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.

Malachi 4:1-6 The Day Comes That Shall Burn Like an Oven

 

The Day Comes That Shall Burn Like an Oven

Malachi 4:1-6    The Book of Malachi [in Smaller Chunks]

For, [watch,] the day comes, that shall burn [like] an oven. And all the proud, [yes] & all [who] do wickedly, shall be stubble. The Lord of Hosts says, And the day comes that shall burn them up, that shall leave them neither root, nor branch.

[2 Peter 3:9-10 The Lord is not slack, [a.k.a. slow, about] His promise, [like] some men [consider] slackness; but is [patient toward] us, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. 

*But the day of the Lord will come [like] a thief in the night; in which the heaven shall pass away with a great noise, & the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth, & also the works, [a.k.a. things made,] that are [in there,] shall be burned up.] 

But to you, [who] fear [respect] My Name, the Sun of Righteousness shall arise with healing in His wings. And you shall go [out] I grow [like] calves [from] the stall. [Matthew 13:43-44 Then, the righteous shall shine [out, like] the sun, in the Kingdom of their Father. 

Who has ears to hear, let him hear. Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is [similar] to [hidden] treasure in a field, [with] which, when a man has found [it,] he hides [it,] & for joy [about it] goes & sells all that he has, & buys the field.]

And you shall [trample] down the wicked. For they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet, [on] the day that I shall do this, says the Lord of Hosts. You, remember the Law of Moses, My servant, [that] I commanded him in Horeb, [a.k.a. Mount Sinai,] for all Israel, with [mandates] & judgments. 

[Exodus 20:3-6 You shall have no other gods before Me. You shall not make [for yourselves] any [carved] image, or any likeness of anything that is in: heaven above; the earth [below;] or that is in the water under the earth. 

You shall not bow yourself down to them, nor serve them. For I, the Lord your God, Am a Jealous God, visiting the [sins] of the fathers upon the children, [until] the 3rd & 4th generation, of [those, who] hate Me; And [showing] mercy to 1,000's of [those, who] love Me, & keep My commandments.] 

[Watch,] I will send Elijah, the prophet, [to] you, before the coming of the great & dreadful day of the Lord. [Matthew 17:10-14 And His disciples asked Him, saying, Why then, [do] the scribes say that [Elijah] must come 1st? And Jesus answered & said, [Elijah,] shall truly come 1st, & restore all things. 

But I say to you, That [Elijah, has] already come, & they [didn't know] him, but have done to him, [whatever] they [wanted.] Likewise, the Son of Man shall also suffer [by] them. Then, the disciples understood that He [spoke about] John the Baptist to them.]

And He shall [return] the heart of the fathers to the children, & the [hearts] of the children to their fathers, lest I come & [strike] the earth with a curse. [Revelation 14:9-11 And the 3rd Angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man [worships] the beast, & his image, & [receives] his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, the same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of His indignation, [a.k.a. Anger over unfair treatment.] 

And he shall be tormented with fire & brimstone in the presence of the Holy Angels, & in the presence of the Lamb. And the smoke of their torment, [goes] up forever, & ever. And they have no rest day, nor night, who worship the beast & his image, & [whoever] receives the mark of his name. 

Here is the patience of the saints. Here are [those, who] keep the commandments of God, & the faith of Jesus. And I heard a voice from heaven saying to me, Write, Blessed are the dead, [who] die in the Lord from [now on.] [Yes,] says the Spirit, [so] that they may rest from their labors, & their works, [a.k.a. deeds,] follow them.]
