25 things

No catches. Just the peace in knowing that you were able to share God's love and wisdom to all those you have contact with and even bless someone you don't know. Have a blessed day!

1. Give God what's right -- not what's left.

2. Man's way leads to a hopeless end! -- God's way leads to an endless hope.

3. A lot of kneeling will keep you in good standing.

4. He who kneels before God can stand before anyone.

5. In the sentence of life, the devil may be a comma--bu t never let him be the period.

6. Don't put a question mark where God puts a period.

7. Are you wrinkled with burden? Come to the church for a face-lift.

8. When praying, don't give God instructions - just report for duty.

9. Don't wait for six strong men to take you to church.

10. We don't change God's message -- His message changes us.

11. The church is prayer-conditioned.

12. When God ordains, He sustains.

13. WARNING: Exposure to the Son may prevent burning.

15. Most people want to serve God, but only in an advisory position.

16. Suffering from truth decay? Brush up on your Bible.

17. Exercise daily -- walk with the Lord.

18. Never give the devil a ride -- he will always want to drive.

19. Nothing else ruins the truth like stretching it.

20. Compassion is difficult to give away because it keeps coming back.

23. Give Satan an inch & he'll be a ruler.

2. Then forward to whomever you choose.

 Dear Gentle Reader,

 It's always wonderful when God brings friends back into your life. For example this week I ran across a dear friend from England Nevelle Stevens who was responsible for bringing me to London for the first of many Bible Conferences. Nevelle and his wife Hazel were just grand and treated me far better that I deserved. What Nevelle didn't tell me was that I was to be the only speaker [my subject was "Knowing God] a subject certainly to bring tears to the eyes of the strongest man. 

However I pressed on and found that the dozen or so conferences were quite informative (at least to me) for as much as I tried, and as hungry as the people were  for the Word of God they were in many cases unable to understand what I was talking about. 

These dear brothers and Sisters in Christ who loved God and His Word didn't have a clue beyond the basics and had seemly no idea how to get past the simple words to the deep things.  "The Words  of Scripture are for Children The thoughts are for men" Seed of the Women"    Arthur Custance

And so by the time we finished I had determined my path that was to teach and to preach the Word of God (The Bible) so that people could understand the grace of God.  But beyond that that people might get to know HIM.

Scripture Institute is a Biblical Research Study group. http://www.studiesinscripture.bravehost.com We are not connected with any church or denomination . Our concern is solely with the correct understanding of the Bible, as God intends.  Many Theologians, Bible teachers, Pastors, Scholars, and Students comprise and have contributed 1000's of hours to Scripture Institute.  Not all agree, Some are more conservative than others. Some are in the Vanguard in the Study of Holy Scripture. But we all agree to this one thing! "No gain has ever been made by standing still."  We believe in the GRACE and goodness of GOD and with His help we shall learn all that He wills in His good pleasure.    Our desire like Ezra of old is to "Open up the Book".  Join with us, add your name to those who truly love  the Word of God. And want to learn . (2 Tim. 2:15)
