Great Quote from a Christian TV Program

Hi, I was watching a tv program on a Christian channel in Feb this year when I heard a neat quote the presenter repeated to his audience.

"I'd rather know what I know and not know what I don't know rather than know what I don't know and not know what I do know."

The program was 'Footsteps of Paul' (www.biblicalworld.org) and the presenter was a guy called Tony Moore. He was referring to the wonderful priceless knowledge Christians have concerning the Truth of the Gospel Jesus brought from heaven. Ultimately, the only knowledge that is truly valuable is the Gospel and the teachings of Jesus (Yeshua) the Messiah. All that the world regards as wisdom and knowledge is of no ultimate importance if it is not compatible with the Gospel.

Bible Readings from my 2007 Diary (Part 2)

Sabbath greetings again from Cork county. I hope you enjoy reading, studying and knowing the Scriptures. I delight in sharing these precious verses from God's Word, the Holy Bible, with you. I hope you get a lot of spiritual benefit from reading them here. As mentioned in an earlier entry, I found a 2007 diary called 'Hopeful Thoughts' that has a Bible verse at the foot of each page, one page per week.

Bible Readings for March 2010

Sabbath greetings to you from my home in Cork county on Friday, 5th March. Sunset was soon after 6pm locally. That is when Sabbath began for me. I wish I had lots of neighbours who also kept it. I have been a Sabbath-keeper since March 1984. I was baptised by immersion on March 4th that year. I was 'only' 19 but never more sure of anything in my life that being baptised into the family of Almighty God was the right thing to do. Sadly, no one else in my family is interested in knowing what the Bible really teaches. They're all content to let other people do their thinking for them. Everyone needs to read the Bible every day to feed their spirit and draw closer to King Jesus.

Apologies for being a few days late in posting these wonderful Bible verses from my 'Gospel Gems' 2010 calendar. (Did anyone even notice???)

This finishes my labour of love for now. More Bible readings will be posted online soon. I hope someone somewhere will be touched by these wonderful words of the Spirit of God and lead him/her into a lifelong study of the Holy Bible. This Book alone contains the words that lead to eternal life. The Bible not only contains the words of God; it IS the Word of God!

Till next time, may God bless you and your family as you seek, love and obey Him and ask Him to guide you through your brief time here on Earth. Draw near to Him and He will draw near to you. We were never meant to 'go it alone.' We can only succeed with God's help!

"Blessed be the name of the Lord." Amen.

Bible readings from my 2007 diary

I recently saw a copy of my small 'Hopeful Thoughts' 2007 diary. Each small page had 7 horizontal spaces for a week. I had not written much in it at all during the entire year. It's about 98% blank. I would like to share with you the Bible reading/verse at the foot of each page in two parts. This is part one and it covers the verses for weeks 1-26. Part two will follow shortly. I'm not sure which version of the Holy Scriptures the publishers used but I will reproduce the reading as is for OT verses and for NT verses, I will use the NASB [New American Standard Bible, c. 1960] and the NLT [New Living Translation, c. 1996] versions as well. (**Where either the NASB or the NLT are identical to the diary version, I will not repeat it here.**)

May you be blessed as you read the words inspired by Almighty GOD Himself for our benefit and blessing. Enjoy and may God bless you today and during all of 2010.
