@Nancy: I love 1 Thess. 5: "Rejoice ever more, Pray without ceasing. In every thing give thanks..." :)

Hi @Houstonparzival FYI....thread I started; John 3.16 and its context in the chapter are a really great study, for reading over and over. They have served as many an introduction to Christianity. (You mentioned a book you don't quite remember the title of, on the other thread.)

Hi; good to see you, @Houstonparzival

Hi @Nancy Sounds like the Parable of the Sower also.... Hope you had a great Christmas....

@Mayflower Anyway, a lot of earrings will have been given as gifts over this Christmas period (not to speak of tattoo gifts also). Including men receiving earrings, right?

@GodsGrace I reckon anyway over this Christmas period a lot of ppl will have acquired tattoos as gifts. Including a whole lot of rather conservative, modest and unassuming ppl: ink is soooo widespread now.

@GodsGrace The Lord Jesus as the Lamb of God was the only sinless substitute. If Joseph had really been the father, this is how sin would have been passed on.

@Cachalot Really glad to see you up and running again with the Bible verse posting! :)

@Cachalot I wish more conversational Bible studies operated on this principle...

John 19.30 and what it means are really pivotal, right?

God bless you guys richly...

This is what I'm probably thinking of....

@Pearl What I find remarkable is that Mary sang in Luke 2: "my spirit hath rejoice in God my Saviour". She was so privileged; clearly she needed a Saviour also.

Hi @Pearl I hope you have / had been having a great 50th anniversary! :) You guys have probably watched lots of TV series together over the years....

Didn't Wells Fargo also become a financial house? there was a branch near us, I think... Didn't see it on TV, though...

@soul man Such a searching verse there indeed; but this is the nature of true faith, right?

@Rudometkin A reading of passages such as Ephesians 2 shows that we really do depend on the wondrous intervention of God's grace; otherwise we will be led astray by our own biases, sin and rebellious tendencies.

I guess so, yes...

@Moriah's Song Father, Son and Holy Spirit are indeed overwhelmingly present in Scripture.

@Mayflower Good point about the Bible, indeed. So do any of the video games that you use display some element of rough and tumble? I don't know a lot about them, but I suspect a lot of them would.
