“See that you do not refuse Him who speaks. For if they did not escape who refused Him who spoke on earth, much more shall we not escape if we turn away from Him who speaks from heaven, whose voice then shook the earth; but now He has promised, saying, 'Yet once more I shake not only the earth, but also heaven.'  Now this, 'Yet once more,' indicates the removal of those things that are being shaken, as of things that are made, that the things which cannot be shaken may remain.

'For our God is a consuming fire." Hebrews 12:25-29

Who forget My holy mountain,
Who prepare a table for Gad,
And who furnish a drink offering for Meni.

When I spoke, you did not hear,
But did evil before My eyes,
And chose that in which I do not delight.”  Isaiah 65:11-12

And chose that in which I do not delight.” Isaiah 66:3-4
