Verses added to the Bible

Many of the things that we were taught as Children turn out not to be in the Bible after all. That of course does not mean they are untrue or unwise.

I looked for that lion and lamb verse because I really believed it was there. The closest I could find was Is 65:25

Is 11:6-9 is also close where it says:

 

Waste not, want not?

I was afraid this thread was going to be about the comma Johanneum and the pericope!

 

Mar 16:9 And when Jesus had risen early the first day of the Sabbath, He appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom He had cast seven demons.
Mar 16:10 She went and told those who had been with Him, as they mourned and wept.
Mar 16:11 And those hearing that He lives, and was seen by her, they did not believe.
Mar 16:12 After that He appeared in another form to two of them, walking and going into the country.
Mar 16:13 And they went and told it to the rest. Neither did they believe those.
Mar 16:14 Afterward He appeared to the Eleven as they reclined. And He reproached their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they did not believe those who had seen Him after He had risen.
Mar 16:15 And He said to them, Go into all the world, proclaim the gospel to all the creation.
Mar 16:16 He who believes and is baptized will be saved, but he who does not believe will be condemned.
Mar 16:17 And miraculous signs will follow to those believing these things: in My name they will cast out demons; they will speak new tongues;
Mar 16:18 they will take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it will not hurt them. They will lay hands on the sick, and they will be well.
Mar 16:19 Then indeed, after speaking to them, the Lord was taken up into Heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.
Mar 16:20 And going out, they proclaimed everywhere, the Lord working with them and confirming the Word by miraculous signs following. Amen.


:laugh: :laugh:

 

Those who would make such a claim will think that until they do not have any and need some to buy food.

 

Pride goeth before a fall.

 

they will say "amen" to their own condemnation.

 

As Tentmaker said, simply because the verbatims aren't there doesn't mean the concept isn't taught.

1Th 4:7 For God hath not called us unto uncleanness, but unto holiness.

A proverb of Benjamin Franklin reproving slothfulness. Many reproofs of slothfulness in Proverbs.

Based on a common view of Rev. 22:1-5.

But "Lion and fatling" is close enough. The concept is there.

A conclusion usually derived from 1 Cor. 10:13. There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.

Sounds like 1 Cor. 13:12. For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.

The love of money, actually. 1Ti 6:10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

Pro 16:18 Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.

 

A summer is often a time of pride; but I don't think the Bible says that.

 

Calvin 3:16 For God so loved the world, He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever was elected before the foundation of the earth shall not perish but have everlasting life.

 

A Google of the phrase "elected before the foundation of the earth" yields
seven hits today, 3:36PM CST, 04 Mar 2007.

None of those hits are from the Bible.

Strangely, I just printed out my word study of
'before the foundation of the earth'. I'll need it
Sunday for 1 Peter 1:20 is in the lesson (1 Peter 13-25).

Here we go (Words of Christ in Red):

----------------------------------

The Greek word 'katabole' is translated foundation
and with 'cosmos' is translated 'foundation of the world'.

In the New Testament there are 10 occurances of
'foundation of the world'. There are two conditions:

pro (before)
apo (since or from)

Seven start with 'apo' (shown below in the small fount)
Three start with 'pro' (shown below in the Large fount)

The differences are doctrinaly significant:
the three starting with 'pro' has to do with
God's love of Christ, God's selection of Christ,
and Christ's selection of we Christ-ones.



Speaking of Christ in 1 Pe 1:20 (KJV1611):
Who verily was foreordeined before the foundation
of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you.

not written in the booke of life from the foundation of the world)
when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.

Shall I say, "Shall should be should"?

 

Yes, you should say 'shall' and shall say 'should'.

 

Sorry about that, you are right. It was just something to make someone smile.

 

Good Friday. Lent. Easter. Christmas.

 

Thank you. I needed a smile.
