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.

Isaiah 12:1-6 Isaiah Foretells They Will Turn Back to the Lord God, Their Salvation

 

Isaiah Foretells They Will Turn Back to the Lord God, Their Salvation

Isaiah 12:1-6                               The Book of Isaiah [in Smaller Chunks]

And [on] that day, you shall say, O Lord, I will praise You: though You [were] angry with me, Your anger is [now] turned away & You comfort me.

[Look,] God is my Salvation. I will trust & won't be afraid: for the Lord, JEHOVAH, is my strength & my song. Also, He [has] become my Salvation. Therefore, you shall draw water out of the wells of Salvation with joy. 

And [on] that day, you shall say, Praise the Lord & call upon His Name. Declare His [actions] among the people & mention that His Name is exalted. Sing to the Lord; for He has done excellent things. This is known in all the earth.

[Psalm 78:12-16 Marvelous things [God] did in the sight of their [forefathers] in the land of Egypt, in the field of Zoan. He divided the sea & caused them to pass through & He made the waters to stand [like] a heap.

Also, in the daytime, He led them with a cloud & all night with a light of fire. He [split] the rocks in the wilderness & gave them [water to] drink, [like] out of great depths. He also brought streams out of the rock & caused waters to run down like rivers. 

Cry out & shout, you [residents] of Zion, [a.k.a. Jerusalem.] For great is the Holy One of Israel, in the midst of you.
