Bible Verse of the Day

Hebrews 1:1-2 (KJV)
1 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,
2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;
 
Hebrews 1:1-2 (KJV)
1 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,
2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;

I don't even know what that means.:o:confused:
 
These were the spoils which remained of the plunder taken by the fighting men: 675,000 sheep, 72,000 cattle, 61,000 donkeys, and as for persons, 32,000 young women who had had no intercourse with a man.
 
Isaiah 24:21-23
21 In that day the Lord will punish
the powers in the heavens above
and the kings on the earth below.
22 They will be herded together
like prisoners bound in a dungeon;
they will be shut up in prison
and be punished after many days.
23 The moon will be dismayed,
the sun ashamed;
for the Lord Almighty will reign
on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem,
and before its elders—with great glory.


I like how that passage shows us that the kings of the earth are not the good guys, but the bad guys, and that they are associated with satanic powers (powers in the heavens above), with the one sole exception of the Lord as the only good king.

Excellent post. +rep

Okay, now it makes sense.:o I saw it earlier and tried to figure it out on my own. I finally gave up and looked for a different translation. I'm not crazy about KJV.

Hebrews 1:1-2 (NIV)

God’s Final Word: His Son
1 In the past God spoke to our ancestors through the prophets at many times and in various ways, 2 but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom also he made the universe.

The NIV has some really bad translations. The study tools I like to use when I study the Bible is the Strong's Exhaustive Concordance and a KJV Companion Bible to get the best translation of the Hebrew, Greek and Aramaic translations.

Imperfect as us..

AS IS ALL HUMAN LANGUAGE, and every translation since

The Word and Spirit can transcend that..
Heck.. I trust on it.

I once had an 8 Translation,, and it was handy at times. Kind of a fuller view..but it changed nothing.


I have Bibletime.. but often a quick query online will give me whatever scripture comes to mind..

How cool is that :D
 
John 6:35 (KJV)
35 And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.
 
John 8:12 (KJV)
12 Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.
 
John 10:7 (KJV)
7 Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep.
 
These were the spoils which remained of the plunder taken by the fighting men: 675,000 sheep, 72,000 cattle, 61,000 donkeys, and as for persons, 32,000 young women who had had no intercourse with a man.

I might be able to get ya a good deal on a donkey.
 
John 10:14-15 (KJV)
14 I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.
15 As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep.
 
John 11:25 (KJV)
25 Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:
 
John 10:14-15 (KJV)
14 I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.
15 As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep.

That's right. Jesus lays down His life for His sheep only, not every person in the world.

For ANYONE who accepts Jesus as their savior.


John 3:16-17 (KJV)

16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

A person who accepts Jesus is a sheep. Jesus knows His sheep and His sheep know Him. The sheep hear his voice and He lays down His life only for them. You just quoted the verse that said that.

You remind me of another scripture lawyer who takes scripture and twist it to make his point.

The verse is a metaphor. Jesus is the Shepherd and the sheep are those who follow him.

Regardless, Jesus says He lays down His life for His sheep. Jesus does not lay down His life for those who do not follow Him. The Bible teaches particular atonement.
