10/04/18 A QUICK REVIEW OF STUDY LAST NIGHT

Wednesday Night Bible Study.
How to use Bible apps for devices
Records, Roots & Religions
"True Myth"
Astrology and Astronomy
Beowulf & Gilgamesh
True Faith.

You missed a really good Bible Study session last night at The NET HOUSE.

I showed the importance of having and using good Bible apps on smartphones or electronic devices. Using My Sword or Bible Hub or some other good application opens up a world wide source of scholarly and spiritual help and information. I encouraged people to use Bible believing documentation (commentaries, dictionaries) to research the introductory notes concerning Bible books.

I demonstrated the methods of keeping records and pointed out the ancient history and writings of God and the pagan religions. I dramatized the method of Adam and Seth and Enoch and Noah (along with Cain and other infidels) passing on historical truths and myths.

I explained the origin of nations, from Noah, Shem (Asian), Ham (African) and Japheth (European); and the former classification of races (Caucasoid, Negroid and Mongoloid); the development of other "racial" groups developing from Asian and mixed racial groups.

I explained the migration of Asian and Melanesian people to South America (by boats) and North America (land bridge across Bering Sea). I mentioned Thor Heyerdahl's journey. I pointed out the similarity of Asian, Indian, Native American peoples, due to a common ancestry. (check out the DNA evidence).

I mentioned the unified land masses being divided, forming the continents, which gave common life forms across vast ocean divides.

I explained the difference between astrology and astronomy; the common origin and similarities of Arabic, Egyptian, Greek, Roman, Nordic, Indian (sub -continental), Chinese, and Native Americans, developed separately by distance, language and geography.

I retraced the historicity of the Bible, through Job and Moses, pointing out that Job, living in the days of Abraham, already knew about the coming of Jesus and His death and His resurrection.

I introduced the idea of "True Myth" as expressed by Tolkien and Lewis. Pagan myths are based on Divine revelation that has been twisted, therefore they refer to the truth behind the myth as being the TRUE MYTH.

I addressed the similar "world wide flood" accounts throughout the world, through various cultures, but having the same origin in Noah.

I mentioned and addressed the Biblical roots of Beowulf and Gilgamesh.

I mentioned and addressed the problem of living without faith and living in opposition to the God of the Bible. This included personal and societal problems and sins. This also included the plight of the masses who live in squalor, such as the people in China who live in "cages," (while sharing a common room that serves as toilet, shower, kitchen and food preparation area), and the street people of San Francisco who also defecate openly on the public streets.

I pointed out the physical, social, hygienic, moral advantages provided through the Gospel.

I reiterated the dangers of Socialism and other anti-Biblical ideologies.

I finished by pointing out that FAITH in Christ and His word is the miraculous path of Divine intervention and deliverance from a life of sin.
We are saved by Biblical faith.
We walk by Biblical faith.
We hold on to faith until we go to be with the Lord.

Faith is the result of believing the word of God.
