VOICE OF THE LIVING GOD

from Barbara's Bible

#Voice recognition is amazing!  I was in a small dress shop last week asking the salesperson about an item when a woman at the checkout called out my name while coming over to give me a hug.  We had not seen each other for over ten years, but she said she recognized my voice.  We all have distinct detonation, accent, and tone when phrasing our words which makes us distinctive.  I have always been partial to a low mellow voice which I find very pleasant.  I even married a man with a God given voice that was so suited for proclaiming God’s Word to a listening crowd.  Even today, I recognize Nat King Cole’s voice from recordings like “When I Fall In Love It Will Be Forever” that he made back in the 50s.  Here in 2017 I enjoy the group Home Free with their great voices.   Do you have voices that you immediately recognize?  Could it be a singer, preacher, friend, teacher,  spouse, child, mother, or father?  What are your ears tuned into?  Prov.7:24 “Listen unto Me now..and attend to the words of My mouth” Is.28:23 “Give your ear, and HEAR MY VOICE: listen and hear my speech”  John10:27 “Jesus said, My sheep HEAR MY VOICE AND I KNOW THEM AND THEY FOLLOW ME”  Rom.10:17 “So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the WORD OF GOD”  Rev.3:20″I stand at the door and knock: IF ANY MAN HEAR MY VOICE, and open the door, I will come into him and will sup with him and he with Me”  John 15:11 Jesus said,These things I have spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you and that your joy might be full”  While I have mentioned two musical voices that bring me joy there is another message in my choices for I pray you too will Fall in love forever with Jesus Christ so you will be Home Free with Him ETERNALLY!

#Anthropology, the study of man, encompasses our history and our present.  Can that story be told apart from #God?  Where does the theory of evolution agree with Creationism?  Where do they begin to diverge?  How does the Bible explain the origins of tribes, nations, and languages?  Does the idea of different races come from Evolution or Creation?  What does the current population tell us about how long ago the human race came into existence?  How much do other scientific fields agree with the theory of evolution?

Next week we will dig into Geology and what both science and the Bible say about it.

THE LIVING GOD #TRUE VINE

from Barbara's Bible

Do you have #clinging #vines around you?  Are they a plus or a minus for you?  #Poison ivy is a real problem that I try to eradicate; however, I cultivate my sweet confederate jasmine.  Here in the South we don’t even want to talk about the aggressive Kudzu vine onslaught that overpowers our landscape.      Whether in our soil or our soul, we can have a clinging vine.  We have a choice – eradicate or cultivate.  Jesus speaks about himself in chapter 15 of John, “I AM THE TRUE VINE….ABIDE IN ME, AND I IN YOU.  As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it remains attached to Me to bring forth much fruit- for without Me, you can do nothing.” Is it time for you to weed out and  pull the life choking vines from your life that are keeping you from being productive?  If so, I pray you will spend time nurturing the TRUE VINE who has promised -“I will never leave you or forsake you” Heb.13:5 – John 14:18 “I will not leave you comfortless:  I will come to you …because I live, you shall live also”

#Biology, the #human #body is an incredibly complex machine.  For that matter, so are the animals.  Who has the better explanation as to how we were formed, #Science or the #Bible?  How do each of these explain the process of going from non-life to life?  What do we know about DNA, inheritance, and variation?  How about mutation, are they usually helpful or harmful?  How does Creation better explain the difference between cats and dogs?  How has Evolution been previously wrong about vestigial organs?  What is interesting about the word used to describe God’s creation activity?

Next week we will discuss the field of Anthropology and what both science and the Bible say about it.

THE LIVING GOD # HEIRS

from Barbara's Bible

Strange Inheritance is a human interest show on Fox that takes a very insightful look into what individuals treasure and pass onto their heirs.  I am amazed by the variety of “objects” that people amass from photos, letters, cards, toys, cars, houses, land to an autographed book.  Once the heirs have their inheritance they are on a quest to find out the true value of what they have been bequeathed.  I find Strange Inheritance  episodes very parallel to  scriptures in God’s Holy Word about His Heirs and their Everlasting Compounding Inheritance.  How, you say?  Have you read in the BIBLE where we are told the true value of our inheritance as heirs of our living GOD?    Romans 9: tells us, 8.”It is not the children of the flesh who are children of God, but the children of the promise are regarded as descendants.” 8:1,”Now there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. 14.For all who are being led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God..24. not Jews only, but Gentiles – I will call those who were not my people, My people.. they shall be called SONS OF THE LIVING GOD”  for our inheritance is stated in Rom.6:23 “Wages of sin is death, but the FREE GIFT OF GOD IS ETERNAL LIFE IN CHRIST JESUS OUR LORD.”  Eph.1:13,14 “In CHRIST you have the message of truth and your salvation – having believed, you are sealed in Him with the HOLY SPIRIT of PROMISE who is given as a PLEDGE of OUR INHERITANCE with a view to the redemption of GOD’S OWN POSSESSION, to the praise of His glory. 18. I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened, so that you may know what is the hope of His call what are the RICHES OF THE GLORY OF HIS INHERITANCE IN THE SAINTS and what is the surpassing greatness of His power toward us who believe.”   You are an heir, but what is your inheritance?  Strange as it may seem, this world is not your permanent home.  What will you inherit in the hereafter?

Did I say we would discuss #astrology this week?  It’s more like #astronomy with a passing mention of why our lives are not governed by the stars.  But, can we learn from the heavens?  Have the stars been used as signs?  What are some of the scientific theories about the creation of the stars and planets?  What have our observations and explorations confirmed about what is in the Bible about creation?  Why create so many stars?  What do stars have to do with angels?  How can we reconcile some of the astronomical events mentioned in the Bible?

Next week we will discuss the field of Biology and what both science and the Bible say about it.
