  • Priorities

    I really love this verse...and it has nothing to do with the context! I just love that Jesus is explaining priorities to the disciples. "You'll always have the poor around to help when you can, but I…

    Psalm 15:4 (MSG)

  • Psalm 19:11

    Psalm 19:11 (MSG)
    There's more: God's Word warns us of danger and directs us to hidden treasure. Otherwise how will we find our way? Or know when we play the fool? Clean the slate, God, so we can start the day fresh! Keep me from stupid sins, from thinking I can take over your work; Then I can start this day sun-washed, scrubbed clean of the grime of sin. These are the words in my mouth; these are what I chew on and pray. Accept them when I place them on the morning altar, O God, my Altar-Rock, God, Priest-of-My-Altar.

    I like these questions from God...Do you know where the light comes from? And Where Darkness lives?

  • Know thy enemy

    Interesting here how satan demonstrates his knowledge of scripture as well. Knowing is one thing, doing is another.

  • Babel, why?

    Why does God go out of his way to cause confusion and to stop progress? I understand not wanting these people to build a monument based on their own works (not giving glory to God)...but why cause the…

  • Question:

    Didn't god already say that he would limit life to 120 years? Why is Noah 601 years old if God was going to limit life to 120 years?

  • First Sacrifice

    Is God providing an animal skin (clothing) for Adam and Eve the first animal sacrifice? I think so!

  • Satan's Argument

    Here, Satan intentionally misrepresents what god said to make his argument sound more valid..."Did God really say to not eat from ANY of the trees?!" Sort of an appeal to the irrational.
