...................................................................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.

Get to Gettin'

And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves, And said unto them, It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves. And the blind and the lame came to him in the temple; and he healed them. And when the chief priests and scribes saw the wonderful things that he did, and the children crying in the temple, and saying, Hosanna to the son of David; they were sore displeased. And said unto him, Hearest thou what these say? And Jesus saith unto them, Yea; have ye never read, Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings thou hast perfected praise? And he left them, and went out of the city into Bethany; and he lodged there.-Matthew 21:12-17***Isaiah the prophet received visions and messages from the Lord God when Uzziah (Azariah) was the 9th king, and  Uzziah's son Jotham, was the 10th king, and Jotham's son Ahaz, was the 11th king, and Ahaz's son Hezekiah was the 12th king ruling Judah, the southern nation in the Promised Land. Isaiah received revelations about the kingdom to come, and the Christ, who had yet to be born. Over 700 years after Isaiah received the revelations, Jesus the Christ, the Son of God, was born. Jesus was conceived of the Holy Spirit in the womb of Mary, a virgin, and Jesus was born into the tribe of Judah, the birth tribe of all of Judah's kings, to Mary and her husband Joseph when Mary was a virgin. Approximately 30 years after Jesus was born to Joseph and Mary, Jesus was baptized in the Jordan River by Mary's relative John the Baptist, from the tribe of Levi. Jesus having prayed, the heavens tearing open, the Holy Spirit descended as a dove and lit upon Jesus. The Lord God in heaven audibly acknowledged his Son Jesus, and the Holy Spirit led Jesus into the desert wilderness. Jesus fasted 40 days and nights and was tempted. Afterwards, Jesus was tended to by angels, and Jesus went to the area near John the Baptist, and John the Baptist proclaimed Jesus to be the Lamb of God taking away the sin of the world, In Galilee, Jesus told specific Israelite men to follow him, and Jesus began to preach, teach and perform miracles among the Israelites, the treasured and chosen people of the Lord God. Several times, Jesus spoke of the divinely inspired revelations proclaimed or written by Isaiah and other prophets, including Moses, Daniel, HoseaMicah, Zechariah, and Malachi, and some psalmists.-Genesis 1:1-2:25, 11:26-50:26, Exodus, Numbers 20:1-29, 27:12-23, Deuteronomy 5:1-6:25, 8:1-20, 17:1-20, 19:1-21, 24:1-22, 31:1-30, 32:44-52, 34:1-12, Joshua 1:1-4:24, 23:1-24:33, Judges 1:1-2:23, 1 Samuel, 2 Samuel, 1 Kings, 2 Kings, 1 Chronicles 1:1-34, 2:1-17, 3:1-24, 10:1-29:30, 2 Chronicles, Psalm 8, Psalm 22, Psalm 35, Psalm 41, Psalm 54, Psalm 69, Psalm 82, Psalm 110, Psalm 118, Isaiah 5:1-6:13, 29:1-24, 53:1-12, 56:1-12, Jeremiah 7:1-34, Daniel 9:1-27, 11:1-12:13, Hosea 6:1-11, Micah 7:1-20, Zechariah 13:1-9, Malachi 3:1-18, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts 1:1-26
