◄ There was a rainbow around the throne, in appearance like an emerald. ►

This is the sign of the covenant which I make between Me and you, and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations: I set My rainbow in the cloud… And I will look on it to remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth. § [It is] ordered in all things and secure. § That by two immutable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we might have some strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold of the hope set before us.

We declare to you glad tidings—that promise which was made to the fathers. God has fulfilled for us their children, in that He has raised up Jesus.

Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
