For it is written: “Cursed is everyone who does not continue to do everything written in the Book of the Law.”Deuteronomy 27:15–26‘Cursed is the man who makes a carved idol or molten image—an abomination to the LORD, the work of the hands of a craftsman—and sets it up in secret.’ And let all the people say, ‘Amen!’Psalms 119:21You rebuke the arrogant— the cursed who stray from Your commandments.1 Thessalonians 5:4But you, brothers, are not in the darkness so that this day should overtake you like a thief.Deuteronomy 32:23I will heap disasters upon them; I will spend My arrows against them.Isaiah 3:11Woe to the wicked; disaster is upon them!
