HAVE YOU EVER REALLY THOUGHT ON WHAT DAY JESUS WAS CRUCIFIED? DO WE REALLY KNOW WHICH DAY IS THE FIRST DAY OF THE WEEK? WHICH DAY IS YOUR SABBATH? I WOULD LIKE TO GIVE YOU MY VIEWS ON THIS AND THIS IS JUST WHAT I THINK. SINCE THE BIBLE DOES NOT MENTION DAYS OF THE WEEK LIKE WE CALL THEM, I CAN'T CONFIRM THIS SPECIFICALLY WITH SCRIPTURE BUT PLEASE STAY WITH ME ON THIS. FROM WHAT I DO GET FROM SCRIPTURE, I BELIEVE THIS IS A PRETTY GOOD WAY TO LOOK AT IT.
DO YOU KNOW THAT SINCE THE WORD "TRINITY" IS NOT FOUND IN THE BIBLE, SOME PEOPLE DON'T BELIEVE IN A TRIUNE GOD. I SINCERELY BELIEVE THAT THESE PEOPLE DON'T CARE THE FIRST THING ABOUT GOD BUT JUST LOVE TO ARGUE WITH ANYONE ABOUT THE BIBLE. THEY HAVE READ IT AND EVEN STUDIED IT, NOT TO LEARN OF GOD, BUT TO BE ABE TO ARGUE WELL. WE JUST HAVE TO PRAY FOR THESE PEOPLE.
THERE ARE MANY WORDS WE USE PERTAINING TO GOD, JESUS AND HOLY SPIRIT THAT ARE NOT FOUND IN THE BIBLE. HOW ABOUT "BIBLE"? IT IS NOT FOUND IN THE BIBLE BUT WE USE IT TO DESCRIBE GOD'S HOLY WORD. AND THEN THERE IS "OMNISCIENCE" WHICH MEANS "ONE HAVING TOTAL KNOWLEDGE", "OMNIPOTENCE" WHICH MEANS "ONE HAVING UNLIMITED...
WHAT IS YOUR "MOUNTAIN"? THIS MAY SOUND LIKE A DUMB QUESTION BUT LET ME EXPLAIN. WHEN JESUS WAS RETURNING TO JERUSALEM FROM BETHANY WITH HIS DISCIPLES, HE WAS HUNGRY AND SAW A FIG TREE WHICH WAS FULL OF LEAVES. WHEN HE GOT TO THE TREE, HE FOUND NO FIGS AND SAID TO THE FIG TREE "Let no fruit grow on thee henceforward for ever". IF YOU ARE WONDERING WHY HE DID THIS IT IS...
John 6:26, "Jesus answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw the miracles, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were filled."
HAVE YOU ACCEPTED JESUS AS YOUR SAVIOR? IF YOU HAVE AND REALLY KNOW THAT FOR CERTAIN, THAT IS WONDERFUL. IF YOU HAVEN'T, WHY? ARE YOU LIKE I WAS? I WENT TO CHURCH AND I KNEW I WANTED TO ACCEPT JESUS BUT WAS AFRAID AND UNSURE WHAT WAS GOING TO HAPPEN WHEN I WALKED DOWN THAT CHURCH ISLE. I WANTED TO MANY TIMES BUT JUST COULDN'T STEP OUT AND WALK DOWN THAT ISLE BY MYSELF. PRAISE GOD FOR THE BILLY GRAHAM CRUSADES WHERE HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE WENT DOWN THE ISLES. I STEPPED OUT AND WALKED DOWN WITH ALL THE OTHER PEOPLE. IT WAS WONDERFUL BUT I DIDN'T...
HAVE YOU STUDIED YOUR BIBLE TODAY? HOW ABOUT THIS WEEK? DO YOU REMEMBER WHEN THE LAST TIME YOU DID STUDY YOUR BIBLE? I DON'T MEAN JUST READING A VERSE OR CHAPTER OR TWO, I MEAN REALLY STUDYING. THE REASON I AM BRING THIS UP IS THAT I WAS THINKING ABOUT WHAT I USED TO DO. AT FIRST I WOULD READ THE BIBLE OFF AND ON AND THEN, SINCE I WAS A TRAVELING SALESMAN, I GOT THE BIBLE ON TAPE AND STARTED LISTENING TO IT. I FOUND IT MOST ENJOYABLE AND I WAS LEARNING SOMETHING NEW EVERY DAY. SINCE I AM RETIRED AND HAVE A LOT MORE TIME TO REALLY STUDY, I AM ENJOYING IT MUCH MORE. I WISH I HAD KNOWN BACK THEN HOW MUCH FUN IT IS, I CERTAINLY WOULD HAVE MADE MORE TIME FOR...
