back to the garden 22

  I was very blessed forty-four years ago today at 3:12 P.M. when my beautiful daughter was born.    A single sunflower with its multiple seeds makes me think of how much potential my daughter has to be beautiful and blessed of the Lord.   What a blessing she has been to me over the years. I am truly blessed by her caring, persevering, example, inspiration, instructions, patience, wisdom, discernment, wit and humor, adherance to her values, her respect and love for God and His Word, her joyful voice, and sweet singing voice, her forgiveness, kindness, longsuffering.  Hey, this sounds like a Bible verse.  I will look it up. The scripture  is " But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,  gentleness, self-control."  Galations 5:22-23  She is not perfect, but she knows she is the "Righteousness of God in Christ Jesus."  She knows she has ultimate potential of a 1000-2000 ...

    Home > Bible Study > Christian Living > How To Study The Bible Excerpt How to Study the Bible by Dr. Chuck Missler The Bible is the Word of God. That’s quite a statement. If we really believe that, it should change everything. We realize that the Bible is not the random jottings of ancient Hebrew sages, but a portal — a portal into the heart of our Creator. The Word of God is given to instruct and correct and guide us, [1] but it is also a weapon to protect us from the enemy of our souls. [2] And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. — 2 Timothy 3:15 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. — Hebrews 4:12 The Bible is by far the best-sell...

      Home > Technical > Bible Codes > The Gospel In Genesis A Hidden Message The Gospel in Genesis by Chuck Missler We frequently use the familiar term gospel , or good news. Where is the first place it appears in the Bible? The answer may surprise you. An Integrated Message The great discovery is that the Bible is a message system: it’s not simply 66 books penned by 40 authors over thousands of years, the Bible is an integrated whole which bears evidence of supernatural engineering in every detail. The Jewish rabbis have a quaint way of expressing this very idea: they say that they will not understand the Scriptures until the Messiah comes. But when He comes, He will not only interpret each of the passages for us, He will interpret the very words; He will even interpret the very letters themselves; in fact, He will even interpret the spaces between the letters! When I first heard this, I simply dismissed this as a colorful exaggerati...

  For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit , and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. Hebrews 4:12 Every book of the Bible is about Jesus!  It's amazing how it works! The more we know Him the better we can talk to Him.  As He reveals Himself to us in His Holy Word, He shines His Light into our souls cleansing us, and making us more like Him.   We learn about ourselves in the Light of His glory, revealed in His Holy Word through His Holy Spirit.   Hallelujah!
