Volume 11-10, Proverbs 2
https://biblehub.com/nkjv/proverbs/2.htm When I read this proverb, my mind immediately went back to Adam and Eve. Genesis 3, Verse 4: Then the serpent said to the woman, “You will not surely die. 5 For God knows that in the day you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing… Continue reading

Volume 11-9, Proverbs 1 – Part 2
https://biblehub.com/nkjv/proverbs/1.htm Happy Sabbath! I wish I could review each and every proverb, but there simply isn’t time for that. So as usual, we’ll hit the high notes that God moves me to discuss. One of the hardest things in life is for a child to obey their parents.

Volume 11-8, Proverbs 1 – Part 1
https://biblehub.com/proverbs/1.htm It’s no wonder our intelligence is declining. I lookup up the definition of a “proverb”, and the definition was “to speak proverbally” or to “offer a proverb”. Well, that was a big help! Thankfully, they offered synonyms, one of which fit, in my opinion. Maxim, Noun, (synonym of proverb): a general truth, fundamental principle,… Continue reading

Volume 11-6, 1 Kings 6-8
https://biblehub.com/nkjv/1_kings/6.htm Scripture doesn’t say, but short of Divine intervention, you know the Levites had to be constantly working on the portable temple, a tent with some fabric walls, to keep it in a state of repair and to shelter the Ark of the Covenant.

Volume 11-4, 1 Kings 4-5
https://biblehub.com/nkjv/1_kings/4.htm These two chapters enlighten us as to the condition of Israel under the reign of Solomon and his preparation to build the temple.

Satan Has Infiltrated the Church
Normally I try to study the Bible at least once a day, sometimes twice, then post my opinion on what I’ve read. Each day before Bible Study, I pray that the Lord sends His Spirit to me to teach me, because I no longer feel that I can trust “The Church, Inc.” And I am… Continue reading

Volume 11-1, 1 Kings 1-2
https://biblehub.com/nkjv/1_kings/1.htm God’s Will will be done. Sometimes we thwart His Will and it takes longer to get done that what He had planned, but His Will will be done. We’ve seen it happen before, and we’re seeing it again. God clearly intends for Solomon to become King to follow David. Somewhere along the lines, man… Continue reading
