Word of Life

Hebrews 2:1-4

New Revised Standard Version (NRSV)
"Therefore we must pay greater attention to what we have heard, so that we do not drift away from it. ..It was declared at first through the Lord, and it was attested to us by those who heard him, while God added his testimony, by signs and wonders and various miracles, and by gifts of the Holy Spirit, distributed according to his will."

1 John 1:1-4
King James Version (KJV)
"That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life; (For the life was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and shew unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us;) That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ. And these things write we unto you, that your joy may be full."

Prophecies of Christ and Their Fulfillment

Prophecies of Christ and Their Fulfillment
This will be a work in progress. These (prophecies of Messiah) form a thread through the Bible.
Genesis 3:15 - Luke 22:53 (hour of darkness), Hebrews 2:14, 1 John 3:8
Genesis 12:3 - Acts 3:25-26, Gal 3:8 (all earth blessed through "the seed" Jesus)

Blessing and Cursing

My grand-daughter, early this morning as she was waiting for the school bus told me, basically, what she was being taught is the the United Nations (all the world?) is for peace but Israel refuses, saying "my God told me no". And that the six days war was a number of nations simply standing around Israel doing nothing (didn't mention their joyful communications they were saying to one another about what their plans were) but Israel said if we're going to win (survive?) we better attack now. (Well that last part's true. And they prayed.) And, she was told, Israel is keeping Palestine. [Israel has agreed to peace a number of times and it's always been broken, and they've given back land (people left to allow for the war when said nations were 'standing' surrounding Israel) and they get rocket fired upon from that land now.] ..Who's the 'good' guy? "..the tree is known by its fruit" Matthew 12:33. (An extremist Islamic beheading takes about 4 minutes of sawing.) "..the god of this world.." 2 Corinthians 4:4, is not the creator and father God. [Jacob/Israel, "cursed be every one that curseth thee, and blessed be he that blesseth thee" Genesis 27:29.]
