...................................................................LET US LEARN TOGETHER WHAT IS GOOD. Job 34:4b(NIV)................................................................Some people see the Bible as a long and boring book filled with incidents and events from the lives of ancient people who probably never existed. The biblical stories are seen as fables. Notably, Romans 15:4 reveals: For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope.(KJV) In this blog, many of the situations and conversations found in the divinely inspired Scriptures of the Holy Bible have been placed in categories that correspond to expressive sayings and phrases. Reference information, background information and links connecting the people and places are given to help you find a place to begin reading the Bible for yourself.

Each and Every One

From a letter written by the apostle Paul (Saul),
with Sosthenes,
to believers in Corinth and everywhere, years after
was betrayed, arrested, crucified, buried in a tomb,
resurrected, seen by over 500 people, and returned to heaven:

Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I have given order to the churches of Galatia, even so do ye. Upon the first day of the week let every one of you lay by him in store, as God hath prospered him, that there be no gatherings when I come. And when I come, whomsoever ye shall approve by your letters, them will I send to bring your liberality unto Jerusalem. And if it be meet that I go also, they shall go with me.-1 Corinthians 16:1-4

Reference Information:
gatherings = logeiai = collection

liberality = charin = favor, grace, kindness

Reference Scriptures: 
For it hath pleased them of Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor saints which are at Jerusalem.-Romans 15:26

Only they would that we should remember the poor; the same which I also was forward to do.-Galatians 2:10
