Exodus 3:8

       8   And I am come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up out of that land unto a good land and a large, unto a land flowing with milk and honey; unto the place of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites.

Judges 14:5-9

       5   Then went Samson down, and his father and his mother, to Timnath, and came to the vineyards of Timnath: and, behold, a young lion roared against him.
      6   And the Spirit of the LORD came mightily upon him, and he rent him as he would have rent a kid, and he had nothing in his hand: but he told not his father or his mother what he had done.
      7   And he went down, and talked with the woman; and she pleased Samson well.
      8   And after a time he returned to take her, and he turned aside to see the carcase of the lion: and, behold, there was a swarm of bees and honey in the carcase of the lion.
      9   And he took thereof in his hands, and went on eating, and came to his father and mother, and he gave them, and they did eat: but he told not them that he had taken the honey out of the carcase of the lion.

Zechariah 13:4

       4   And it shall come to pass in that day, that the prophets shall be ashamed every one of his vision, when he hath prophesied; neither shall they wear a rough garment to deceive:

Malachi 4:5

       5   Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD:

Malachi 4:5, 6

       5   Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD:
      6   And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.

Matthew 3:1-12

       1.   In those days came John the Baptist, preaching in the wilderness of Judaea,
      2   And saying, Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
      3   For this is he that was spoken of by the prophet Esaias, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.
      4   And the same John had his raiment of camel's hair, and a leathern girdle about his loins; and his meat was locusts and wild honey.
      5   Then went out to him Jerusalem, and all Judaea, and all the region round about Jordan,
      6   And were baptized of him in Jordan, confessing their sins.
      7.   But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his baptism, he said unto them, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?
      8   Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance:
      9   And think not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham.
      10   And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: therefore every tree which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
      11   I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire:
      12   Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.

Matthew 3:8

       8   Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance:

Matthew 3:10

       10   And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: therefore every tree which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.

Matthew 3:10, 12

       10   And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: therefore every tree which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
      12   Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.

Matthew 3:11

       11   I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire:

Matthew 3:12

       12   Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.

Matthew 17:10-13

       10   And his disciples asked him, saying, Why then say the scribes that Elias must first come?
      11   And Jesus answered and said unto them, Elias truly shall first come, and restore all things.
      12   But I say unto you, That Elias is come already, and they knew him not, but have done unto him whatsoever they listed. Likewise shall also the Son of man suffer of them.
      13   Then the disciples understood that he spake unto them of John the Baptist.

Mark 1:1-13

       1.   The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God;
      2   As it is written in the prophets, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.
      3   The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.
      4   John did baptize in the wilderness, and preach the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins.
      5   And there went out unto him all the land of Judaea, and they of Jerusalem, and were all baptized of him in the river of Jordan, confessing their sins.
      6   And John was clothed with camel's hair, and with a girdle of a skin about his loins; and he did eat locusts and wild honey;
      7   And preached, saying, There cometh one mightier than I after me, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to stoop down and unloose.
      8   I indeed have baptized you with water: but he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost.
      9.   And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized of John in Jordan.
      10   And straightway coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens opened, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon him:
      11   And there came a voice from heaven, saying, Thou art my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
      12   And immediately the Spirit driveth him into the wilderness.
      13   And he was there in the wilderness forty days, tempted of Satan; and was with the wild beasts; and the angels ministered unto him.

Luke 1:17

       17   And he shall go before him in the spirit and power of Elias, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.

Luke 3:1-18

       1.   Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judaea, and Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother Philip tetrarch of Ituraea and of the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias the tetrarch of Abilene,
      2   Annas and Caiaphas being the high priests, the word of God came unto John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness.
      3   And he came into all the country about Jordan, preaching the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins;
      4   As it is written in the book of the words of Esaias the prophet, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.
      5   Every valley shall be filled, and every mountain and hill shall be brought low; and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough ways shall be made smooth;
      6   And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.
      7   Then said he to the multitude that came forth to be baptized of him, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?
      8   Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of repentance, and begin not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, That God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham.
      9   And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: every tree therefore which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
      10   And the people asked him, saying, What shall we do then?
      11   He answereth and saith unto them, He that hath two coats, let him impart to him that hath none; and he that hath meat, let him do likewise.
      12   Then came also publicans to be baptized, and said unto him, Master, what shall we do?
      13   And he said unto them, Exact no more than that which is appointed you.
      14   And the soldiers likewise demanded of him, saying, And what shall we do? And he said unto them, Do violence to no man, neither accuse any falsely; and be content with your wages.
      15.   And as the people were in expectation, and all men mused in their hearts of John, whether he were the Christ, or not;
      16   John answered, saying unto them all, I indeed baptize you with water; but one mightier than I cometh, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire:
      17   Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and will gather the wheat into his garner; but the chaff he will burn with fire unquenchable.
      18   And many other things in his exhortation preached he unto the people.

Luke 13:6

       6.   He spake also this parable; A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard; and he came and sought fruit thereon, and found none.

John 1:15-28

       15.   John bare witness of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spake, He that cometh after me is preferred before me: for he was before me.
      16   And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace.
      17   For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.
      18   No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.
      19.   And this is the record of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, Who art thou?
      20   And he confessed, and denied not; but confessed, I am not the Christ.
      21   And they asked him, What then? Art thou Elias? And he saith, I am not. Art thou that prophet? And he answered, No.
      22   Then said they unto him, Who art thou? that we may give an answer to them that sent us. What sayest thou of thyself?
      23   He said, I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord, as said the prophet Esaias.
      24   And they which were sent were of the Pharisees.
      25   And they asked him, and said unto him, Why baptizest thou then, if thou be not that Christ, nor Elias, neither that prophet?
      26   John answered them, saying, I baptize with water: but there standeth one among you, whom ye know not;
      27   He it is, who coming after me is preferred before me, whose shoe's latchet I am not worthy to unloose.
      28   These things were done in Bethabara beyond Jordan, where John was baptizing.

Galatians 3:29

       29   And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.
