“Forever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven.”
Psalm 119:89
“Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.”
Matthew 24:35
“For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away: but the word of the Lord endureth forever.”
