Saturday Reflection

Posting from GraceFullBible today - Thoughts of St. Paul  I think Romans 12 - 16 gives a basic handbook for the life as a disciple of Christ and living the Christian life. No one is perfect in this life except God, but in that these portions of scriptures give us a guide and direction in order to move forward in our lives with our brother, Jesus. Hear these messages of St. Paul ... Be holy;  Be transformed by the renewal of the Spirit;  Don’t think of yourselves more highly than others;  We are one body with many members;  Let love be genuine – hate what is evil – hold fast to what is good;  Build the community;  If possible live peaceably with everyone;  Help your enemies in all their needs;  Over come evil with good.  Let every person be subject to the government God has given to us;  Owe nothing except love one another;  Love your neighbor as yourself;  Watch – salvation is near.  Be tolerant to ...

Day 175 – Wednesday after the Pentecost Sunday 4

Read |  Day 175 | Wednesday |June 24 Isaiah 8: 1-10, 11-22 Isaiah 9: 1-7, 8– 10: 4 Isaiah 10: 5-19, 20-34 Isaiah 11: 1-16 Date | 740 BC Background |  The prophet Isaiah lived in the eighth and early seventh centuries BC. He was from Jerusalem and began his ministry in 740 BC, the year of King Uzziah’s death. The bulk of his ministry took place under Ahaz and Hezekiah. For most of the history of Judaism and Christianity, it was assumed that Isaiah wrote all sixty-six chapter of the book named after him. Beginning in the eighteenth century, biblical scholars began to argue, however, that the book shows clear signs of having been written over a longer period of time. Scholars are now nearly in universal agreement that there were three separate authors for the book, known as First, Second, and Third Isaiah. The First Isaiah wrote most of chapters 1-39 and is the prophet for whom the entire work is named. His influence was so great that he had disciples who carrie...
