THE BIBLE SPEAKS DAILY, May 8th, 2024.

TODAY'S TOPIC:- 

ARE YOU PROPERLY DRESSED?

TODAY'S BIBLE VERSE:-

"...Clothe yourselves therefore, as God's own chosen ones (His own picked representatives), [who are] purified and holy and well-beloved [by God Himself, by putting on behavior marked by] tenderhearted pity and mercy, kind feeling, a lowly opinion of yourselves, gentle ways, [and] patience [which is tireless and long-suffering, and has the power to endure whatever comes, with good temper]...". Colossians 3:12 AMPC

Many people in our days spend lots of money on clothes. They want to look and feel good. People like to dress in the latest styles, get the latest haircut, and they love to look the epitome of success. Have you ever dressed well and looked good on the outside, but on the inside you didn’t feel pretty or well put together? God knows our hearts. He cares about what is inside of us. You can spend as much money as you can afford on your outside appearance, but if you have an angry heart, bitter smile, are impatient, or hateful, you are not clothing yourself as God would have you do. Think about how you can change your heart and mind so it is pleasing to God. Then watch how you radiate on the outside, what you’re feeling inside. - Commentary by Anna Pachaud

Today’s Prayer:
Lord, help me to always radiate goodness and love from the heart. Remind me daily that it’s what’s inside that means so much more than what I am wearing on the outside. Amen.

CHRISTIANS AND POLITICS.

              CHRISTIANS AND POLITICS. By: Benson Omole. If there is anything that will spark a spontaneous debate, among believers, if not an outright argument, it is a discussion involving politics. As followers of Christ, how should we view politics, what should be our attitudes and our involvements with politics? In these contemporary times we live in today, it is increasingly becoming difficult to differentiate between an active Politician, and a faithful Christian! Small efforts shall be made to define what Christian life and values are. Why are we saved, and our responsibilities, now that we are saved? We shall also examine few classical definitions of politics, and its theories.  Readers must be able to decide whether to enter in “by the narrow gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leads to destruction, and many are they that enter in thereby. For narrow is the gate, and straitened the way, that leads unto life, and few are they that find it.” –Jesu

The Origin of Israel.

ORIGIN OF ISRAEL. The origin of Israel is rooted in ancient history and has complex historical, religious, and political dimensions. It's important to understand that the topic is multifaceted, but I can provide a brief overview: 1. Ancient History: The region that is now Israel has a long history dating back thousands of years, with various indigenous peoples and empires controlling the area. In ancient times, the land was inhabited by Hebrews, Canaanites, Philistines, and others. 2. Biblical History: The Hebrew Bible (Old Testament) contains accounts of the Israelites' conquest of the land under figures like Moses and Joshua. It describes the establishment of the Kingdom of Israel. 3. Roman Conquest: In 63 BCE, the Roman Empire conquered the region, leading to the dispersion of Jews and the destruction of the Second Temple in 70 CE. 4. Modern Israel: After centuries of Jewish diaspora, the Zionist movement emerged in the late 19th century, advocating for the reest

The Truth About Christmas

The Truth About Christmas                            George G. Pennock. As we enter the season of the year when many of our friends and neighbors are observing the birthday of Christ, it is appropriate that we give some time to a careful study of Christmas. In this article we will attempt to give you a comprehensive picture of the truth about Christmas. Some of the material presented has been adapted from James L. Dennison's booklet, "The History Of Christmas" and Eris B. Benson's work, "The Question Of Christmas." We lay no claim to originality. Have you ever stopped and thought about the origin and history of Christmas? We are prone to take so many things for granted! Where did Christmas come from? Who authorized it? Many of us will quickly answer that it was ordained by God, and originated when Christ was born. But are you sure of this? Could you prove it from the Bible? Permit us to deal with some of the traditions which most of us have taken
