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

Some Explaining

The Words of
Jesus the Christ,
the Son of God:


Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men. Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.-Matthew 5:13-16***Simon Peter was an Israelite descended from Abraham (Abram the Hebrew) and Sarah (Sarai), Isaac and Rebekah, and Isaac and Rebekah's youngest fraternal twin son Jacob (Israel). Before Simon Peter was placed under guard for proclaiming that Jesus the Christ, the Son of God, who had been crucified, was raised from the dead, and before Simon Peter was placed under guard another time before being freed by an angel of the Lord, and before Simon Peter was imprisoned by King Herod Agrippa I and freed by an angel of the Lord, and before Simon Peter wrote 2 divinely inspired letters that both mention works,  Simon Peter was a fisherman who became among 1 of the 3 disciples and apostles most constantly with Jesus, and Simon Peter was listening with other disciples when Jesus was on a mountain teaching revelations regarding light and good works.-Genesis 11:26-35:29, 1 Chronicles 1:1-34, 2:1-17, 3:1-24, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts 1:1-15:41, 1 Peter, 2 Peter
