                  After John was put in prison, Jesus went into Galilee, pro-
                  claiming the good news of God [God's commandments].
                  "The time has come," he said. "The kingdom of God [the

                  promise of paradise] is near. Repent and believe the good
                  news [God's commandments]!" (Mark, 1:14-15)

                  That is why I am so eager to preach the Gospel also to you
                  who are at Rome... the Gospel, because it is the power of
                  God for the salvation of everyone who believes... For... a
                  righteousness that is by faith from first to last, just as it is writ-
                  ten: "The righteous will live by faith." (Romans, 1:15-17)

                  [Jesus:] "Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law
                  [God's previous commandment] or the Prophets; I have not

                  come to abolish them but to fulfill them... Anyone who
                  breaks one of the least of these commandments and teaches
                  others to do the same will be called least in the kingdom of
                  heaven [in the hereafter], but whoever practices and teaches
                  these commands will be called great in the kingdom of
                  heaven [in the hereafter]." (Matthew, 5:17-19)

                  Now, brothers,  I want to remind you of the Gospel I
                  preached to you, which you received and on which you have
                  taken your stand. By this Gospel you are saved, if you hold
                  firmly to the word I preached to you. (1 Corinthians, 15:1-2)

                  Both of them were upright in the Sight of God, observing all
                  the Lord's commandments and regulations blamelessly.
                  (Luke, 1:6)


                  ... He [God] will punish those who do not know God and do
