Reflect on what has been learned studying God's Word today. Can you judge or verify its merit? Any insights?

Question

Where have you been drinking in the living water. Where in the bible are you studying.

The scriptures are not a teaching textbook, but they are a fountain of wisdom, on ALL aspects of human life.

Also WHERE are you feeding??? Just at home? Were you in church? Sunday school? Do you dare carry a bible with you, other than on Sunday???

God gave His book so that we could get to know Him better! Making any progress? Need to re-double efforts?

Do you even remember the sermon or lesson? Do you retain ideas to meditate on?

Care to share what's on your heart?

Unfortunately, childhood patterns are often hard to break. It becomes too easy to read the facinating stories in God's Word, as if they were parables; then close the Bible and say "now wasn't that a great story!"

We often don't know how to unlock the "adult truths" that lie deep within the recesses of every historical account in the Bible.

Were you inspired to do more studying? More sharing?

Answer 1

The Lord spoke to my heart in what we were preached & taught tonight in Galations. "Stand therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ has set you free" & "be not entangled again in the yoke of bondage'', that some people believe we have to do this & do that, & have some one standing over them to be contolled, yu might say, cause they can t handle the "liberty" we have in Christ.

We are at liberty, & dont do things , cause we have to , but because we want to for Christ. We dont work for our salvation, it is unmerrited. We non of us , are worthy of his blessings. & if we have broken 1 of the commandments, we have broken as much as them all, or will be just as "unjust' as the next person, ya dont have to be a murderer to be a sinner, etc. &

& the story of the one wanting workers, he went out the 1st thing in the morn. & offering 1 penny wages, , then the 3rd watch, & even down to the last hr, considering in this story they are pulling down 12 hr a day work. the one who was in the last call to work got just as much money as the one who had been working all day.

none of us is any better , in this illistration. whether we are saved at the last minite or been saved forever. this means other things too. That we should be grateful....

as the one who may be forgiven 20.00 & the man who is forgiven 1,000,,000.00 dollars, , which one is most forgiven? neither, they are both likewise forgiven. the one who is forgiven the most , had the most to be grateful for though. bu t both are just as forgiven........

& the one, who goes back to the Law, & tries all over again to keep the commandments, has either not really trusted Christ, or is saved but confused. & I thot of my son, whonow is in a "works" salvatoin church, It burdened me. I cannot change him, but I can change me. I have to accept it. ..

Does any of this make any sense. We * ( I ) really took it in.

Answer 2

In my wednesday night bible study we are learning about heresies in the church, and how to know which are heresies- it is very interesting and I am learning a lot!
I did not go to church yesterday, but my husband and two of my kids did. I am interested in knowing what bible study they are doing on Sundays and forgot to ask my husband!

Answer 3

He is here. G-d will not just make the world a better place. We are partners with G-d and thats why we are here. If G-d does everything, why would he bring us here and we would rely on him to much. G-d will only help if we act.

Answer 4

For one thing it's a hoax.
The Bible god is an invention of that pervert Moses and his syphilitic half-brother Aaron,
not to mention their shrieking one-tooth sister Myriam...

Answer 5

Bible does NOT think for you; DOES make you think;
so that in "the end" already written you all do not stink.

I discovered that Numbers 5 doesn't work anymore.
