Recommended: Bible memory verses

Every Bible verse I've ever memorized has developed a memory. In 2nd grade, I presented Luke 2:4 in the Children's Musicals in my church play; in 4th grade, I repeated John 3:16 to myself for an hour so I could win a balloon animal; and in 7th grade, I went to Hume Lake Christian Camp where we gained points for every memory verse we could recite and my team memorized the entirety of Romans 12. All of these verses have grown up with me and have helped me make my decisions. And, just like Romans 12:2 says, they have helped my mentality be "not of the world." However, it is a real challenge because for one, I live in it. Society has started to thrive on being against God's word and it is tricky to stand against it. It's nearly impossible since

    Much like the laws in the Old Testament, the law is God solving a problem before it occurs (Maxwell, 2010). As Reggie Joiner reminds us: “Relationship comes before rules” (Maxwell, 2010, 176). If a relationship forms, rules are easier to embrace. Rules are a tool to keep the ship and everyone on it going in the same direction. Shared systems of values strengthen partnerships minimizing the possibility of comprise. Values determine our actions. Our conscience can be a fickle thing if not tended to. A good study of 1 Timothy 1:5 will sharpen the cause for keeping the conscience in order and know that a good conscience is the product of a pure heart. Finally, we trust fully in God’s promises to comfort us, but need to share that same comfort through an empowerment to do so from God himself. Kept promises are the glue that holds all the guidelines together and shuttles them into the heart and soul of mankind by building

  • Greek And Hebrews Research Paper

    1142 Words  | 3 Pages

    The Archaic Greeks and Hebrews, two nations of people with very distinct worldviews, were driven to make sense of their vast ever-changing world while trying to survive it. The earlier ancient Hebrews lived nomadically, facing turmoil and enslavement. The Archaic Greeks, coming out of an isolated dark age, began to civilize and grow. Despite having over a millennia difference between their emergences, the need for social and political structure stood paramount. The key differences between the cultures are the way they interpreted and used their separate religions, governed themselves, and created a standard by which to live by.

    Psalm 115 does not have a documented writer and it is not even known when it was written. We do however, know that it was written in a time when there were not many Jews. Some estimate that it was before the exile when the Assyrians and the Babylonians took them away however it is not known exactly. Many believe that the Psalm was written during times when the church of God was in trouble and its enemies were creating a threat. The church during ths time did not complain about the situation it had found itself in but placed its confidence in God. By having confidence in God the Church came out with a triumph. In the Septuagint Psalm 114 and 115 are joined to create one complete Psalm.

    Exodus 21 about the laws that will or was governing the Ancient society upon slavery. They were addressing the masters and their slaves, the husband and his wife, the father and his children. In any consideration of the rights of persons, those of the slave class naturally presented themselves first of all, since they were the most liable to infraction. Slaves might be either natives or foreigners. A Hebrew could become a slave through crime (Exodus 22:3); through indebtedness (Leviticus 25:39); (3) through his father’s right to sell him (Nehemiah 5:5). Foreign slaves might be either prisoners taken in war, or persons bought of their owners (Leviticus 25:45.

  • Romans 12 1-2 Analysis

    409 Words  | 1 Pages

    I recently wrote Romans 12:1-2 out on a hot pink index card, it is hanging at eye level in my work area where I can read it every day. Transformation has been on my heart and in my head for over three years now. As a believer, I am drawn to it, I crave it, and I know God wants it in every area of my life. I also believe in the transformation process God wants us set apart which means “we are not to be conformed to this world.” We are to be different, our lives should show it by how we act, speak, and in the things, we listen to, read, or watch. People should know us by our actions.

  • Narrative – My Foolish Faith

    533 Words  | 2 Pages

    Once a person agrees to accept the entire Bible as God presents it in the Bible, the test of faith (or mere hope) comes. A mere hoper won't bother (or dare) to keep exactly what God says; a person with true faith will not only try but succeed when he does. Because I have faith in Christ, have escaped the corruption that is in the world, am a partaker of the Divine Nature, and have received many great and precious promises from God Himself, my goal in life is to be diligent in my service of righteousness to God. The society we live in, like any that has seen the noonday sun since the day God spoke it into existence, is utterly depraved, and I am too. It is God himself in my life who works in everything in my life that may seem to be faith, virtue, knowledge, self-control, patience, godliness, brotherly kindness, and charity.

    The characteristic of a good man that "his delight is in the law of the Lord, and that he meditates on it day and night" (Psalm 1:2). "Give yourself to the public reading of Scripture," says Paul to Timothy (I Timothy 4:13). "This book of the law," says God to Joshua, "shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it" (Joshua 1:8). “Whatever was written in earlier times was written for our instruction" (Romans 15:4). The word of God is "profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be adequate, equipped for every good work" (2 Timothy 3:16). If we ever think we are above our Bibles, we shall soon lie open to all manner of delusion, and be in great danger of making shipwreck of faith and a good conscience. This the apostle calls the "sword of the Spirit" (Ephesians 6:17).

    The desire to study God’s word to obtain a personal connection is a pursuit for many believers. Beginning a course to study and engage with the word at a collegiate level can be overwhelming and intimidating. Even though one may read the word countless times during their lifetime, understanding the reading material academically and historically is a different concept to master. Personally, I was apprehensive about my overall ability to retain the information and comprehend the context of the scientific and historical aspect of God’s word. However, Tarwater wrote in a manner that was engaging and invited me into the historical importance of the words and understanding God. From beginning to end, Tarwater
