Tuesday 14 July 2015  This is Lesson # 27 for the One Year Bible Class that is conducted at our Church 19 July 2015. These comments are prepared to be considered after the class members read their Bible to know God.

July 12--Why did the Jews have two worship centers, one in Jerusalem and one in Gibeon? What qualities did the men who came to David demonstrate that is needed today in the church? What did Paul want to do for those in Rome? What promise did God show at Psalm 9:17? What warning did Proverbs 19:4-5 give to the readers? What did you learn about GOD today?

This week we will continue to read the history of the Jews that were in Jerusalem before the destruction of the Temple and then many were carried into Babylon and now some are returning to the promise land. In 100-50 or even10 years will your grandchildren know what happened in your family today? Even though we do not record our history, God writes down all of our deeds.

Mon-7-13-1^st Chronicles 15:1-16:36, Romans 1:18-32, Psalm 10:1-15 & Proverbs 19:6-7.

Tue-7-14-1^st Chronicles16:37-18:17, Romans 2:1-24, Psalm 10:16-18 & Proverbs 19:8-9.  

Wed-7-15-1^st Chronicles 19:1-21:30, Romans 2:25-3:8 Psalm 11:1-7 & Proverbs 19:10-12.

Thu-7-16-1^st Chronicles 22:1-23:32, Romans 3:9-31, Psalm 12:1-8 & Proverbs 19:13-14.

Sat-7-18-1^st Chronicles 26:12-27:34, Romans 4:13-5:5, Psalm 14:17 & Proverbs 19:17.

Sun-7-19-1^st Chronicles 28:1-29:30, Romans 5:6-21, Psalm 15:1-5 & Proverbs 19:18-19.

From the Chronicles we see the benefits of keeping records and journals. Why was Obed-edom blessed? Did you find Psalm 96? What connection did you discover between King Saul, David and Jesus Christ? What principle of war did you learn at chapter 19:13? What was recorded for the 1^st time in 21:1? What did the LORD promise David in chapter 22? What stewardship principle did God give at chapter 27? What charge did the LORD make concerning Solomon in chapter 28? Did you pray back 29:10-19 for your family?

From the epistle sent to Rome we learn the conflict that Christians were facing and the conduct of unbelievers that offended the LORD. What warning did you receive at chapter 2? How is the hypocrite described in chapter 2? Do you think God considers you as a Jew because of what is recorded in chapter 2? How do you explain Romans 3:10 to a child? How are the Blessed defined at chapter 4? What did you learn about faith from the testimony of Abraham? How has Romans 5:8 changed your life? What is the difference between the moral and ceremonial law?

What comfort do you enjoy by reading and praying back the Psalms? What causes a person to sense Psalm 13 is real and in effect in their life? What does the Bible call a person who says there is no God? Who shall abide in thy tabernacle? Who shall dwell in thy holy hill?

How did you relate the Proverbs to Chronicles? Do you practice 19:11, 16, 20 and 23? Do you seek understanding, act diligently and desire to be prudent because you have read your Bible to know God? The bottom line in this exercise is to cause people to Read the Bible to know God. The will of God expressed in the scriptures is that God wants all to hear the Truth, confess their sin, repent and agree with God, Accept His forgiveness, receive the gift of eternal life by placing all of your hope in the finished work of Jesus Christ according to the scriptures. You must be born again. Read the Book of John in the New Testament verses 1-36.

Tuesday, 7 July 2015 and we are nearer to the end than last week. Maranatha! We that have and know The Blessed Hope rejoice in that any moment we may be called out of this world and meet the Lord Jesus Christ in the air!!! Unbelievers will not hear nor know His voice and they will be left behind to deal with the spirit of the antichrist, yet everyone of us will be somewhere 1007+ years from now, either with GOD or with Satan. All dead people and unbelievers will suffer the wrath of GOD.

Lesson # 26 for the One Year Bible Class at VBC, 12 July 2015.

This week we will continue the review of the history of the Jews as recorded retelling the acts of David and the kings of Judah. This may have been prepared after the captivity of Judah in Babylon and in preparations for the return to Jerusalem. 1st Chronicles will focus on David and 2nd Chronicles will focus on Solomon. We will see again the provisions of God and the failures and faults of men; use this review to enjoy the attributes of Almighty God, The LORD. Refine your concept of God and continue to work out your written testimony as you practice writing out your prayers. Read your Bible to know God. Read each day Psalm 5 and strive to get right, be right, do right and don’t quit.

Mon-6-1^st Chronicles 2:18-4:4, Acts 24:1-27, Psalm 4:1-8 & Proverbs 18:16-18.

Sun-12-1^st Chronicles 12:19-14:17, Romans 1:1-17, Psalm 9:13-20 & Proverbs 19:4-5.

As we read Acts we will see how God presents the gospel using Paul as he appears before Felix, Festus and Agrippa. Get your testimony of how, where and when The LORD changed your life and be prepared to defend your faith in Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour.

What did you learn about people from Acts 24:25, 25:9, 26:27-29, 27:21-2528:23-29? What attributes did you note in these verses that illuminated God? When was the letter for the believers in Rome prepared and who delivered this epistle? How is your “faith” enlarged by the Law and Grace of God? What does it mean to be “separated” unto the gospel of God?

As we re-read the Psalms we ought to be reminded of the safety, protection and provisions of God. Take time to note the names of God and update your list of His titles and names. Discipline yourself to praise Him every day as you rejoice in His great mercy.

We are reminded in the Proverbs how terrible and powerful the tongue is to hurt and destroy, yet with our tongue we have the opportunity to bless our family and friends. We are challenged to walk in “our” integrity and to not be perverse. We ought to strive to be a true witness and be sure to not speak lies. O that our testimony was the same as that of our Lord’s.

This is not the time to coast or rely on our past accomplishments. Take time to meditate on the scriptures as you read. Hear what saith the Spirit to the churches and believe the promises, provision and conditions. Say often Psalm 1:1-6 and recognize that God does know the way of the righteous. Psalm 19:14 “Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer.”  

The sin of "UNBELIEF" will separate saved/forgiven sinners from those sinners that hear and do not believe nor receive the Truth that Jesus saves sinners.. Please get right, be right, do right and don't quit. Consider 1st Chronicles 4:9-10, be as Jabez. Take 3 minuets to read in the New Testament the 3rd Chapter of John verses 1-11, 12, 13-36.

Monday, 29 June 2015, and still there are many in the world that have never heard any Bible Truths in their own language. How many verses do you have access to and yet you have not responded to the wooing of the Holy Spirit, God The Father for Jesus' sake. What would you have for us to do today so that you might hear, trust, fear and receive the love of GOD and salvation from the wrath of God. Read your Bible and believe what you read, get right, be right, do right and don't quit.

Monday, 8 June 2015, perhaps the day of the return in the clouds of The Lord Jesus Christ. Are you excited about the "rapture" of the Church? Are you prepared for the seven years of the tribulation? Every one of us will either be with The Lord in heaven or we will be left behind to suffer the tribulation. It is as if at the crucifixion of Jesus he was suspended between two thieves and there before they died one ask for forgiveness and was accepted while the other did not believe and died in his sins. God has done all of His works of salvation and now He is waiting for you to respond to Holy Ghost calling to your spirit. It is your choice to hear and believe God's Gospel, repent and confess your sin of unbelief, and receive the gift of eternal life.

This is Lesson # 22  for the One Year Bible Class that will ne conducted at our church,        14 June 2015. As you read this week look for a life changing principle. Review your list of the names of God that you have recorded. Meditate on the promises that you have noted and start writing out your prayers. As you pray consider the soon return of the Lord Jesus Christ. When you begin to adore Him use his name (s), then confess your sins, recall scriptures to be thankful and then ask for things that God already know you need.
