About the Author of the Blogsite, Not the Author of the Bible::

About the Author of the Blogsite, Not the Author of the Bible: I was uncertain of how to accomplish this, mindful of Revelation 22:18-19, which says that nobody is to add to, or to take away from what was written in the Bible. After lots of prayerful contemplation, the Lord had it on my heart that I’m not to change the meaning of what is written in the Bible. He has also shown ways to add to people’s understating of that meaning, without altering the meaning, by putting that info within [brackets]. This is primarily accomplished with the KJV Bible and lots of prayers, but at times, BibleGateway.com, Biblehub.com, NIV Bible, Webster Dictionary, and other internet resources, as needed.

About Understanding the Bible:

Understanding the Bible: After reading Isaiah 28:10 many times over the years and not totally understanding it, it recently became apparent to me that the Lord God has this passage as the means for understanding the Bible. For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little. Isaiah 28:10 KJV. Being prayerful about this passage, and looking up 'precept' in the Webster's Dictionary, it gave this passage a whole new meaning, once 'commandment' is substituted for 'precept'. Within brackets are additional words the Lord had on my heart to aid in understanding the meaning. For commandment must be [built up] upon commandment; commandment upon commandment; line upon line, line upon line; [developing understanding] here a little, and there a little.

The Table Format:

The Table Format: I was overwhelmed with how to explain the process for determining if someone had leprosy in Leviticus 13, which seemed very complicated. After praying, "Lord, if this is difficult for me to understand after reading it many times, how can this be explained to others?" The thought the Lord God had on my heart was for me to put it into a vertical chart to visually see the process. This made it much easier for me to follow the progression. After doing so, I prayed, "Lord, how can this be conveyed to readers, so that they can understand this process?" The thought the Lord God had on my heart was to put it within the lines of a table. Being a stiff-necked, stubborn person, as it's often called in the Bible, I prayed, asking the Lord God if He's sure that's really what He wanted me to do? I reluctantly put Leviticus 13 into a table format. When I read this difficult leprosy process within a table format, it suddenly became easier for me to understand. That's because it builds line upon line, as explained in the Understanding the Bible section. Shortly after that, the Lord God had it on my heart, to put all of The Books of the Bible in Smaller Chunks within a table format, to aid in understanding, line upon line.

Psalm 19:1-14 Book# 1 of Psalms [in Smaller Chunks]

 

A Psalm of David, to the chief Musician.

Psalm 19:1-14            Book# 1 of Psalms [in Smaller Chunks]

The heavens declare the glory of God & the [sky] shows His handiwork. Speech is uttered day [by] day & night to night, knowledge [is revealed.] There is no speech, nor language, where their voice isn't heard. 

Their [measuring] line [has] gone out through all the earth & their words to the [ends] of the world. In [these,] He has [put] a tabernacle for the sun, which is [like] a bridegroom coming out of his [room, who] rejoices [like] a strong man [about] to run a race. 

He [goes out] from the [ends] of heaven. His [orbit is to] the ends of it & there is nothing hidden from [its] heat. [Romans 10:18 But I say, Haven't they heard? Yes, [truly,] their [voices] went into all the earth & their words to the ends of the world.] 

The Law of the Lord is perfect, [restoring] the soul. The Testimony of the Lord is [beyond doubt,] making the simple, wise. The [mandates] of the Lord are right, [causing] rejoicing [of] the heart.

The commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes. The fear [respect] of the Lord is [free from impurities,] enduring forever. The judgments of the Lord are altogether true & righteous.

They are more to be desired than gold. [Yes,] than much fine gold: also, sweeter than honey & the honeycomb. [Psalm 119:127 Therefore, I love Your commandments above gold; [yes,] above fine gold.] 

In keeping [these,] there is great reward & [also] by them, your servant is warned. Who can understand his errors? You, cleanse me from my secret faults. 

[Psalm 51:1-2 Have mercy upon me, O God, according to Your loving kindness. And according to Your [many] mercies, blot out my [sins.] Wash me thoroughly from [my] iniquity & cleanse me from my sin.] 

Keep Your servant back from [unintentional] sins & also [don't] let them have [control] over me. Then I shall be upright & I shall be innocent from the [large sins.] 

[Psalm 119:133 In Your Word, order my steps & [don't] let any [sin] have [control] over me.] Let the words of my mouth & the meditation of my heart be acceptable in Your sight, O Lord, my strength & my redeemer.
