4/21/17 TODAY'S BIBLE PUZZLES:

I know Easter is over now, but just one more thing! I was thinking about the word, "stripes."  I read that Jesus  received 39-40 stripes. This is a lot and probably more than most men could endure. But I figured there was a reason Jesus was beaten 39-40 times. I did some research and it revealed that this was  the custom in Bible days: Deuteronomy 25:1-3 1 “If there is a dispute between men, and they come to court, that the judges may judge them.. 2 Then it shall be, if the wicked man deserves to be beaten, that the judge  will cause him to lie down and be beaten in his presence, according to his guilt, with a certain number of blows. 3 Forty blows he may give him and no more, lest he should exceed this and beat him with many blows above these, and your brother be humiliated in your sight. 2 Corinthians 11:24    From the Jews five times I received forty stripes minus one.   LIFE LESSON: I began to realize that "THE CUP" Jesus TOOK...

I have noticed we have full attendance at our church on Christmas and Easter! I must arrive at church early if I want to sit on my favorite church pew! Could it  be that some wayward church members recognize that these  holidays are the most important days of the year? The  day Christ was Born and the day Christ Died! A true Passion of Christ indeed! There are times when some church members have to miss a day of Sunday worship.  I try not to be one  the church members that the pastor joke about. He mentions that he has not seen some of them since Christmas! However, he smiles and say that he's still glad to seem them.  Every one chuckles.  Some members will try to improve their church attendance.  While others will do the same thing next year! There's no judgement here! Their church attendance  is between them & God! I'm just saying!!  Every Easter I reflect on my lifestyle. Have I improved my Christian walk ...
