BibleEtc June 1,2014 I am committed daily to reading daily from the Old Testament; also from the New; something from the Qur’an; and a hadith. And, I am posting daily comments on Facebook. OT Reading the CEV (Contemporary English Version) in course. Job 33. Elihu says God gave us all life when He breathed into the clay. ((See Genesis 2:7. God formed the clay (adamah), breathed into it, and the man (Adam) became a living being. The Hebrew word is nephesh; the body is “ensouled” or enlivened. The body is not an envelope for the soul; the body and soul (the life) are coterminous.)) God is greater than any human, so why do we challenge Him? “Sometimes we are punished with a serious illness and aching joints.” I have trouble with the teaching of that verse. God sends angels and rewards us when we are innocent. I have sinned and done wrong; but God forgave me and rescued me from death.) I do see Job’s steadfast faith in God. NT now beginning session twelve of the 12 session survey, the origins of Jesus. Revelation 3:14-22. The letter to the seventh church, Laodicea, called “lukewarm. “We read the famous “behold I stand at the door and knock” often pictured as Jesus standing outside a door, knocking, with no exterior knob… we have to open the door. I like the promise: Jesus will come in and sup with us, and we with Him. The word “sup” is used both of the Lord’s Supper and also the Messianic banquet in heaven. Qur’an 8:41-42. When there is a battle, of the spoils, 20% must be given to God and the Messenger. Relatives, orphans, the needy, and travelers need to be taken care of. Hadith. Sahih Al-Bukhari. Book 4. Chapter 36. Verse 153. Page 125 A question about a hadith where the Prophet put water over the leather socks on his ankles. Once a hadith is given, there is no need to ask further questions. Blood sugar 87 Blood pressure before exercise 155/84. My weight has gone up to 214#. I got the munchies last night when I was cooking up some garbanzo bean soup and some of Duggars beef with tater tots. Now I am 76# under my gross maximum of 290#, and there still remain 34# of fat and blubber to get my goal of 180#. I have accomplished 70% of goal, with 30% remaining. This is my 161st day of Royal Canadian Air Force exercises so on the second chart, I am on D. I did ten sit-ups of ten, and need to do likewise seven more days to advance to the next level. Church of course today; and I may drop in on the homecoming at First Baptist, Micanopy, since I know homecomings are big deals for Baptist churches, and Addie was a member of that church when we first came to Micanopy. May go to Williston Rehab. While I cleaned the house for company, I still have a lot of work yet to do to get the place 100 % in order.
