What does “kick against the pricks” mean?
What
image comes to mind when you hear the biblical phrase “kick against the pricks”? There is no doubt in my mind that the
images that pop into 21st century American minds aren’t the same as that of
readers of the Greek text of Acts 1800 years ago. It is a very important phrase
that gives us a glimpse into the minds of the scribes that copied the Greek
text and their Gentile readers. Please share this blog with others, too! Read

Biblical Wisdom for Successful Living Today!
Wisdom and knowledge are related but not synonymous. The
dictionary defines wisdom as “the ability to discern or judge what
is true, right, or lasting.” Knowledge, on the other hand, is defined
as “information gained through experience, reasoning, or acquaintance.”
Knowledge can exist without wisdom, but wisdom cannot exist without knowledge.
One can be knowledgeable without being wise. Knowledge is knowing how
to use a gun; wisdom is knowing when to use it and when to keep it holstered.
We
are living in the Information Age, drowning in tsunamis of knowledge-claims. What’s
missing is wisdom! The Wisdom of the
Beginnings is recorded in the opening chapters of Genesis. It is packed with Time-Tested
Values, Principles & Insights that give those who understand them
distinct advantages in making successful decisions for living today – and it’s free! Got to -- http://www.tovcenter.org/wisdom.html

The Real Ten Commandments
Think about the Ten
Commandments. How many sermons have been preached,
books have been written, movies have been made, monuments have been constructed
and court cases tried in which the focus was on the Ten Commandments. Now what
would you say if I told you they weren’t about the actual Ten Commandments. Are
you ready for a surprise?
What they called the Ten Commandments in the examples above were not the commandments
written on the two stone tablets Moses received at the top of Mount Sinai and
brought down to the Israelites! If you are willing to follow Moses up and down
Mt Sinai, you will discover when he received the stone tablets and what was
written on them. The journey begins by going to – http://www.biblicalheritage.org/ten_commandments_p1.html

Who Was the First Christ of the Bible and What Kind of Christ was Jesus?
A
common assumption among people is that Christ was the last name of Jesus. There
are two good reasons for this assumption.
(1) In our culture people are normally
identified by two names, i.e., John
Smith.
(2) In the English New Testaments most
people read, he was called Jesus Christ.
Now
let’s turn to the word “Christ” which we read in our Bibles. The first thing we must understand is
that every English Bible is called a translation. The translators
worked from ancient Greek manuscripts to make their translations. In those
ancient manuscripts, when they saw the Greek word below they wrote “Christ” in
their translation. Read the complete article at -- http://therealyesua.blogspot.com/2016/02/who-was-first-christ-of-bible-and-what.html

What if you had been there before creation began?
In
the last Wisdom of the Beginnings Blog
we found that three things existed before the creation process began:
(1) darkness
(2) a
deep body of water with a surface
(3) RUACH ELOHIYM
Is
there a difference between the ELOHIYM
that appeared in the Genesis 1:1 and RUACH
ELOHIYM that appears here in the second verse? What does RUACH mean? Read the complete blog at
