John 13:3

Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into His hands, and that He had come from God and was going to God...


Greetings Bible Enthusiast!

Can you imagine the confidence and sense of purpose the above knowledge must have given Jesus? The Bible also tells us where we had come from and where we are going. Isn't it a good idea to study scripture, that we will be equipped with this knowledge!

God Bless You!

"Measure the bed frame before you leave," I told him.

"I don't have a tape measure."

"You can use a dollar bill," I suggested, "each one is six inches long."

"Can't," he replied after digging through his wallet, "I only have a ten."

A. She should be stoned.

John 8:2-5

Now early in the morning He came again into the temple, and all the people came to Him; and He sat down and taught them. Then the scribes and Pharisees brought to Him a woman caught in adultery. And when they had set her in the midst, they said to Him, "Teacher, this woman was caught in adultery, in the very act. Now Moses, in the law, commanded us that such should be stoned.
