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 36:1-12 Book# 1 of Psalms [in Smaller Chunks]

 

A Psalm of David, the servant of the Lord, to the chief Musician.

Psalm 36:1-12            Book# 1 of Psalms [in Smaller Chunks]

The [sinfulness] of the wicked, [who] says within [his] heart, that before [my] eyes, there is no fear [respect] of God. For he flatters himself in his own eyes, until his [sin] is found to be [despicable.] The words [from] his mouth are [sinful & deceitful.] 

He has [stopped being] wise & [doing] good. Upon his bed, he devises [plots of wickedness] & he [puts] himself in a [path] that is not good & he [doesn't loathe] evil. [Romans 12:9 Let love be without [false purposes. Loathe what] is evil & cling to [what] is good.]

O Lord, Your mercy is in the heavens & Your faithfulness reaches to the clouds. Your righteousness is like the [tallest] mountains. Your judgments are [as big as the large] deep [waters.] O Lord, You [safeguard] man & [animals.]

O God, how excellent Your loving kindness is! Therefore, the children of men, put their trust under the [shade] of Your wings. They shall be abundantly satisfied with the [richness] of Your house. And You shall make them drink of the river of Your pleasures. 

[Revelation 22:1-2 And he showed me a pure river of [the] Water of Life, crystal clear, proceeding out of the [thrones of God & of the Lamb. In the [middle] of [its] street & on either side of the river, there was the Tree of Life, which [bore] 12 [types of fruit] & yielded her fruit every month. And the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.]

For with You is the Fountain of Life. In Your Light, we shall see the light. [Revelation 7:15-17 Therefore, [those who] are before the throne of God & serve Him day & night in His temple & He, [Who] sits on the throne shall dwell among them. They shall no [longer] hunger & thirst anymore. 

Neither shall the sun, nor any heat [burn] them. For the Lamb, [Who] is in the [middle] of the throne shall feed them & shall lead them to Living Fountains of Waters. And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.]

O continue [to give] Your loving kindness to [those who] know You  & [give] Your righteousness to [those with] upright [hearts.] [Don't] let the foot of pride come against me & [don't] let the hand of the wicked remove me. The workers of [sin have] fallen there. They are cast down & shall not be able to rise [up.]

[1 Peter 5:6-8 Therefore, humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, [so] He may exalt you in due time. [Cast] all your [cares] upon Him: for He [cares] for you. Be sober & [watchful;] because your adversary, the devil [is like] a roaring lion, [that walks around,] seeking whom he may devour.]
