Hebrews 1.8 says: 'Unto the Son He saith, Thy Throne, O God, is for ever and ever'. Philippians 2.11 says: 'Jesus Christ is Lord'.

This thread has been going since 2018... :) No reason to close it, I guess... :)

@Cachalot I like your phrase 'deep dives in the Word'. Your subsequent quote from Psalm 139 is very apt. :)

We were talking about this verse in the tattoo thread so I thought I would post it here also. cc @Cachalot

@Cachalot Faith based tattoos are out there and it's inevitable that they will be discussed (hence the - now defunct - poll), like them or even loathe them! :) When my wife and I talked to a young lady with John 3.16 in full tattooed on her wrist area, it would be wildly inaccurate to say that...

@Cachalot Actually I agree and sympathize exactly with what you say. It is and ought to be an individual thing.

@Desire Of All Nations Hebrews 7.12 says the law was changed. Hebrews 7.19 says that what the New Testament believer now has is better than the law.

There are three distinct groups of people: Jews, Gentiles and the church of God (1 Cor. 10.32). The rapture by definition relates to the church which began at Pentecost.

@Ziggy Thank-you! :)

@soul man Interesting passages in Psalm 2 and Psalm 61.1-3: "Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? 2 The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the Lord, and against his anointed, saying, 3 Let us break their bands asunder, and...

Romans 8.38-39: "For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord."

True.

@UnrulyBeauty Psalm 121: keithos dot com

@UnrulyBeauty @Wynona just quoted Psalm 27... :)

"But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept." (1 Corinthians 15.20) "For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: 17 Then we which are...

1 Thess. 4: 'The dead in Christ shall rise first...'

Indeed, the 'continued steadfastly' in Acts 2.42 is ultimately a matter of what motivates the heart of the believer...

@Ziggy Good to see you! Got any more favorite Psalms? :)

@Nancy Over the years there have been a lot of useful little snippets, meditations, etc. Of course, such publications are no replacement for the regular reading of the Scriptures also.

I certainly take your point there. Some good thoughts. I guess there is a difference between occasional pastimes, etc. and being utterly dominated by them.
