THE CENTRE OF GOD'S WORD

This is pretty strange how it worked out this way. Even if you are not religious, you should read this. Q- What is the shortest chapter in the bible? Psalm 117 q- What is the longest chapter in the bible? Psalm 119 q- Which chapter is in the centre of the bible? Psalm 118 Facts: there are 594 chapters before psalm 118 There are 594 chapters after psalm 118 Add these numbers up and you get 1188 q- What is the centre verse in the bible? Psalm 118:8 Does this verse say something significant about God’s perfect will for our lives? The next time someone says they would like to find God’s perfect will for their lives and that they want to be in the centre of His will, just send them to the centre of His word. Psalm 118:8 “it is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in man” Now isn’t that odd how this worked out.... Or was God in the centre ...

She had also just become the minister in charge of new converts in her campus fellowship; there was this particular 100 level convert – Anna, who really liked Pat and always looked up to her for advice.

Initially Pat thought to tell the Girl that they were books she read for leisure and were not harmful to her, but one look at Anna’s sad face made her remember 1st Cor 8, remembered she was minister in charge of new converts and besides she had nothing to lose if she stopped reading D. S novels so that this gi...

Ignorance Is Deadly

Rom 8:2 The morning was cool as the police officers-Corporal Poverty, Sergeant Sickness and Inspector Death resumed work at Interstate 72-that is the boundary between the state of the “Law of Sin and Death” and the state of the “Law of Spirit of Life” where they were assigned to torment all the citizens of the state of the “Law of Sin and Death” and to ensure that the code luke8:12 passed by the heavenly court did not not take effect. This particular morning however, they was rumour that Christ was in town and they were just wondering how true it was when a car with the plate number “saved” drove towards the boundary. Poverty quickly signalled for the car to stop and was baffled to see two of their senior citizens in the car. What could they be doing in the car with saved, he wondered, after all they were still seen exercising code Gal5:19-21 a few days back. The officers were even more surprised when the citizens looked them in the eyes and showed them the pass code Heb2:14-15. The of...
