Although I study the Scriptures on a daily basis, I still do not know all that there is to know. I do look at Proverbs, which states: The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge: fools despise wisdom and instruction. (Proverbs 1:7) and in Proverbs 1:33 says: but he who listens to me will dwell secure and will be at ease, without dread of evil. And Proverbs 2:6 "For the Lord gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding." And finally: Proverbs 3: 5-6 "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not rely on your own insight. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.
And as a child of God, who knows that he knows not, must always study the scriptures, for this is the way to wisdom. I only pray that I will attain that wisdom for the Glory of my God, not my own glory. For God is Eternal, and one day, I shall be in his kingdom forever.

Yes, Jeanette, the bible is truely God's instruction manual for mankind. The thing is that man wants to solve problems HIS way instead of God's way. That was the problem with Israel. They didn't obey EVERYTHING God told them to do. Another thing that we must be aware of is that Satan wants to thwart(sp?) God's plan for mankind, so he's constantly deceiving people into believing that their way is better than God's way so they can't see the truth, but not all are deceived, however. Those that want to follow God's way wholeheartedly are given the wisdom and discernment to do so, not that's it's easy, of course, but as long as we strive to do the right thing and ask Him for help and guidance, it's not all in vain.

Why can't we Christians see that? I want to screem it out!! All the troubleshooting answers to life are in the Manufacturers Manual.

But so many continue complain about the malfuntions in their lives, but still they'd prefer to put up with them rather than to fix them.

"Whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you receive and it will be yours."Mark 11:24

Thanks Jack for the invite.

I've just been browsing through the discussions to see how you operate. I think the method seems to function well. I've been keen on the idea of online Bible studies and wondered how best to work it. Ning groups seem good.

But it saddens me that not many are participating. And it seems to be the same everywhere. People want their problems solved, but only a handful want to get into the Word of God. And that is where the answers are! That is where the power is! That is where the renewing of our minds start!!

We need to start thinking the Word's way and not the world's way!! Then, as it says in Romans 12:2, we can know the perfect will of God for us.

I do pray that God will bless all participants in a mighty way.

EXPLANATION OF MATTHEW CHAPTER 15:26-27


DEAREST SuNNY I AM REPLYING TO YOUR QUESTION TO THE BEST OF MY HUMBLE ABILITY:



Matthew 15:26-27 (New International Version)



26: He replied, "It is not right to take the children's bread and toss it to their dogs."

27: "Yes, Lord," she said, "but even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their masters' table."

The Hebrews were forbidden to marry Canaanites (Exodus 34:10-17; Deuteronomy 7:3-4). The reason was because the Canaanites worshipped idols, not because of race; the Hebrews and Canaanites were racially similar.

In this particular instance our Saviour was testing His disciples ATTITUDE... AND at the same time He was testing this woman's faith...

We must bear in mind that Jesus had chosen very "rough" diamonds for His disciples and He had to do a lot of "polishing and grinding"...

Jesus told them that He had not "come for the lost sheep of the house of Israel"... And that tells us that He came for the LOST SHEEP - no matter from which race, colour or creed.

Needless to say, the disciples failed the test hopelessly and the Canaanite woman passed with a DISTINCTION!!! (Top of the class)...
