Things in the Bible not really in the Bible...and a few surprises

Oops of the Day

In the Aaronic Blessing – “The Lord bless you and keep you,” – it means “may God  provide you with many blessings and keep you by his side.”

Numbers 6:24

Fact of the Day 

No!  The word “bless” in Hebrew is not to provide things for someone.  It means to bow down or kneel down. 

So, this blessing is saying, “MAY THE LORD KNEEL DOWN TO YOU!”  You may object that we kneel down to God, he does not kneel down to us.  But think again.  Our loving Father in heaven sometimes kneels down to be eye level with his child – as any good parent would do- and promises to protect that child.  That child is us!

Things in the Bible not really in the Bible...and a few surprises

Oops of the Day

God is good.  And I never did anything really, really bad.  So he’ll forgive me for everything I ever did and let me into heaven.

Proverbs 1:18  –  Proverbs 1:27-33  –  Proverbs 3:20-34  –  Proverbs 8:36  –   Matthew 7:2 – and many more

Fact of the Day 

No!  Don’t forget the boomerang effect.  What we do to others backfires on us.  It’s throughout the Bible.

• Proverbs 1:18 – commit armed robbery
• Proverbs 1:27ff – Find excuses to not read God’s advice — the Bible
• Proverbs 3:27-28- Too busy to help someone needing you
• Proverbs 3:30-34 – Lie about someone
• Proverbs 8:36 – Hate God
• Matthew 7:2 – Are judgmental of others.

….and many more.
