John 15:9 (CSB) "As the Father has loved me, I have also loved you. Remain in my love.

What is the proof that Jesus loves us? John 3:16 God so loves us that He sent Jesus to die for us. John 10:17 God loves Jesus because he willingly sacrificed his life to bing us to God. 1 John 3:16 Jesus laid down his life for us, we aught to lay down our life for our brothers in sisters. In short He died the death on the cross that was not his to die so that we may live with God now and forever. He was obedient to His father.  God does not see love except through obedience. To love is to be obedient, to be obedient is to love. (John 14:15,21,23)

The women with the issue of blood

​ The women with the issue of blood Soon after I was married our pastor’s wife gave a message called “The Hem of Him” and this woman was the main subject of her message. She talked about how she had to press through the crowd to get to Jesus. She talked about how she was unclean and should not be in the crowd. Then she related it to us that we have to press through all the doubts, internal and external, to get to Jesus. Most certainly we all have heard a message of this woman.  Did you pick up that she had an issue with bleeding for 12 years? Jairus’ daughter was 12 years old. Of course, neither the women nor Jairus knew this but Jesus did. And was willing to help both the synagogue ruler and this poor woman the same. He did not show favoritism but was moved by their faith.  Could this woman have touched a tassel on Jesus’ robe or did she just touch the hem of it? “The Lord said to Moses, “Speak to the Israelites and tell them that throughout their generations they are to make tassels

The Word of God is #1 living!

​ I want to take the next 4 to 6 posts in BQTT to dwell on what “the word of God is”. The Word of God is #1 living! In our hands, we do not hold some dusty old relic of some 35 to 40 authors. But a living book written by God through the hands of many different people over 1,000’s of years. Have you ever been reading a normal book and a few words jump off the page to say, “Hey, read me again.”? I bet there have been very few times this has happened, but now, how often have the words written in the Bible done that for you? If you spend any amount of time reading the Bible I would say it has happened more than the normal literature.  Last night I was lying down and a verse reference popped into my head. I did not immediately know the words of this verse but had to look it up.  The verse was, “Who makes a god or casts a metal image for no profit?” ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭44‬:‭10‬ ‭HCSB ‬‬ This is another aspect of the Bible being alive. The Holy Spirit will bring verses back to memory that we have long

Jephthah a Judge Whose Words Mattered

​ “When the Ammonites made war with Israel, the elders of Gilead went to get Jephthah from the land of Tob. They said to him, “Come, be our commander, and let’s fight against the Ammonites.” ‭‭Judges‬ ‭11‬:‭5‬-‭6‬ ‭HCSB ‬‬ Judge #10 Jephthah Jephthah is an interesting judge. First, he was kicked out of the family because he was the son of a prostitute. But then he was called upon because of his military might. He reasoned with the king who was fighting against Israel. He made a vow that ended in the death of his only daughter. Then he fought against Ephraim, a tribe in Israel, and killed them based on their accent. “Gilead’s wife bore him sons, and when they grew up, they drove Jephthah out and said to him, “You will have no inheritance in our father’s house, because you are the son of another woman.” ‭‭Judges‬ ‭11‬:‭2‬ ‭HCSB ‬‬ “Jephthah the Gileadite was a great warrior, but he was the son of a prostitute, and Gilead was his father.” ‭‭Judges‬ ‭11‬:‭1‬ ‭HCSB ‬‬ “Jephthah sent messeng
