al sepulcro, y vio y creyó.
9Porque todavía no habían entendido la Escritura, que Jesús debía resucitar de entre los muertos.
10Los discípulos entonces se fueron de nuevo a sus casas.

Aparición de Jesús a María Magdalena 11Pero María estaba fuera, llorando junto al sepulcro; y mientras lloraba, se inclinó y miró dentro del sepulcro;
12y vio* dos ángeles vestidos de blanco, sentados donde había estado el cuerpo de Jesús, uno a la cabecera y otro a los pies.
13Y ellos le dijeron*: Mujer, ¿por qué lloras? Ella les dijo*: Porque se han llevado a mi Señor, y no sé dónde le han puesto.
14Al decir esto, se volvió y vio* a Jesús que estaba allí, pero no sabía que era Jesús.
15Jesús le dijo*: Mujer, ¿por qué lloras? ¿A quién buscas? Ella, pensando que era el hortelano, le dijo*: Señor, si tú le has llevado, dime dónde le has puesto, y yo me lo llevaré.
16Jesús le dijo*: ¡María! Ella, volviéndose, le dijo* en hebreo: ¡Raboní! (que quiere decir, Maestro).
17Jesús le dijo*: Suéltame porque todavía no he subido al Padre; pero ve a mis hermanos, y diles: "Subo a mi Padre y a vuestro Padre, a mi Dios y a vuestro Dios."
18Fue* María Magdalena y anunció a los discípulos: ¡He visto al Señor!, y que El le había dicho estas cosas.

Aparición a los discípulos 19Entonces, al atardecer de aquel día, el primero de la semana, y estando cerradas las puertas del lugar donde los discípulos se encontraban por miedo a los judíos, Jesús vino y se puso en medio de ellos, y les dijo*: Paz a vosotros.
20Y diciendo esto, les mostró las manos y el costado. Entonces los discípulos se regocijaron al ver al Señor.
21Jesús entonces les dijo otra vez: Paz a vosotros; como el Padre me ha enviado, así también yo os envío.
22Después de decir esto, sopló sobre ellos y les dijo*: Recibid el Espíritu Santo.
23A quienes perdonéis los pecados, éstos les son perdonados; a quienes retengáis los pecados, éstos les son retenidos.

Incredulidad de Tomás 24Tomás, uno de los doce, llamado el Dídimo, no estaba con ellos cuando Jesús vino.
25Entonces los otros discípulos le decían: ¡Hemos visto al Señor! Pero él les dijo: Si no veo en sus manos la señal de los clavos, y meto el dedo en el lugar de los clavos, y pongo la mano en su costado, no creeré.
26Ocho días después, sus discípulos estaban otra vez dentro, y Tomás con ellos. Y estando las puertas cerradas, Jesús vino* y se puso en medio de ellos, y dijo: Paz a vosotros.
27Luego dijo* a Tomás: Acerca aquí tu dedo, y mira mis manos; extiende aquí tu mano y métela en mi costado; y no seas incrédulo, sino creyente.
28Respondió Tomás y le dijo: ¡Señor mío y Dios mío!
29Jesús le dijo*: ¿Porque me has visto has creído? Dichosos los que no vieron, y sin embargo creyeron.

El propósito de este evangelio según Juan 30Y muchas otras señales hizo también Jesús en presencia de sus discípulos, que no están escritas en este libro;
31pero éstas se han escrito para que creáis que Jesús es el Cristo, el Hijo de Dios; y para que al creer, tengáis vida en su nombre.

John 20
The Resurrection 1(A) Now on the first day of the week Mary Magdalene came to the tomb early, while it was still dark, and saw that(B) the stone had been taken away from the tomb. 2So she ran and went to Simon Peter and the other disciple,(C) the one whom Jesus loved, and said to them, "They have taken the Lord out of the tomb, and(D) we do not know where they have laid him." 3(E) So Peter went out with the other disciple, and they were going toward the tomb. 4Both of them were running together, but the other disciple outran Peter and reached the tomb first. 5And stooping to look in, he saw(F) the linen cloths lying there, but he did not go in. 6Then Simon Peter came, following him, and went into the tomb. He saw the linen cloths lying there, 7and(G) the face cloth, which had been on Jesus’[a] head, not lying with the linen cloths but folded up in a place by itself. 8Then the other disciple,(H) who had reached the tomb first, also went in, and he saw and believed; 9for as yet(I) they did not understand the Scripture,(J) that he must rise from the dead. 10Then the disciples went back to their homes.
Jesus Appears to Mary Magdalene 11But Mary stood weeping outside the tomb, and as she wept she stooped to look into the tomb. 12And(K) she saw(L) two angels in white, sitting where the body of Jesus had lain, one at the head and one at the feet. 13They said to her,(M) "Woman, why are you weeping?" She said to them,(N) "They have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have laid him." 14Having said this, she turned around and(O) saw Jesus standing,(P) but she did not know that it was Jesus. 15Jesus said to her, (Q) "Woman, why are you weeping?(R) Whom are you seeking?" Supposing him to be(S) the gardener, she said to him, "Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have laid him, and I will take him away." 16Jesus said to her, "Mary." She turned and said to him in Aramaic,[b](T) "Rabboni!" (which means Teacher). 17Jesus said to her, "Do not cling to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to(U) my brothers and say to them,(V) 'I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to(W) my God and your God.'" 18Mary Magdalene(X) went and announced to the disciples, "I have seen the Lord"—and that he had said these things to her.
Jesus Appears to the Disciples 19(Y) On the evening(Z) of that day, the first day of the week,(AA) the doors being locked where the disciples were(AB) for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood among them and said to them, (AC) "Peace be with you." 20When he had said this,(AD) he showed them his hands and his side. Then(AE) the disciples were glad when they saw the Lord. 21Jesus said to them again, "Peace be with you. As(AF) the Father has sent me,(AG) even so I am sending you." 22And when he had said this, he(AH) breathed on them and said to them, (AI) "Receive the Holy Spirit. 23(AJ) If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven them; if you withhold forgiveness from any, it is withheld."
Jesus and Thomas 24Now(AK) Thomas, one of the Twelve, called the Twin,[c] was not with them when Jesus came. 25So the other disciples told him, "We have seen the Lord." But he said to them,(AL) "Unless I see in his hands the mark of the nails, and place my finger into the mark of the nails, and place my hand into his side, I will never believe."
26Eight days later, his disciples were inside again, and Thomas was with them.(AM) Although the doors were locked, Jesus came and stood among them and said, "Peace be with you." 27Then he said to Thomas, (AN) "Put your finger here, and see my hands; and put out your hand, and place it in my side. Do not disbelieve, but believe." 28Thomas answered him,(AO) "My Lord and my God!" 29Jesus said to him, "Have you believed because you have seen me?(AP) Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed."
The Purpose of This Book 30(AQ) Now Jesus did many other signs(AR) in the presence of the disciples, which are not written in this book; 31(AS) but these are written so that you may(AT) believe that Jesus is the Christ,(AU) the Son of God, and that by believing(AV) you may have life(AW) in his name.

15pero en caso que me tarde, te escribo para que sepas cómo debe conducirse uno en la casa de Dios, que es la iglesia del Dios vivo, columna y sostén de la verdad.

1 Timothy 3:15 (English Standard Version)

15if I delay, you may know how one ought to behave in the household of God, which is the church of the living God, a pillar and buttress of the truth.

romans 3:23-25:23for(A) all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24(B) and are justified(C) by his grace as a gift,(D) through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, 25whom God(E) put forward as(F) a propitiation(G) by his blood, to be received by faith. This was to show God’s righteousness, because in(H) his divine forbearance he had passed over(I) former sins.

23por cuanto todos pecaron y no alcanzan la gloria de Dios,
24siendo justificados gratuitamente por su gracia por medio de la redención que es en Cristo Jesús,
25a quien Dios exhibió públicamente como propiciación por su sangre a través de la fe, como demostración de su justicia, porque en su tolerancia, Dios pasó por alto los pecados cometidos anteriormente,

Romanos 5:12-19
Listen to this passage
Adán y Cristo comparados 12Por tanto, tal como el pecado entró en el mundo por un hombre, y la muerte por el pecado, así también la muerte se extendió a todos los hombres, porque todos pecaron;
13pues antes de la ley había pecado en el mundo, pero el pecado no se imputa cuando no hay ley.
14Sin embargo, la muerte reinó desde Adán hasta Moisés, aun sobre los que no habían pecado con una transgresión semejante a la de Adán, el cual es figura del que había de venir.
15Pero no sucede con la dádiva como con la transgresión. Porque si por la transgresión de uno murieron los muchos, mucho más, la gracia de Dios y el don por la gracia de un hombre, Jesucristo, abundaron para los muchos.
16Tampoco sucede con el don como con lo que vino por medio de aquel que pecó; porque ciertamente el juicio surgió a causa de una transgresión, resultando en condenación; pero la dádiva surgió a causa de muchas transgresiones resultando en justificación.
17Porque si por la transgresión de uno, por éste reinó la muerte, mucho más reinarán en vida por medio de uno, Jesucristo, los que reciben la abundancia de la gracia y del don de la justicia.
18Así pues, tal como por una transgresión resultó la condenación de todos los hombres, así también por un acto de justicia resultó la justificación de vida para todos los hombres.
19Porque así como por la desobediencia de un hombre los muchos fueron constituidos pecadores, así también por la obediencia de uno los muchos serán constituidos justos.

Romans 5:12-19
Listen to this passageView commentary related to this passage
Death in Adam, Life in Christ 12Therefore, just as(A) sin came into the world through one man, and(B) death through sin, and(C) so death spread to all men because(D) all sinned— 13for sin indeed was in the world before the law was given, but(E) sin is not counted where there is no law. 14Yet death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over those whose sinning was not(F) like the transgression of Adam,(G) who was a type of(H) the one who was to come.
15But the free gift is not like the trespass. For if many died through one man’s trespass, much more have the grace of God and the free gift by the grace of that one man Jesus Christ abounded for(I) many. 16And the free gift is not like the result of that one man’s sin. For(J) the judgment following one trespass brought condemnation, but the free gift following many trespasses brought(K) justification. 17For if, because of one man’s trespass, death reigned through that one man, much more will those who receive the abundance of grace and the free gift of righteousness(L) reign in life through the one man Jesus Christ.
18Therefore, as one trespass[a] led to condemnation for all men, so one act of righteousness[b] leads to justification and life for(M) all men. 19For as by the one man’s(N) disobedience the many were made sinners, so by the one man’s(O) obedience the many will be made righteous.

John 3:16-20
Listen to this passage
For God So Loved the World 16"For(A) God so loved(B) the world,[a](C) that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not(D) perish but have eternal life. 17For(E) God did not send his Son into the world(F) to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. 18(G) Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not(H) believed in the name of the only Son of God. 19(I) And this is the judgment:(J) the light has come into the world, and(K) people loved the darkness rather than the light because(L) their works were evil. 20(M) For everyone who does wicked things hates the light and does not come to the light,(N) lest his works should be exposed.

Juan 3:16-20
Listen to this passage
El amor de Dios 16Porque de tal manera amó Dios al mundo, que dio a su Hijo unigénito, para que todo aquel que cree en El, no se pierda, mas tenga vida eterna.
17Porque Dios no envió a su Hijo al mundo para juzgar al mundo, sino para que el mundo sea salvo por El.
18El que cree en El no es condenado; pero el que no cree, ya ha sido condenado, porque no ha creído en el nombre del unigénito Hijo de Dios.
19Y este es el juicio: que la luz vino al mundo, y los hombres amaron más las tinieblas que la luz, pues sus acciones eran malas.
20Porque todo el que hace lo malo odia la luz, y no viene a la luz para que sus acciones no sean expuestas.

La Biblia de las Américas (LBLA) Isais 1:
18Venid ahora, y razonemos --dice el SEÑOR-- aunque vuestros pecados sean como la grana, como la nieve serán emblanquecidos; aunque sean rojos como el carmesí, como blanca lana quedarán.
19Si queréis y obedecéis, comeréis lo mejor de la tierra;
20pero si rehusáis y os rebeláis, por la espada seréis devorados. Ciertamente, la boca del SEÑOR ha hablado.

Isaiah 1:18-20:

18"Come now,(A) let us reason[a] together, says the LORD:though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as(B) white as snow;though they are red like crimson, they shall become like wool.19(C) If you are willing and obedient, you shall eat the good of the land;20but if you refuse and rebel, you shall be eaten by the sword; (D) for the mouth of the LORD has spoken."

Isaiah 61
The Year of the LORD’s Favor 1(A) The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me, because the LORD has(B) anointed meto bring good news to the poor;[a] he has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted,to proclaim liberty to the captives, and(C) the opening of the prison to those who are bound;[b]2(D) to proclaim the year of the LORD’s favor,

Isaías 61
Buenas nuevas de salvación 1El Espíritu del Señor DIOS está sobre mí, porque me ha ungido el SEÑOR para traer buenas nuevas a los afligidos; me ha enviado para vendar a los quebrantados de corazón, para proclamar libertad a los cautivos y liberación a los prisioneros;
2para proclamar el año favorable del SEÑOR, y el día de venganza de nuestro Dios; para consolar a todos los que lloran
