Daily Bible Verse - 8/13/2007 - Psalm 51:10
Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.
Commentary
Along with Ps. 32, it (Psalm 51) was written by David after his affair with Bathsheba and his murder of Uriah, her husband (2 Sam. 11-12). It is one of 7 poems called penitential psalms (6, 32, 38, 51, 102, 130, 143). To David's credit, he recognized fully how horrendous his sin was against God, blamed no one but himself, and begged for divine forgiveness.MacArthur, J. J. (1997, c1997). The MacArthur Study Bible (electronic ed.) (Ps 51:1). Nashville: Word Pub."Create in me a clean heart"The verb translated create is the same one used in Gen. 1:1 and refers to what only God can do.

Had great time today at church. Not much else going on they are still drilling holes to see if they can locate any of the miners lost at the mine in Huntington Utah. Prayer are still needed there as it must really be hard on the families. Then there is the miners if still alive the thought going through their mines. wondering if the recuers are coming or not I pray that Jesus gives them strength.
Daily Bible Verse - 8/12/2007 - Psalm 43:4

Then will I go unto the altar of God, unto God my exceeding joy: yea, upon the harp will I praise thee, O God my God.
Commentary
Notice the progression (from the previous verse) to verse 4:To Your holy hill;To Your tabernacle;To the altar of God;To God my exceeding joy.The true worshiper is satisfied with neither a geographical location nor a building nor an altar. He must get through to God Himself!

I failed in two attempts at my extra class exams last night i missed by on questions i had to score 75 or above and I 74 each time i guess i am dumber than a box full of rocks as we used to say or dumber than a Hoe handle both are pretty dumb.
I as i might as well laugh over it when i was in school i took my grades serious and hated to fail any test but under school grades I would have squeaked through but if and extra class license was easy to obtain there would be no prestige in having one.
I still want people to pray that by a mircle the miners are alive in Utah but with each passing day it is less likly of them suriving..
The weather is cooled here yes by a whole 1 degree....

Daily Bible Verse - 8/10/2007 - Ephesians 2:4-5
But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;)
I would hate to think where this world would be with out the Grace of God and Jesus paying the Price for our Sins not his sins but my sins your sins everybody has been bailed out from the wages of sin..
Commentary2:4
mercy .. love. Salvation is for God's glory by putting on display His boundless mercy and love for those who are spiritually dead because of their sinfulness.2:5 when we were dead .. made us alive. Far more than anything else, a spiritually dead person needs to be made alive by God. Salvation brings spiritual life to the dead. The power that raises believers out of death and makes them alive (cf. Rom. 6:1-7) is the same power that energizes every aspect of Christian living (cf. Rom. 6:11-13).MacArthur, J. J. (1997, c1997). The MacArthur Study Bible (electronic ed.) (Eph 2:4). Nashville:

GRACE
Grace - Favor or kindness shown without regard to the worth or merit of the one who receives it and in spite of what that person deserves. Grace is one of the key attributes of God. The Lord God is "merciful and gracious, long-suffering, and abounding in goodness and truth" (Ex. 34:6). Therefore, grace is almost always associated with mercy, love, compassion, and patience.The theme of grace is especially prominent in the letters of Paul. He sets grace radically over against the law and the works of the law (Rom. 3:24, 28). Paul makes it abundantly clear that salvation is not something that can be earned; it can be received only as a gift of grace (Rom. 4:4). Grace, however, must be accompanied by faith; a person must trust in the mercy and favor of God, even while it is undeserved (Rom. 4:16; Gal. 2:16).

It was what I think the hottest we had yet as they are warning people to stay in as much as possible...

Other things going on is the miners in Utah the head of that mine has a problem he cares nothing for the men who are trapped.

The weather is do to globle warming well I dont know but if it follows this pattern we can exspect a wet winter.

God will protect us from all the evils of the all we need is faith in Jesus that he died for our sins.

Daily Bible Verse - 8/8/2007 - Isaiah 43:2

When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.

Todays Bible Verse: Proverbs 27:19
As in water face answereth to face, so the heart of man to man
Commentary
Thoughts reflect a person's true character
Word Study:
HeartHEART - the inner self that thinks, feels, and decides. In the Bible the word "heart" has a much broader meaning than it does to the modern mind. The heart is that which is central to a person. Nearly all the references to the heart in the Bible refer to some aspect of human personality.In the Bible all emotions are experienced by the heart: love and hate (Ps. 105:25; 1 Pet. 1:22); joy and sorrow (Eccl. 2:10; John 16:6); peace and bitterness (Ezek. 27:31; Col. 3:15); courage and fear (Gen. 42:28; Amos 2:16).The thinking processes are said to be carried out by the heart. This intellectual activity corresponds to what would be called "mind" in English. Thus, the heart may think (Esth. 6:6), understand (Job 38:36), imagine (Jer. 9:14), remember (Deut. 4:9), be wise (Prov. 2:10), and speak to itself (Deut. 7:17). Decision-making is also carried out by the heart. Purpose (Acts 11:23), intention (Heb. 4:12), and will (Eph. 6:6) are all activities of the heart.Finally, heart often means someone's true character or personality. Purity or evil (Jer. 3:17; Matt. 5:8); sincerity or hardness (Ex. 4:21; Col. 3:22); and maturity or rebelliousness (Ps. 101:2; Jer. 5:23)-all these describe the heart or true character of individuals. God knows the heart of each person (1 Sam. 16:7). Since people speak and act from their hearts, they are to guard them well (Prov. 4:23; Matt. 15:18-19). The most important duty of anyone is to love God with the whole heart (Matt. 22:37). With the heart a person believes in Christ and so experiences both love from God and the presence of Christ in the heart (Rom. 5:5; 10:9-10; Eph. 3:17).

Today Bible Passage
Exodus 15:11
Who is like unto thee, O LORD, among the gods? who is like thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders?
Commentary
"Who is like You" - Many times, the Bible uses this language of incomparability to describe the true God. In a world in which there were many supposed gods, the Lord was unique. He alone is God. He is not just better than other gods; there are no other gods. No person, god, or thing can be compared to the one true God (Ps. 96:4, 5; Is. 40:25, 26; Mic. 7:18). Fearful means that God inspired wonder, worship, and obedience from the Israelites.

As I set here listening to Fox News I Get upset to see the that many of the Radical Muslims are rejoicing in the bridge collapse.We would never rejoice in their people being killed. And to say that their God had done it is another way to spread their violent way.
The Daily Bible Verse
Psalm 37:4
Delight thyself also in the LORD: and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.
Commentary Find all your joy and pleasure in His will. Make Him your delight, and your desires will be in His will. Living to please the Lord sets you free from fretting about what men are doing.Wiersbe, W. W. (1997, c1991). With the word Bible commentary (Ps 37:1). Nashville: Thomas Nelson.Did you know? Psalm 37 is one of several alphabetical psalms (Ps. 9 and 10 together; 25; 34; 37; 111; 112; 119; 145). In Hebrew each succeeding verse begins with the next letter of the alphabet. The Hebrew alphabet has 22 letters, so these psalms should have 22 verses. In Psalm 37 every other He brew line begins alphabetically, but there aren't 44 verses because some of the English verses are so long they break the pattern.

Has been another hot one here today nothjing much else going on here stil watching about the bridge as they try to figure the cause of this collapse.
There was many brave people who help save many lives at that collapse.

Daily Bible Verse - 8/2/2007 - Isaiah 53:5
But he was pierced for our transgressions,he was crushed for our iniquities;the punishment that brought us peace was upon him,and by his wounds we are healed. (NIV)But he was pierced for our transgressions,he was crushed for our iniquities;the punishment that brought us peace was upon him,and by his wounds we are healed. (KJV)But He was pierced through for our transgressions,He was crushed for our iniquities;The chastening for our well-being fell upon Him,And by His scourging we are healed. (NASB)Isaiah 53:5CommentaryThis verse is filled with the language of substitution. The Servant suffered not for His own sin, since He was sinless (cf. Heb. 4:15; 7:26), but as the substitute for sinners. The emphasis here is on Christ being the substitute recipient of God's wrath on sinners (cf. 2 Cor. 5:21; Gal. 1:3,4; Heb. 10:9,10). chastisement for our peace. He suffered the chastisement of God in order to procure our peace with God. by His stripes we are healed. The stripe (the Heb. noun is singular) that caused His death has brought salvation to those for whose sins He died. Peter confirms this in 1 Pet. 2:24.MacArthur, J. J. (1997, c1997). The MacArthur Study Bible (electronic ed.) (Is 53:5). Nashville: Word Pub
.Did you know?
Our Lord Jesus suffered all five kinds of wounds known to medical science: contusions-blows by a rod; lacerations-scourging; penetrating wounds-crown of thorns; perforating wounds-nails; incised wounds-the spear.

The Daily Bible Verse
James 5:16

Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. (KJV)
This verse fits today we need to pray one for another. After the terrible bridge collapse and to find out many of our bridge are in simlar conditions. The families and the victims need our prayers.
Commentary
By way of encouraging both elders and Christians to this kind of intercession for those in spiritual weakness, James reminds them that such prayer is effective. Effective translates energeō, from which our English word "energy" derives. The prayer of a righteous man (cf. 4:3; Ps. 66:18; Prov. 15:8; 28:9), James notes, can accomplish much (literally "is very strong"). Weak prayers come from weak people; strong prayers come from strong people. The energetic prayers of a righteous man are a potent force in calling down the power of God for restoring weak, struggling believers to spiritual health.To further demonstrate the power of righteous prayer and provide an illustration that captures the essence of his discussion, James turns to one of the most popular Old Testament figures. Elijah, he reminds his readers, though a prophet and man of God, was a man with a nature like ours. The Bible records that he was hungry (1 Kings 17:11), afraid (1 Kings 19:3), and depressed (1 Kings 19:3, 9-14). Yet when he prayed earnestly (lit. "he prayed with prayer"), incredible things happened: It did not rain on the earth for three years and six months. Then he prayed again, and the sky poured rain and the earth produced its fruit. Elijah's prayers both created and ended a devastating three-and-one-half-year drought (cf. Luke 4:25). While 1 Kings 17 records the drought, only James gives its duration and links it to the prayers of Elijah.MacArthur, J. (1998). James (280). Chicago, Ill.: Moody Press.Did you know? In the Old Testament, the priest was also the physician. It was he who diagnosed leprosy, and it was he who pronounced it cured, for instance.



(photos by KD8AMN) Man was it ever hot today but cann't complain to much as in three months we will be hollering is it ever cold.

2 Corinthians 4:16
Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day.
We do not want to lose heart each day we will be renewed by the grace of God. The freshing grace is available to all of us if we ask for it God will pour his blessing on us if we have faith and strive to do his work........
Commentary our outward man is perishing. The physical body is in the process of decay and will eventually die. On the surface Paul was referring to the normal aging process, but with the added emphasis that his lifestyle sped up that process.

The soul of every believer i.e., the new creation-the eternal part of the believer (cf. Eph. 4:24; Col. 3:10). being renewed. The growth and maturing process of the believer is constantly occurring.

Ephesians 2:8-9 (NASB)Memory Verse from the Macarthur Scripture Memory System week 11..>

Well was Monday just not a good day just feel down. Went down the trail it was very hot today.


On hearing this, Jesus said, "It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. But go and learn what this means: 'I desire mercy, not sacrifice.' For I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners."
But when Jesus heard that, he said unto them, They that be whole need not a physician, but they that are sick. But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
But when Jesus heard this, He said, "It is not those who are healthy who need a physician, but those who are sick. "But go and learn what this means: 'I DESIRE COMPASSION, AND NOT SACRIFICE,' for I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners."
Matthew 9:12-13
Commentary
9:12 Jesus overheard and answered, "Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick." The Pharisees considered themselves healthy and were unwilling to confess their need for Jesus. (Actually they were extremely ill spiritually and desperately needed healing.) The tax collectors and sinners, by contrast, were more willing to acknowledge their true condition and to seek Christ's saving grace. So the charge was true! Jesus did eat with sinners. If He had eaten with the Pharisees, the charge would still have been true-perhaps even more so! If Jesus hadn't eaten with sinners in a world like ours, He would always have eaten alone. But it is important to remember that when He ate with sinners, He never indulged in their evil ways or compromised His testimony. He used the occasion to call men to truth and holiness.
9:13 The Pharisees' trouble was that although they followed the rituals of Judaism with great precision, their hearts were hard, cold, and merciless. So Jesus dismissed them with a challenge to learn the meaning of Jehovah's words, "I desire mercy, and not sacrifice" (quoted from Hosea 6:6). Although God had instituted the sacrificial system, He did not want the rituals to become a substitute for inward righteousness. God is not a Ritualist, and He is not pleased with rituals divorced from personal godliness-precisely what the Pharisees had done. They observed the letter of the law but had no compassion for those who needed spiritual help. They associated only with self-righteous people like themselves.
In contrast, the Lord Jesus pointedly told them, "I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners." He perfectly fulfilled God's desire for mercy as well as sacrifice. In one sense, there are no righteous people in the world, so He came to call all men to repentance. But here the thought is that His call is only effective for those who acknowledge themselves to be sinners. He can dispense no healing to those who are proud, self-righteous, and unrepentant-like the Pharisees.

Well it is another rainy day here in West Virgina as the chance of showers loom all weekend. We need more rain to help relieve the dry very dry conditions we haven had in this area for the last six to eight months.
Me and my cousin were talking last night remembering the goodtime we will never see no more hunting and fishing and frog gigging we have waited about every river and big stream in area as well as many ponds after the big bull frogs.

the great times spent with his dad the master hunter knew more about the hunting and wildlife than anyone i ever have meant.
The times we spent working on and enjoying buthering hogs and beef a thing that is a lost art anymore.
Wondering what would happen to people if they were forced to live from the land again.

Deuteronomy 6:5Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. (NIV)And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might. (KJV)You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might. (NASB)
Deuteronomy 6:5
CommentaryYou shall love the Lord your God. First in the list of all that was essential for the Jew was unreserved, wholehearted commitment expressed in love to God. Since this relationship of love for God could not be represented in any material way as with idols, it had to be demonstrated in obedience to God's law in daily life. Cf. 11:16-21; Matt. 22:37; Luke 10:27.MacArthur, J. J. (1997, c1997). The MacArthur Study Bible (electronic ed.) (Dt 6:5).

Daily Bible Verse - 7/26/2007 - Proverbs 20:27

Proverbs 20:27
The lamp of the LORD searches the spirit of a man;it searches out his inmost being.

The Light of the lord will light your way it will show all your sin so we need to be washed in the blood of Christ so when The LIGHT OF THE LORD shines us we will be as white as snow.

There is a little voice that tells you what is wrong or right if you feel it is wrong it is.
Word Study: CONSCIENCE

The term does not appear in the Old Testament but the concept does. David, for example, was smitten in his heart because of his lack of trust in the power of God (2 Sam. 24:10). But his guilt turned to joy when he sought the Lord's forgiveness (Psalm 32).In the New Testament the term "conscience" is found most frequently in the writings of the apostle Paul. Some people argue erroneously that conscience takes the place of the external law in the Old Testament. However, the conscience is not the ultimate standard of moral goodness (1 Cor. 4:4). Under both the old covenant and the new covenant the conscience must be formed by the will of God. The law given to Israel was inscribed on the hearts of believers (Heb. 8:10; 10:16); so the sensitized conscience is able to discern God's judgment against sin (Rom. 2:14-15).The conscience of the believer has been cleansed by the work of Jesus Christ; it no longer accuses and condemns (Heb. 9:14; 10:22). Believers are to work to maintain pure consciences. They also must be careful not to encourage others to act against their consciences. To act contrary to the urging of one's conscience is wrong, for actions that go against the conscience cannot arise out of faith (1 Cor. 8:7-13; 10:23-30).

Pictures took on trail took at the same places to show the changes...

The above photos are again of the three areas along the trail that i have marked with my gps system to see the changes as we go from summer to fall. When down the trail today had a good time it is always good to get out of the house.

I am getting tired of hearing on the nes of the spoiled brats and thier exploits we need to ignore there ways. Te sad thing is our KIDS look up to these people why cann't the news tell of good thing people do instead of reporting on this trah.

Daily Bible Verse - 7/25/2007 - Psalm 150:6

Let every thing that hath breath praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD. (KJV)

We need to praise the Lord everyday it is him who gives our daily Bread. I am myself glad to be christian...

Commentary
150:6 everything. All of God's living creation. This is the fitting conclusion to Book Five of the Psalms (Pss. 107-150) and to the entire Psalter.

Well no photos today as I awoke to Rain Thunder, and Lightning. There is not much to write on today we were under a sever Thunder Stom warning for a short Time today that is why it is good to either have a scanner or a weather radio to keep up on local problems and hazards. The greatest problem is people say oh that will nevr happen here well maybe it will not we are not indanger here to the full brunt of a hurricane but the rains are a factor as we do have chance of flash floods and urban flooding is dangerous to as drains and storm sewer over flows. One thing for sure we need to have a good relationship with God he will see you through the rough times and make the good times even better.\
Daily Bible Verse - 7/24/2007 - John 3:18
He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. (KJV)
We need to believe it is the only way he is not going to force to believe we have to come of our own free will.
John 3:18
Commentary3:18 believed in the name. This phrase (lit. "to believe into the name") means more than mere intellectual assent to the claims of the gospel. It includes trust and commitment to Christ as Lord and Savior which results in receiving a new nature (v. 7) which produces a change in heart and obedience to the Lord (see notes on 2:23-25).MacArthur, J. J. (1997, c1997). The MacArthur Study Bible (electronic ed.) (Jn 3:18). Nashville: Word Pub.Did you know?Titles of Jesus reflect something significant of His person and/or work.The name Jesus (which is identical with Joshua and means "God is Savior") emphasizes His role as the Savior of His people (Matt. 1:21).Christ is the New Testament equivalent of Messiah, a Hebrew word meaning "anointed one" (cf. Acts 4:27; 10:38). This title emphasized that Jesus was divinely appointed to His mission, that He had an official relationship to God the Father-that is, He had a job to do and a role to discharge at the Father's appointing.Son of Man was the title used almost exclusively by Jesus Himself (cf. Matt. 9:6; 10:23; 11:19). Some feel He used it because it most clearly distinguished His Messiahship from the erroneous ideas of His time.The name Son of God was also applied to Jesus in an official or messianic sense (cf. Matt. 4:3, 6; 16:16; Luke 22:70; John 1:49). It emphasized that He was a Person of the triune Godhead, supernaturally born as a human being.Lord was alternately applied to Jesus as a simple title (somewhat like "Mr."), a title of authority or ownership, or (sometimes) an indication of His equality with God (e.g., Mark 12:36-37; Luke 2:11; Matt. 7:22).

The day was another great show of Gods Handy Work. The butterflies are plentyful as they work the many wildflowers along the trail this is a totally diffrent butterfly than I have photographed.

The day was another cool day for a July Day was quite enjoyable.

This a land turtle many of which have made their home along the trail.

A thought for today is we need to be prepared for trouble as there is only one person we can count on is Jesus but we need to help our selves a kit with our needs food water at least enough to do 72 hours and candles .

and matches batteries flashlight a battery radio for news it would hurt to have a scanner to keep up on local warnings. Also in this kit a bible would help in conforting .

The above pictures are the are from thearea i am taking picures to see the daily changes as we go throught the end of summer..

Daily Bible Verse - 7/23/2007 - Romans 8:1-2

Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit of life set me free from the law of sin and death. (NIV)

All things are possible in Christ he payed the debt off for our sins but we have to ask him to save us from our sins. It is there for the asking he dose not force to follow him but if we dont want to perish we had better.

CommentaryOccurring only 3 times in the NT, all in Romans (cf. 5:16, 18), "condemnation" is used exclusively in judicial settings as the opposite of justification. It refers to a verdict of guilty and the penalty that verdict demands. No sin a believer can commit-past, present, or future-can be held against him, since the penalty was paid by Christ and righteousness was imputed to the believer. And no sin will ever reverse this divine legal decision (see note on v. 33).

This is another of the picutures on

the back of the Pennsboro Fire hall.

This one is very special to me my days as fireman are some of my best memories and some of them are my worse.

The above pictures shows a very great Sunday here as I roll up the trail from church to my home i can only say days like this are truly the work Of God as the peacefuness of a Sunday as you go home from a day of fellowship.

The news is still frustrating to me how could someone like Micheal Vick a person who is roll model for kids be involved in a senseless sport like Dog fighting. It seems to me that our youth today has no good role models are athletes are using drugs to enhance the abilties where is the there any sport for some one to win and be on preformance enhacing drugs .

When I was a kid in school we prayed said the pledge allegance and the teacher was allowed to paddle us if we were out of line and that wasn't the worst of it you got in trouble for it at home.

Now days kids dont have chores to preform each day like we use to I can remember feeding the hogs and the other animals before school and working in the garden when getting home plus I had to do my school work .

Daily Bible Verse - 7/22/2007 - Deuteronomy 32:4

He is the Rock, his works are perfect, and all his ways are just. A faithful God who does no wrong, upright and just is he. (NIV)He is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he. (KJV)The Rock! His work is perfect,For all His ways are just;A God of faithfulness and without injustice,Righteous and upright is He. (NASB)
Deuteronomy 32:4Commentary32:4 the Rock. This word, representing the stability and permanence of God, was placed at the beginning of the verse for emphasis and was followed by a series of phrases which elaborated the attributes of God as the Rock of Israel. It is one of the principle themes in this song (see vv. 15, 18, 30, 31), stressing the unchanging nature of God in contrast with the fickle nature of the people.MacArthur, J. J. (1997, c1997). The MacArthur Study Bible (electronic ed.) (Dt 32:4). Nashville: Word Pub
The Wise and Foolish Builders
46"Why do you call me, 'Lord, Lord,' and do not do what I say? 47I will show you what he is like who comes to me and hears my words and puts them into practice. 48He is like a man building a house, who dug down deep and laid the foundation on rock. When a flood came, the torrent struck that house but could not shake it, because it was well built. 49But the one who hears my words and does not put them into practice is like a man who built a house on the ground without a foundation. The moment the torrent struck that house, it collapsed and its destruction was complete."Luke 6:46-49 (NIV)

Woke this morning to another unsual July morning of tempature was cool for a July day but everyday I can run up down the trail is a great day.

Set at Depot with Charlie today always a good day setting talking to him we share a common intrests in ham radio and other things.

Been studing the emergecy training and it is quite scary to think what could happen if we had a promblen on the eastern seaboard of this country one tank of gas from the Washington DC area will put you in the area of Parkersburg and to east in to our county what would we do for an influx of people with limited space and infrastructure this area could not handle this.

Daily Bible Verse - 7/21/2007 - Proverbs 29:4

By justice a king gives a country stability,but one who is greedy for bribes tears it down. (NIV)The king by judgment establisheth the land: but he that receiveth gifts overthroweth it. (KJV)The king gives stability to the land by justice,But a man who takes bribes overthrows it. (NASB)
Proverbs 29:4CommentaryBy acting with justice, a king brings his country to a position of strength. The one who accepts bribes to pervert justice is undermining the stability of the government.MacDonald, W., & Farstad, A. (1997, c1995). Believer's Bible Commentary : Old and New Testaments (Pr 29:4). Nashville: Thomas Nelson.
Bribery
Bribery erodes the very foundation of the law and of the land (Prov. 29:4) and must be hated as an enemy (Prov. 15:27). It perverts justice (Prov. 17:23), provides offices for dishonest people (Prov. 18:16), purchases favors (Prov. 19:6), and pacifies people without solving problems (Prov. 21:14). The person whose integrity is for sale is not fit to govern.Wiersbe, W. W. (1997, c1991). With the word Bible commentary (Pr 29:1). Nashville: Thomas Nelson.

Daily Bible Verse - 7/20/2007 - Deuteronomy 16:19

Do not pervert justice or show partiality. Do not accept a bribe, for a bribe blinds the eyes of the wise and twists the words of the righteous. (NIV)Thou shalt not wrest judgment; thou shalt not respect persons, neither take a gift: for a gift doth blind the eyes of the wise, and pervert the words of the righteous. (KJV)
You shall not distort justice; you shall not be partial, and you shall not take a bribe, for a bribe blinds the eyes of the wise and perverts the words of the righteous. (NASB)
Deuteronomy 16:19CommentaryJustice is the quality of dealing with people fairly. Judges particularly were expected to reflect God's just nature (32:4) by not dealing with the accused on the basis of discrimination, false witness, or hearsay. A bribe is any gift that might change the balance in favor of the giver, thus tipping the scales of justice (Ex. 23:8).Radmacher, E. D., Allen, R. B., & House, H. W. (1999). Nelson's new illustrated Bible commentary (Dt 16:19). Nashville: T. Nelson Publishers.
Did you know?
Deuteronomy reads like a contract with God. Bible experts say the outline of Deuteronomy follows the format of ancient treaties between kings and their subjects.In these treaties, such as those of the Hittites in the time of Moses, the king outlines what he expects of the people and what he will give them in return. The treaty also warns the people what will happen if they break their part of the bargain.Here's the basic outline of ancient treaties, compared to the sections of Deuteronomy that seem to fit the pattern.1. Preamble, which identifies the ruler (1:1-5).2. Prologue, describing history of the relationship between ruler and servant (1:6-3:29).3. Rules of the treaty (chapters 4-26).4. Oath of allegiance, with benefits of keeping the treaty and consequences for breaking it (chapters 27-30).5. Instructions for observing the treaty, such as periodically reading it in public (chapters 31-34).Miller, S. M., & Gross, P. (1998). How to get into the Bible. Includes index. (59). Nashville: T. Nelson Publishers.

Daily Bible Verse - 7/18/2007 - 1 Thessalonians 5:14
And we urge you, brothers, warn those who are idle, encourage the timid, help the weak, be patient with everyone. (NIV)Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are unruly, comfort the feebleminded, support the weak, be patient toward all men. (KJV)
We urge you, brethren, admonish the unruly, encourage the fainthearted, help the weak, be patient with everyone. (NASB)
1 Thessalonians 5:14CommentaryThis verse seems to be addressed to the spiritual leaders of the congregation; it tells them how to deal with problem brothers:1. Warn those who are unruly-those who won't keep in step but insist on disturbing the peace of the church by their irresponsible behavior. Here the unruly are those who refuse to work. They are the same as those described in 2 Thessalonians 3:6-12, walking disorderly, not working, but being busybodies.2. Comfort the fainthearted-those who need constant exhortation to rise above their difficulties and go on steadfastly for the Lord. Concerning the KJV rendering, Comfort the feeble-minded, Ockenga remarks: "If the word meant feeble-minded we would still comfort them. They seem to gather when the gospel is preached." And isn't this a tribute to the gospel and to the Christian church? At least there is one sphere where they find sympathy, love, and consideration.3. Uphold the weak-that is, help those who are spiritually, morally, or physically weak. Spiritual and moral support of those who are weak in the faith is probably the main idea, though we should not rule out financial help as well.4. Be patient with all-show the grace of longsuffering when others tend to irritate and provoke. MacDonald, W., & Farstad, A. (1997, c1995). Believer's Bible Commentary : Old and New Testaments (1 Th 5:14). Nashville: Thomas Nelson.

First Thessalonians is probably the oldest book in the New Testament, written about twenty years after the death and resurrection of Jesus. The Gospels, describing the life of Jesus, were written a decade or more later, to preserve the stories the disciples had told.Miller, S. M., & Gross, P. (1998). How to get into the Bible.

MINERAL WELLS — When Wood County Assessor Steve Grimm got a phone call asking him about Australians buying up property in Mineral Wells, he thought it was a joke.“Last Tuesday someone called, saying they were from Bloomberg and started asking me what I thought about the Australians buying up property in Mineral Wells. Frankly, I thought some one was joking,” he said.In reality, what Grimm learned later was an Australian firm had purchased the holding company that has as an asset a warehouse/office building and 7.5 acres in the Mineral Wells area, which is the property of the Bureau of Public Debt. “I wasn’t seeing any transfer of property or any indication the property changed hands, and I kept telling them that. Apparently this holding company bought it. There won’t be any deed transfer, and the building’s use will not change, so outwardly there won’t be any change; no one would know,” Grimm said. “They made it sound like there was a run of foreign investors in Wood County, which may not necessarily be bad if they brought economic development and jobs.“After the initial phone call, someone contacted me wanting to bring in television cameras. They actually contracted with some freelance camera guys from Ohio to come down here and film the building and interviewed me on camera. It was kind of strange. I don’t think after they found out what it really was that they ever aired the story,” Grimm said.“It must be big news from their end. It won’t change anything significantly here. They are just buying the equity, I’m assuming, and seeing the worth of being able to get more for their money in the smaller areas,” he said.After showing up on the Internet recently, the story raised quite a few eyebrows locally. The story that appeared on USA Business Asia by Bloomberg and on the Internet by the International Herald Tribune said Australian property investors “find a haven in small town.”The article, written by David M. Levitt, said the executive director of Record Realty said he considered buying in Washington before his company acquired Government Properties Trust in April for $223 million.“The takeover gave Record Realty 22 properties spread across 14 states, including a warehouse in Mineral Wells, which has a population 1,860 and more than two hours by car from Columbus, Ohio, the nearest major city,” according to the article.Record Realty paid $275 a square foot for Government Properties, or about a third the going rate for office buildings in New York, according to the article on the Internet. In another reference to the area, the article calls it “Mineral Springs.”According to Levitt’s article, the director expects “Record Realty to make a 7.1 percent return in the first year of owning Government Properties. The buildings are all leased to federal and local government agencies. They include the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s regional office in Denver and a Bureau of Public Debt storage building in Mineral Wells, an unincorporated Ohio Valley town just south of Parkersburg, West Virginia, the Wood County seat.” The story notes “Australian investors widened their lead as the biggest international buyers of U.S. real estate, spurning skyscrapers in New York and San Francisco for warehouses in Mineral Wells, West Virginia, and malls in Sylvania, Ohio.”Contact Pamela Brust at pbrust@newsandsentinel.com.

Daily Bible Verse - 7/17/2007 - Isaiah 45:6
so that from the rising of the sunto the place of its settingmen may know there is none besides me.I am the LORD, and there is no other. (NIV)That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none beside me. I am the LORD, and there is none else. (KJV)
That men may know from the rising to the setting of the sunThat there is no one besides Me.I am the LORD, and there is no other, (NASB)
Isaiah 45:6Commentary45:1-6The Lord calls Cyrus (see verses 1-6) His "anointed" (the same word as "messiah" in Hebrew) because the Persian monarch was a prototype of the Messiah who would give final deliverance to His people. Jehovah promises to give him victory over nations, principally Babylon, to remove all hindrances to his conquests, and to hand over to him tremendous amounts of hidden riches in secret places. Still addressing Cyrus, the Lord speaks of Himself as the only true God, who calls Cyrus by name, who surnames him as anointed and shepherd (44:28), and who equips him for his mission. God does all this for the sake of His people, and so that the whole world may know that He alone is the Lord.

Daily Bible Verse - 7/16/2007 - Psalm 74:16
The day is yours, and yours also the night;you established the sun and moon.(NIV)The day is thine, the night also is thine: thou hast prepared the light and the sun.(KJV)
Yours is the day, Yours also is the night;You have prepared the light and the sun. (NASB)
Psalm 74:16CommentaryIn His great works of creation (Gen. 1) God established His rule over day, night, light, and the sun. In addition, He established the seasons and set borders, a reference to the limitations He placed on the waters (Prov. 8:27-29).Radmacher, Earl D. ; Allen, Ronald Barclay ; House, H. Wayne: Nelson's New Illustrated Bible Commentary. Nashville : T. Nelson Publishers, 1999, S. Ps 74:16-17
Did you know?
On at least two occasions, He (God) interrupted the sun's regular course for His purposes. The sun stood still for Joshua at Gibeon (Josh. 10:13), and it went backwards for Hezekiah when he prayed for an extension of his life (Is. 38:8).God also has the power to darken the sun. The prophet Joel predicted He would do that on the day of the Lord (Joel 2:31). Three of the gospel writers (Matt. 27:45; Mark 15:33; Luke 23:44-45) tell us that the sun grew dark at the Crucifixion. At the end of the world, God will extinguish the sun (Rev. 6:12; 9:2; 21:23; 22:5).Youngblood, Ronald F. ; Bruce, F. F. ; Harrison, R. K. ; Thomas Nelson Publishers: Nelson's New Illustrated Bible Dictionary. Nashville : T. Nelson, 1995

I am reposting this picture as I set here listening to the police on the scanner as they talk about the people who shot a bunch of deer and just left them lay to rot. That is so mean and wasteful it is no problem shooting deer for food but to kill a bunch let them lay in the farmrs fieldto rot. Also they are apparently shooting mailboxes that is also stupid an very dangerous. Iam done griping now.
The day was very nice and enjoyabe to ride down the trail and along the way I met a very nice old couple who wre riding the trail and ten i run on to Chuck WB8NSL and we talked about the repeater and the hope of getting the antenna on the UHF repeater.

For since death came through a man, the resurrection of the dead comes also through a man. For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive.(NIV)For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. (KJV)For since by a man came death, by a man also came the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all will be made alive. (NASB)
1 Corinthians 15:21-22CommentaryThe first man, Adam, transgressed God's law and brought sin and death into the world (Gen. 2:17; 3:19; Rom. 5:12-21); the second Man, Jesus Christ, was the perfect sacrifice to take away sin and to bring life and resurrection to those who believe in Him (Rom. 5:15-21).in Christ all shall be made alive: The principle here is similar to that in Rom. 5:18, 19, where Paul explains that by one man's (Adam's) sin many were made unrighteous, whereas by one Man's (Christ's) obedience many will be made righteous.

Daily Bible Verse - 7/11/2007 - Romans 5:19
For just as through the disobedience of the one man the many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of the one man the many will be made righteous. (NIV)For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous. (KJV)For as through the one man's disobedience the many were made sinners, even so through the obedience of the One the many will be made righteous. (NASB)
Romans 5:19CommentaryJust as by Adam's disobedience to God's command many were made sinners, so also by Christ's obedience to the Father many who trust Him are declared righteous. Christ's obedience led Him to the cross as our Sin bearer.It is futile for universalists to use these verses to try to prove that all men will eventually be saved. The passage deals with two federal headships, and it is clear that just as Adam's sin affects those who are "in him," so Christ's righteous act benefits only those who are "in Him."MacDonald, William ; Farstad, Arthur: Believer's Bible Commentary : Old and New Testaments. Nashville : Thomas Nelson, 1997, c1995, S. Ro 5:19

The Hebrew word 'adam is used over 500 times in the Old Testament in the sense of "human being" or "humanity." Only in early Genesis and 1 Chronicles 1:1 is 'adam the proper name of Adam, the first man. Early Genesis defines Adam's role in history. Any insight we're given into Adam as an individual is found there
