Acts 1:15a “In those days Peter stood up among the believers (a group numbering about one hundred and twenty) and said, ‘Brothers and sisters, the Scripture had to be fulfilled…” Jesus, our Advocate, was promised and that promise happened. Judas, as Jesus’ betrayer, was foretold by David and that promise was fulfilled. Jesus rising from the dead was promised and again, that promise was fulfilled. Our God will again come to earth and bring all believers to Himself in Heaven. God’s promises are always fulfilled. Believe and spread the Word–that is the duty of man/woman. Have a great weekend.

Acts 1:3 “After his suffering, he presented himself to them and gave many convincing proofs that he was alive. He appeared to them over a period of forty days and spoke about the kingdom of God.” Jesus was born, lived, fulfilled many Old Testament prophecies, suffered, died and (the most earth shattering event of all) rose from the dead. A person can accept it all, deny it all, accept some and deny some, but the proof is the last part of this verse—for 40 days He established proof. No human could possibly do what He did. Nothing is gained by denying. Everything is gained by living a believing and faith filled life. Pray and be sure to make the right choice. | | | | Join our Cloud HD Video Meeting Zoom is the leader in modern enterprise video communications, with an easy, reliable cloud platform for video an… | | | cis

Ecclesiastes 12:13 “Now all has been heard; here is the conclusion of the matter: Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the duty of all mankind.” Every person on earth is included in this one verse. Every person (whether they realize it or not is immaterial) is to be in awe of God, follow His intended purpose for each of us, live with a recognized fulfillment of that purpose and understand the meaninglessness of making life’s purpose the pursuit of earthly pleasure. NOTHING is more important than following God in all He has us do.

Ecclesiastes 12:9 “Not only was the Teacher wise, but he also imparted knowledge to the people. He pondered and searched out and set in order many proverbs.” Without God there is little, if any, meaning to life. Is the ultimate purpose of life pleasure and accumulation? If so, the song of maybe 30 years ago applies—is that all there is? Life for all of us has its happiness and sadness, yet we all have a God intended purpose/s to fulfill. Finding that purpose/s and praising our God in the process is the duty of man/woman.

Ecclesiastes 11:5 “As you do not know the path of the wind, or how the body is formed in the mother’s womb, so you cannot understand the work of God, the Maker of all things.” What is simpler than the wind? What is more complicated than the development of a child in the womb? And what about the rest of life and creation? How can something seem extremely complicated and yet appear as natural as the morning and the evening? God’s handiwork surrounds each of us in its simplicity and its complexity. Praise God with a believing faith and say to yourself with a childlike faith—Life with God is wonderful!

Ecclesiastes11:2 “Invest in seven ventures, yes, in eight; you do not know what disaster may come upon the land.” Solomon was a financial advisor. He may have invented the mentality of diversity. His mentality was: Diversify, as one investment might not do so well—therefore; have others so your income remains stable. The book of Proverbs has wisdom for living a successful life on this earth and living with our God eternally. Proverbs is just like the rest of Scripture. We study it for success. Have a great weekend.
