Great verse there, @Marvelloustime ! :)

@2ndRateMind FYI....thread started...

@Mayflower Next installment here soon, I expect...? :)

@Mayflower Interesting that Isaiah 55.11: '...My word shall not return unto Me void...' is in the context of a comparison about the rain and the seed of the sower... I do love the words of Horatius Bonar: "Go, labour on, Spend and be spent, Thy joy to do the Master's will; It is the way the...

Hi @2ndRateMind There is worldly wisdom out there, certainly; as for Divine wisdom, the Lord Jesus in John 17.17 says: "Sanctify them through Thy truth: Thy word is truth".

@Mayflower Great verse! Ecclesiastes is quite similar to Proverbs, isn't it? :)

@Truman the Levite Good verse there...

Hi @runningwings It's interesting that prayer and fellowship are some of the things in which the early believers in Acts 2.42 continued steadfastly.

Hi @David in NJ I know you have reservations, which is fine; it's worth mentioning that all the young people with whom I have talked who have gotten Bible verses tattooed seem to have had them done for evangelistic reasons. I talked to a young man with one as recently as last week, and there...

This is your agenda, to "prove" (from the Bible, of all places) that the Word of God is supposedly not the rule of faith for the believer.

@PastorSteven FYI....another thread I started...

Hi again @Heart2Soul ; your avatar picture reminds me of Ephesians 6.17...

@Heart2Soul Spurgeon talks about historical instances of deliverance from enemies of the Gospel, so that the Gospel could freely circulate around the world. In other words, he says, look at the past and at the way God has led and delivered His people in order that they might serve Him more...

@Heart2Soul Great verse there; I have a compilation of meditations by C H Spurgeon, one of which is based on this verse....
