The Meaning Of Life

https://biblehub.com/nkjv/1_kings/14.htm Sound familiar? It should, part of it were studied yesterday. While a chronological Bible can help put things in the order of events, it is impossible to put everything truly in order unless you take various passages of each book and put them in order. We can see that Chronicles documented the reign of… Continue reading

https://biblehub.com/nkjv/2_chronicles/10.htm So, Rehoboam is the King of Judah, and Jeroboam is the King of Israel after the kingdom was torn in half. They both had sons named Abijah. Jeroboam’s son Abijah, not the Abijah who was the son of Rehoboa, became ill, so Jeroboam sent his wife to find the prophet Ahijah. Ahijah is like… Continue reading

https://biblehub.com/nkjv/1_kings/12.htm Once again, not hopping around wherever I choose, just studying the Bible in chronological order of events rather than how the books are categorized, so we’re back to the Books of Kings and Chronicles. And I hope you are smarter than I (of which I have no doubt), because here is where I always… Continue reading

https://biblehub.com/nkjv/ecclesiastes/10.htm Allow me to babble for a second. I was struck by the first verse of Chapter 10 talking about how flies putrify the perfumers ointment. I just watched a YouTube video this past week about how cowboys ate in the 19th Century. Obviously there was no refrigeration, and outside of a hotel, the only… Continue reading

https://biblehub.com/nkjv/ecclesiastes/9.htm Evil spirits exist. I’m not talking about ghosts from dead people, I’m talking about evil spirits conjured up by Satan, his fallen angels. When Saul went to the seer, and she reportedly brought back the spirit of Samuel, it wasn’t Samuel, but rather one of Satan’s fallen angels imitating Samuel. There is a story,… Continue reading

https://biblehub.com/nkjv/ecclesiastes/7.htm Once again, there are valuable lessons in these two chapters of the Book of Ecclesiastes, but not enough time to discuss each and every aspect. But I want to bring to light a very valuable lesson in Chapter 8 and how it certainly applies today. Our nation, over the last couple of decades, had… Continue reading

https://biblehub.com/nkjv/ecclesiastes/6.htm Many online Bibles have added headings over various sections of scripture something not normally found in a print Bible. And when I opened the Bible app this morning, the title of the first section of this chapter is, “Wealth is NOT the goal of life.” And that quote is certainly fitting. I wanted to… Continue reading

https://biblehub.com/nkjv/ecclesiastes/4.htm Now I’m perplexed, as there are many things here that I disagree with. So it has caused me to think about myself, my thoughts, my opinions, and whether or not I’m wrong. Then again, maybe I’m just not understanding. Right out of the gate, Verse 1, “the tears of the oppressed… have no comforter…”… Continue reading

https://biblehub.com/nkjv/ecclesiastes/2.htm As I said yesterday, I’m not smart enough to fully understand this book. Solomon proceeds to tell us that everything we do is in vain, but turns around and tells us when should enjoy life while we’re here, eating, drinking, and being merry. I’m guessing, in my mind, that is a way to tell… Continue reading

https://biblehub.com/nkjv/ecclesiastes/1.htm The book of Ecclesiastes is another book attributed to Solomon, and the title mean book of wisdom literature. And it is another book that I have trouble comprehending because of my lack of intelligence. You can read the scripture, and I at least, see different meanings to it, can’t decide which one is correct,… Continue reading
