Hebrews 11:13-16
[SUP]13 [/SUP]All these died in faith, without receiving the promises, but having seen them and having welcomed them from a distance, and having confessed that they were strangers and exiles on the earth. [SUP]14 [/SUP]For those who say such things make it clear that they are seeking a country of their own. [SUP]15 [/SUP]And indeed if they had been thinking of that country from which they went out, they would have had opportunity to return. [SUP]16 [/SUP]But as it is, they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God; for He has prepared a city for them.
1 Corinthians 3:1-3
And I, brethren, could not speak to you as to spiritual men, but as to men of flesh, as to infants in Christ. [SUP]2 [/SUP]I gave you milk to drink, not solid food; for you were not yet able to receive it. Indeed, even now you are not yet able, [SUP]3 [/SUP]for you are still fleshly. For since there is jealousy and strife among you, are you not fleshly, and are you not walking like mere men?
Hebrews 5:7-14
[SUP]7 [/SUP]In the days of His flesh, He offered up both prayers and supplications with loud crying and tears to the One able to save Him from death, and He was heard because of His piety. [SUP]8 [/SUP]Although He was a Son, He learned obedience from the things which He suffered. [SUP]9 [/SUP]And having been made perfect, He became to all those who obey Him the source of eternal salvation, [SUP]10 [/SUP]being designated by God as a high priest according to the order of Melchizedek.[SUP]11 [/SUP]Concerning him we have much to say, and it is hard to explain, since you have become dull of hearing. [SUP]12 [/SUP]For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you have need again for someone to teach you the elementary principles of the oracles of God, and you have come to need milk and not solid food. [SUP]13 [/SUP]For everyone who partakes only of milk is not accustomed to the word of righteousness, for he is an infant. [SUP]14 [/SUP]But solid food is for the mature, who because of practice have their senses trained to discern good and
evil.
Daniel 7:21-22
[SUP]21 [/SUP]I kept looking, and that horn was waging war with the saints and overpowering them [SUP]22 [/SUP]until the Ancient of Days came and judgment was passed in favor of the saints of the Highest One, and the time arrived when the saints took possession of the kingdom.
Matthew 21:42-45
[SUP]42 [/SUP]Jesus *said to them, “Did you never read in the Scriptures,
‘The stone which the builders rejected,
This became the chief corner stone;
This came about from the Lord,
And it is marvelous in our eyes’?
[SUP]43 [/SUP]Therefore I say to you, the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a people, producing the fruit of it. [SUP]44 [/SUP]And he who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces; but on whomever it falls, it will scatter him like dust.”
[SUP]45 [/SUP]When the chief priests and the Pharisees heard His parables, they understood that He was speaking about them.
Daniel 2:35
[SUP]35 [/SUP]Then the iron, the clay, the bronze, the silver and the gold were crushed all at the same time and became like chaff from the summer threshing floors; and the wind carried them away so that not a trace of them was found. But the stone that struck the statue became a great mountain and filled the whole earth.
