What is this?
This is a collection of passages from the Bible that I have found to be personally meaningful to me. As I have done a good deal of my reading digitally through my Palm (a digital tablet) I have encountered a number of passages that hold meaning to me; these are copied into my Palm's memo pad, and a program I have found writes this page from the memos I carry close to my heart.. (Proverbs 3:3: NIV Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart.)
Also, passages and suggestions have been offered to me by friends and family for various reasons; these are included here also.
I hope, if you're reading this, that somewhere within this page you may find something useful, or at the very least memorable, as I know I certainly have.
If you wish to discuss any of these notes, or anything else, I would welcome the opportunity to do so with you. email me if you like. Other contact information can be found here.
2000/12/02 11:04
And be sure to check this site out; it's an excellent search and translation engine for the Bible! It is PDA friendly as well.
Concordances, commentaries, dictionaries, and yes, they even have bibles No clue as to the suitability for a PDA at this time.
2001-12-23 16:04
Entries proceeded with a date are usually notes I made in Church or Sunday school, or were so noteworthy of the date and time that I felt it was worthy to record it. Church notes are stored in my PDA to prevent my Bible from turning into this: http://www.fortunecity.com/meltingpot/hornsey/515/20011125135749-2.jpg
I keep the most recent copy of my notes in my PDA; the most up to date version that I share with the world is found here: http://www.fortunecity.com/meltingpot/hornsey/515/DWPj's_FaithNotes.html; I try to update this at least once a week.
By no means is this meant to be exhaustive, complete, or authoritive! This is just stuff that I've found that I find to be meaningful or helpful to myself or people I personally know. If anyone else can benefit from this, then the effort is even more meaningful!
2000/12/02 11:04
Most likely, scriptural references are to KJV text unless otherwise indicated. Somewhere in this mess of memos is a list of abbreviations and translations; reference it for further information.
2002-01-22 4:45
I have become sufficient enough with the Palm Desktop software to allow better organization of these notes. I hope this will make the "clustering" a little more logical.
The most recent version of these notes can be found here.

You can also see some web pages generated from the notes I've collected using the Logos system.
Good luck; and God Bless!

A Four-Part Harmony of the Gospels 02
Taken from http://surfplaza.com/harmony/
Copyright 1997, David Wallis
Preface
This harmony is inspired by the similar book "A Harmony of the Gospels for Students of the Life of Christ" by A. T. Robertson. (His work, in turn, was based upon that of Broadus.) I had intended to use his sections and citations in an online version of the harmony, which would use the text of the NIV (New International Version) rather than the RV (Revised Version) that was current when Robertson published his work in 1922. But as I examined his work more closely, I felt that Robertson had done only half the job: he left the sayings of Jesus largely unanalyzed. I also felt that the gospel of John could be better integrated into the harmony, and that Luke's "Great Journey to Jerusalem" required more scrutiny.
Robertson used Mark as the historical backbone of his harmony, and placed the Markan citation first whenever it was present. I have retained the use of Mark as the historical backbone, but reverted to the traditional order which places Matthew first. This results in Mark being in the center column between Matthew and Luke when all three are present, which is where one might expect to visually encounter a backbone. I have also combined certain transitional passages with the sections they introduce or conclude, but which Robertson separated because they indicated a movement to a new physical location. Even more frequently, I divided long sections whenever I felt a change of subject or genre was indicated, or where I wished to introduce a new parallel.
My purpose is slightly different from Robertson's, so I have chosen to put parallel passages together even when differences in details might make it questionable that they are the same event. In analyzing the sayings of Jesus, I made use of the indications of parallelism in the marginal notes of the NJB (New Jerusalem Bible, 1985) and NIV (New International Version, 1988). Since the sayings of Jesus were largely divorced from their historical context by the time they came to be written down in the gospels, I chose to maintain as much as possible of the thematic context that the gospel writers themselves established. For instance, I chose to keep Matthew's Sermon on the Mount and eschatological discourse intact, moving the parallel passages of Luke to the section most natural for Matthew. I usually chose to include introductory or concluding verses in a citation even when they contrasted rather than paralleled the other gospels, thus minimizing "orphan" verses.
The titles are entirely my own, hopefully more descriptive, and certainly more succinct than Robertson's. The section number before each citation will aid those who wish to compare my work with his. It is my hope and prayer that this work will aid many in their study of the bible by presenting the parallel passages of the gospels side by side for easy comparison.

32 Jn 2:23-25 Jesus Visits Jerusalem for the Passover Feast

Note: Robertson supposes that the apostles were eating the grain on their way back from Jerusalem. It is a tenuous hypothesis, but I chose to let it stand since there is no other indication of travel in the synoptics at this point.

See also section 173 where the Mark also notes 7 demons were expelled from Mary Magdalene.
Note: Luke appears to think Mary the sister of Martha and Lazarus is the same as Mary Magdalene, though he never says so explicitly. He merely goes out of his way to place the story of Mary anointing Jesus at this point in his gospel, a context appropriate to Magdala in Galilee; and instead of naming her explicitly, noting that she had a bad reputation (consistent with a woman who had been host to seven demons). He seems to be unaware that Mary, Martha, and Lazarus reside in Bethany near Jerusalem. I have not retained his context for the anointing: see section 141.

Jesus Visits Jerusalem for Feast of Tabernacles
94a Jn 7:2-10 Jesus Refuses to go to Jerusalem With His Brothers
94b Lk 17:11-19 Jesus Heals Ten Lepers, One Returns to Thank Him
Note: This healing must take place on this or an earlier visit to Jerusalem, not the last which does not originate in either Samaria or Galilee, but rather Ephraim in Judea. Robertson puts this in section 120; but the footnote explaining his interpretation is not persuasive. He thinks it "reasonably supposed" that Jesus would travel north to go south. I disagree, especially since Galilee would be dangerous then (see section 113).

Jesus Sends out 72 Disciples to Galilee and Samaria
102a Lk 9:51-56 Jesus "Sets His Face" to go to Jerusalem
Note: Lk 9:51 is the most problematic verse in Luke. The obvious interpretation is that Jesus is setting out for Jerusalem for the last time, immediately. But Luke later contradicts such an interpretation in several places. The statement apparently has more to do with attitude than itinerary. Jesus has just prophesied of his death for the first time in Lk 9:22-25 (section 83). My interpretation is that Jesus decides to make a farewell circuit of Galilee and Samaria before heading south. Robertson puts this in section 95, discounting the timing of Lk 9:51a.
Lk 9:51 introduces a long sequence (to Lk 18:14) where Luke diverges from the other gospels. It appears to be a series of episodes and sayings which Luke has collected from a variety of sources, originally detached from historical context, which Luke has constructed into a long journey with a vague itinerary leading to Jerusalem. He frequently uses material which Matthew also uses, but in other contexts. Since the order of this sequence is usually at odds with the other gospels, I have chosen not to leave it intact, but to merge it with the other gospels wherever possible.
102b Lk 10:1 Jesus Sends Seventy-Two Disciples Ahead of Him to Heal
See also the Sending of the Twelve Apostles in section 70b.
102c Mt 9:37-38; Lk 10:2 The Harvest is Plentiful but the Workers are Few

Jesus Leaves Galilee for the Last Time, Visits Bethany
Note: It appears that Jesus finds a safe haven at Judea beyond Jordan (northern Perea, where John used to baptize), but He stays there only a short time before visiting Jerusalem for the Feast of the Dedication.
104a Mt 19:1-12; Mk 10:1-12; Lk 13:22 Jesus Leaves Galilee, Preaches Against Divorce
See also the similar teaching reported by Matthew and Luke in section 54h. Note: Robertson put Mt and Mk in section 122, ignoring the statement in Jn 10:40 (section 112) that says that Jesus returned to Judea beyond Jordan after attending the Feast of the Dedication in Jn 10:22-39 (section 111). He put Lk in section 113, which is immediately after a visit to Jerusalem.
104b Lk 10:38-42 Jesus Visits Bethany, Praises Mary to Martha
Note: Bethany is only 15 stadia (2 miles) from Jerusalem (Jn 11:18), but Luke appears to be unaware that Mary and Martha live in Bethany, so he continues to report that Jesus teaches His way through towns and villages to Jerusalem after this story (see section 104a).

Preparations for Jesus' Death
140 Mt 26:1-5; Mk 14:1-2; Lk 22:1-2; Jn 12:9-11 Chief Priests Plot Against Jesus
141 Mt 26:6-13; Mk 14:3-9; Lk 7:36-50; Jn 12:2-8 Jesus Anointed by Mary in Bethany
Note: Luke is the only one who reports that the woman (Luke leaves Mary unnamed) had a bad reputation. Perhaps he is thinking of the 7 demons expelled from Mary Magdalene (see sections 60 and 173). The NJB denies that Lk reports the same incident as the others, apparently to protect Mary's reputation; but what are the chances that two such unusual events would take place, both in the house of a man named Simon?

Resurrection, Appearances, and Ascension
Note: There is some difficulty in reconciling the four accounts at this point. I interpret the sequence of events to be:
1.The angels appear and scare off the guards.
2.The women (Mary Magdalene, Mary wife of Alpheus and mother of apostle James, Salome wife of Zebedee and mother of apostles James and John, and Joanna wife of Chuza steward of Herod) discover the empty tomb and are greeted by the angels.
3.They report the empty tomb to the apostles.
4.The women take Peter and John back to the tomb.
5.Peter and John inspect the tomb and leave.
6.Mary Magdalene and Mary wife of Alpheus, (possibly others) stay behind, grieving.
7.Jesus appears to Mary Magdalene and the others as they start to leave.
8.Mary Magdalene and the others report this appearance to the apostles.

Outline of Psalms
Book I Psalms 1-41
Book II Psalms 42-72
Book III Psalms 73-89
Book IV Psalms 90-106
Book V Psalms 107-150
Each of the first four books concludes with a doxology, while Psalm 150 serves in its entirety as both a doxology for the fifth book and an appropriate conclusion to the entire Psalter. The fivefold arrangement has long been recognized, but no explanation for its origin has proved satisfactory. The most common is the early Jewish tradition that judged the five books to be an imitation of the five books of Moses. No one to date, however, has satisfactorily enumerated undisputed likenesses between the two sets of books, although some parallels have been found.

"Until He Comes"; Matthew 24:10-14; John 14:1-6
Matthew 24:13
1: He is going to come back again.
2: His children will live in Heaven with Him forever.
Now, why did Jesus tell us this Good News?
1) Because the disciples asked Him.
2) Because He loves us very much.
3) Because some will give in to pressure.
Pressures:
They are moral pressure.
They are Physical pressure.
They are mental pressure.
They are emotional pressure.
Jesus indentifies this pressure in 3 ways:
1) The price will be too high.
2) The talk will be too convincing.
3) Sin will be too enticing.
Jesus in Heart
1: Believe Jesus is the son of God.
2: Acknowledge sins and confess to God.

Questions for the Pastor
How do you test the spirit? Glorification of the spirit of Jesus. Discernment between what is of God or Satan? If the end results glorify God. Temptation draws away from God.
1 Corinthians 12:1-7
Dr. Wilton
Jesus is Lord
1 Corinthians 1:9
1: As friend
2: As savior
3: As lord
1 Corinthians Summary
1: Chapter 1:1-9 Introduction
2: Chapter 1:9-11:34 Carnal issues
3: Chapter 12-15 Spiritual issues
1: Chapter 12 Gifts of the spirit
2: Chapter 13 Fruit of the spirit
3: Chapter 14 Order of the spirit
4: Chapter 15 Glory of the spirit
Discussion of gifts causes the most divisions, interest, and excitement (this includes tongues).
Listen to questions being asked.
1: How can you tell if a gift is a spiritual gift?
2: If a gift is used in the church, how can you trace it's spirit?
3: Some say you are not filled with the spirit if you don't speak in tongues.
How?
1: Understand and recongize the power of paganism. Paganism was a former form of worship.
1: Every pagan religiion includes the issue of tongues.
2: Recognize counterfeits. Counterfit gifts in the church.
2: Test the work of the spirit (1 Coritinthian 12:3)
1: Negative test. Infiltration on the Gnostics. Gnostics believed:
1: Everything physical was evil.
2: Jesus only appeared to be human.
3: You could glofiy Jesus as divine.
4: You must curse Jesus as human (Dueteronomy 21:22-23).
5: The resurrection was impossible.
The work of the Holy Spirit is to ascribe lordship to Jesus Christ.

23 For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you: The Lord Jesus, on the night he was betrayed, took bread,
24 and when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, "This is my body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of me."
25 In the same way, after supper he took the cup, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood; do this, whenever you drink it, in remembrance of me."
26 For whenever you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes.
1 Corinthians 11:27-28
27 Therefore, whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of sinning against the body and blood of the Lord.
28 A man ought to examine himself before he eats of the bread and drinks of the cup.

Topic: Why Pick On The Angels? pt.2
Scripture: Hebrews 1:1-14
BECAUSE OF HIS NAME
A. Consider the Angels
1. Angels are created by God
2. Angels are not related to God
No wonder the 2-fold question:
a) "Did I ever call you Son?"
b) "Did I ever say I was your Father?"
B. Consider the Son
1. He was called Son because of His incarnation
2. He was seated as Son because of His exaltation
His Sonship helps understand 3 things:
1- Jesus' relationship with the Father
2- Jesus' willing submission to the Father for the sake of man
3- Jesus' sacrificial death on the cross as an historical fact of love from the Father
How was Jesus' Sonship established?
1) Through the virgin birth
2) Through Jesus' ressurection
BECAUSE OF HIS WORSHIP
1. Prior to Jesus' incarnation the Angels worshiped Him as God
2. At the time of Jesus' birth the Angels worshiped Him as the Savior of the world
3. After Jesus' resurrection the Angels worshiped Him as Lord
4. Following Jesus' exaltation the Angels worshiped Jim as King of Kings and Lord of Lords
Why?
Because Jesus is God's first-born = position!!!
This means:
a. Jesus has jurisdiction over the world
b. Jesus has jurisdiction over the church
Dr. Wilton will complete this message next week with part 3 of
"Why pick on Angels?"

Reading progress notes as of 2001-10-30 13:38
There are a total of 1189 chapters in the Bible; I have read 506 of them, so I guess I'm about %42.5568 through. Currently I'm on Joshua 12.
On or about the 27th of this month, I took a online Bible Knowledge Quiz, in the beginner level, on the subject of Characters. From memory, I got 12 of the 20 questions correct, for a score of %60. Adjusted against all catagories, skill levels, and other testers, I ranked %77 percent.

Divorce (see Marriage)
The Hebrew and Greek terms for divorce ("to send away," "to separate," "to set free") signify the dissolution of marriage with the result that the divorced person was free to remarry except for certain restrictions. In the Mosaic Law, remarrying the original partner was restricted (cf. De 24:1). In the NT all remarriage was denied so long as there was the possibility of reconciliation (1 Co 7:11). The question of a permitted ground for divorce based on the teaching of Jesus and the apostle Paul has evoked diverse responses. Some limit the exception clause in Jesus' prohibition of divorce (e.g., Mt 5:31) to marriages within the proscribed laws of consanguinity (cf. Le 18:6) or unfaithfulness during the betrothal period. Most understand Jesus as allowing divorce for adultery or other serious sexual sin that violates the marriage covenant. Many also see desertion as biblical grounds for divorce based on Paul's teaching (1 Co 7:15). Whether the apostle means that the bond of marriage is broken when the unbeliever departs, or simply that the believer is not bound to serve the other as marriage partner (without reference to divorce and remarriage), is not clear. The entire tenor of Scripture views divorce as opposed to God's intended marriage design and permitted only as the lesser evil in severely destructive marital circumstances.

Marriage
Marriage was the first divine institution of Scripture and the only one established for mankind before the entrance of sin. As such it is the foundational institution of human society. The divine ideal is established with the first man and woman (cf. Ge 2:18-25). The description of "cleaving" together so as to form "one flesh" depicts marriage as a union of love (cf. Hos 2:19) between a man and a woman forming a permanent community of personal concern and fidelity. It involves a covenant relationship (Mal 2:14). The explanation of woman being a "helper suitable" for man further explains marriage as equal partners in a complementary relation of mutual help. The selfishness of sin disrupts marital harmony, bringing turmoil, infidelity, and sometimes dissolution to marriages. Because of the hardness of human hearts God permitted deviations from His creation ideal but regulated them from excessive abuse (cf. Mt 19:4-8). The marriage institution relates only to natural life on earth and is not retained in the resurrection life (Mt 22:30). (See also DIVORCE).

APOSTLES' CREED, Traditional Version
I believe in God the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth;
And in Jesus Christ his only Son our Lord:
who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried; the third day he rose from the dead; he ascended into heaven, and sitteth at the right hand of God the Father Almighty; from thence he shall come to judge the quick and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen

Amen.
Acts 2:38-44
38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. 39 For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call. 40 And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this untoward generation. 41 Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls.
42 And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers. 43 And fear came upon every soul: and many wonders and signs were done by the apostles. 44 And all that believed were together, and had all things common;
Acts 8:26-40
26 And the angel of the Lord spake unto Philip, saying, Arise, and go toward the south unto the way that goeth down from Jerusalem unto Gaza, which is desert. 27 And he arose and went: and, behold, a man of Ethiopia, an eunuch of great authority under Candace queen of the Ethiopians, who had the charge of all her treasure, and had come to Jerusalem for to worship, 28 Was returning, and sitting in his chariot read Esaias the prophet. 29 Then the Spirit said unto Philip, Go near, and join thyself to this chariot. 30 And Philip ran thither to him, and heard him read the prophet Esaias, and said, Understandest thou what thou readest? 31 And he said, How can I, except some man should guide me? And he desired Philip that he would come up and sit with him. 32 The place of the scripture which he read was this, He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; and like a lamb dumb before his shearer, so opened he not his mouth: 33 In his humiliation his judgment was taken away: and who shall declare his generation? for his life is taken from the earth. 34 And the eunuch answered Philip, and said, I pray thee, of whom speaketh the prophet this? of himself, or of some other man? 35 Then Philip opened his mouth, and began at the same scripture, and preached unto him Jesus. 36 And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized? 37 And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. 38 And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they went down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him. 39 And when they were come up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip, that the eunuch saw him no more: and he went on his way rejoicing. 40 But Philip was found at Azotus: and passing through he preached in all the cities, till he came to Caesarea.

Commandments, Ten
3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.
5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;
6 And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.
7 Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
9 Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:
10 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:
11 For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.
12 Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.
13 Thou shalt not kill.

Commandments, The New
Matthew 22:34-40
Matthew 22:34-40 :: KJV
34 But when the Pharisees had heard that he had put the Sadducees to silence, they were gathered together.
35 Then one of them, which was a lawyer, asked him a question, tempting him, and saying,
36 Master, which is the great commandment in the law?
37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
38 This is the first and great commandment.
39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.
Matthew 22:34-40 :: New International Version (NIV)
34 Hearing that Jesus had silenced the Sadducees, the Pharisees got together.
35 One of them, an expert in the law, tested him with this question:
36 "Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?"
37 Jesus replied: "`Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.'
38 This is the first and greatest commandment.
39 And the second is like it: `Love your neighbor as yourself.'
40 All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments."

Faith without works
Hebrews 6:1 Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God,
James 2:17 Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone.
James 2:20 But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead?
James 2:26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.
Isaiah 58:6-8 KJV
Isaiah 58:6-8
6 Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke? 7 Is it not to deal thy bread to the hungry, and that thou bring the poor that are cast out to thy house? when thou seest the naked, that thou cover him; and that thou hide not thyself from thine own flesh?
8 Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thine health shall spring forth speedily: and thy righteousness shall go before thee; the glory of the LORD shall be thy rereward.
1 John 3:17-18 :: KJV
17 But whoso hath this world's good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him? 18 My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth.
James 2:14-17 KJV
What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, and have not works? can faith save him? If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food, And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be ye warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what doth it profit? Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone.
Luke 14:12-14 KJV
Then said he also to him that bade him, When thou makest a dinner or a supper, call not thy friends, nor thy brethren, neither thy kinsmen, nor thy rich neighbours; lest they also bid thee again, and a recompence be made thee. But when thou makest a feast, call the poor, the maimed, the lame, the blind:And thou shalt be blessed; for they cannot recompense thee: for thou shalt be recompensed at the resurrection of the just.

21 Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times? 22 Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven. 23 Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened unto a certain king, which would take account of his servants. 24 And when he had begun to reckon, one was brought unto him, which owed him ten thousand talents. 25 But forasmuch as he had not to pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, and his wife, and children, and all that he had, and payment to be made. 26 The servant therefore fell down, and worshipped him, saying, Lord, have patience with me, and I will pay thee all. 27 Then the lord of that servant was moved with compassion, and loosed him, and forgave him the debt. 28 But the same servant went out, and found one of his fellowservants, which owed him an hundred pence: and he laid hands on him, and took him by the throat, saying, Pay me that thou owest. 29 And his fellowservant fell down at his feet, and besought him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay thee all. 30 And he would not: but went and cast him into prison, till he should pay the debt. 31 So when his fellowservants saw what was done, they were very sorry, and came and told unto their lord all that was done. 32 Then his lord, after that he had called him, said unto him, O thou wicked servant, I forgave thee all that debt, because thou desiredst me: 33 Shouldest not thou also have had compassion on thy fellowservant, even as I had pity on thee? 34 And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due unto him. 35 So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto you, if ye from your hearts forgive not every one his brother their trespasses.

Gifts, Spiritual
1 Corinthians 12:1-11
1 Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I would not have you ignorant. 2 Ye know that ye were Gentiles, carried away unto these dumb idols, even as ye were led. 3 Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost. 4 Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. 5 And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord. 6 And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all. 7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal. 8 For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit; 9 To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit; 10 To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues: 11 But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will.

Laws of Justice & Mercy
Exodus 23:1-9
1 Thou shalt not raise a false report: put not thine hand with the wicked to be an unrighteous witness.
2 Thou shalt not follow a multitude to do evil; neither shalt thou speak in a cause to decline after many to wrest judgment:
3 Neither shalt thou countenance a poor man in his cause.
4 If thou meet thine enemy's ox or his ass going astray, thou shalt surely bring it back to him again.
5 If thou see the ass of him that hateth thee lying under his burden, and wouldest forbear to help him, thou shalt surely help with him.
6 Thou shalt not wrest the judgment of thy poor in his cause.
7 Keep thee far from a false matter; and the innocent and righteous slay thou not: for I will not justify the wicked.
8 And thou shalt take no gift: for the gift blindeth the wise, and perverteth the words of the righteous.
9 Also thou shalt not oppress a stranger: for ye know the heart of a stranger, seeing ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.

43 Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy. 44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; 45 That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. 46 For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same? 47 And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so? 48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.

And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch. 15 Then answered Peter and said unto him, Declare unto us this parable. 16 And Jesus said, Are ye also yet without understanding? 17 Do not ye yet understand, that whatsoever entereth in at the mouth goeth into the belly, and is cast out into the draught? 18 But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the man. 19 For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies: 20 These are the things which defile a man: but to eat with unwashen hands defileth not a man.

1 Timothy 6:6-11
6 But godliness with contentment is great gain. 7 For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. 8 And having food and raiment let us be therewith content. 9 But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition. 10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows. 11 But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.

10 For there are many rebellious people, mere talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision group. 11 They must be silenced, because they are ruining whole households by teaching things they ought not to teach-and that for the sake of dishonest gain.

Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. 3 But when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth: 4 That thine alms may be in secret: and thy Father which seeth in secret himself shall reward thee openly.
5 And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. 6 But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly. 7 But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking. 8 Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him.

8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:

Bible Trivia; middlemost verse.
2001-11-29 14:04
(KJV/NIV)
If my source is correct, and my interpretation of wc & egrep is correct, in KJV there are: 31102 verses, 820736-31102=789634 words, and 1189 chapters. Of course, common knowledge is that there are 66 books.
Note this does not apply to NIV (and probably other translations), as verses were translated differently, and some omitted (Mark 9:44, Mark 11:26, Mark 15:28,
Luke 17:36, Luke 23:17, John 5:4, Acts 8:37, Acts 15:34, Acts 24:7, Acts 28:29, Romans 16:24, and I John 5:7). So, I assume for NIV, there are 31102-12=31090 verses.

Bible Trivia; middlemost verse.
In service today, one of the members of the Singles I class overheard me speaking with Becky about my reading of Psalm 117 (The shortest chapter in the Bible) and Psalm 119 (the longest chapter in the Bible). He stated that Psalm 118:8 It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man. was the middle verse. From the KJV.TXT file I found at work, there are 31168 verses in the Bible, the middle (15584) being Psalm 101:4 A froward heart shall depart from me: I will not know a wicked person. This trivia, of course, is based on the King James Version, and not any other translation. It also assumes that the text of the KJV I have is accurate, and that there are no errors in the text editor (UltraEdit) that I'm using.
