Friday June 3, 2016 thought for the day

 

HERE ARE MY THOUGHTS FOR THE DAY

1-Self denial is often the key to self fulfillment-

2-"As a man thinketh in his heart so is he"-

3-The seed of destruction is contained in every sin-

4-When you have no eternal truths you have no moral absolutes-

5-How foolish to exchange freedom for security-

 

STRANGE THOUGHT-Geezer is formally known as stud muffin-

 

I'VE LEARNED-Everyone wants to live on top of the mountain.  But all happiness and growth occurs while you are climbing it-

 

DID YOU KNOW-People in China sometimes use firecrackers around their homes as fire alarms-

 

5 THINGS I WANT TO KNOW

1-Every major civilization before us has disintegrated and collapsed from internal forces rather than military conquest-

2-For the Christian, the term "eternal life" refers to an everlasting existence (time with no end) with God in heaven.  Should it not also refer to the unsaved spending that same time with satan in hell?

3-Is there a difference in the wrath of God of the old testament and the love of God of the new testament?

4-If every Christian began to live the promised land life, how would the world be different?

5-If Christians are co-heirs with Jesus, why do we so often struggle through life?

 

BIBLE TRIVIA-"This is the family history of Jesus Christ. He came from the family of David, and David came from the family of Abraham."  This is the first verse of chapter 1 of what book of the Bible?

Answer for today     Matthew

 

SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY   Isaiah 1:18-20

¹⁸ The Lord says,
    “Come, let us talk about these things.
Though your sins are like scarlet,
    They can be as white as snow.
Though your sins are deep red,
    They can be white like wool.
¹⁹ If you become willing and obey me,
    You will eat good crops from the land.
²⁰ But if you refuse to obey and if you turn against me,
    You will be destroyed by your enemies’ swords.”
The Lord himself said these things.
