No Comment A Day Is As A Thousand Years For Wrath and Salvation
In our first installment of this topic, we demonstrated from the first half of Psalm 90:3-12, that Moses used a day is as a thousand years to speak of a short versus a long period of time. See that article where we pointed out the various comparisons, all of which pointed to brief periods. The context of Psalm 90 compels the careful reader to conclude the Bible application of the thousand years used by Moses and Peter is of short duration.

6 Comments Leviticus 19:28, the Law of Moses and Tattoos
Found in one of the five books of Moses called the Pentateuch meaning 5, Leviticus 19:28, is primarily a part of the instructions God gave to the priests to follow. They were also the God-appointed teachers of the nation. It was their responsibility to teach Israel the ways of God. The Levitical priests were cast into this role by default. Don K. Preston, who co-hosts "The Two Men and a Bible" radio broadcast at AD70.net which airs on Tuesdays at 6 p.m. central, pointed out in our presentation last night that the Levites ...

Are your steps ordered by the Lord? Psalms 37:23. Reading the first chapter of Genesis, we can see an orderliness in the manner in which God proceeded from one creative act to the other.

Firstfruits of the Spirit
Firstfruits of the Spirit
Most of the lessons I grew up hearing about giving were sermons on Proverbs 3:9–10 about the firstfruits. Never would I have asked “What Do the Firstfruits

Some 30 years ago, my wife and our youngest daughter were playing in
our backyard. It was a rather large back yard, and one of the features that sold us on the house.
We we looking for plenty of room for our three children to play without
wandering into the streets. Then one afternoon, while playing in the
backyard, we heard this loud boom from what sounded like an explosion. The next thing we saw was a ball of fire and objects falling from the sky.
Our daughter terrified with fear, began to cry. While my wife’s motherly instinct overcame my curiosity of what had happened, she ...
