Administrators Gail Posted July 13, 2009 Author Administrators Posted July 13, 2009 Correct! Who called God "the one who sees"? Quote Isaiah 32:17 And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever.
Members rudywoofs (Pam) Posted July 13, 2009 Members Posted July 13, 2009 Who called God "the one who sees"? Jesus? John 12:45 (the NIV doesn't really say it that way, but other translations seem to say it that way) Quote Pam Meddle Not In the Affairs of Dragons; for You Are Crunchy and Taste Good with Ketchup. If we all sang the same note in the choir, there'd never be any harmony. Funny, isn't it, how we accept Grace for ourselves and demand justice for others?
Administrators Gail Posted July 14, 2009 Author Administrators Posted July 14, 2009 Try Hagar, mother of Ishmael- Genesis 16:13 NIV. Actually I have the NKJV here and it says it very plainly. Let's try another: Who was described as walking with God, and then God "took him"? Quote Isaiah 32:17 And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever.
Members rudywoofs (Pam) Posted July 14, 2009 Members Posted July 14, 2009 Try Hagar, mother of Ishmael- Genesis 16:13 NIV. Actually I have the NKJV here and it says it very plainly. I couldn't find that one at all when I was searching for the answer. Quote: Who was described as walking with God, and then God "took him"? Enoch Genesis 5:24 Quote Pam Meddle Not In the Affairs of Dragons; for You Are Crunchy and Taste Good with Ketchup. If we all sang the same note in the choir, there'd never be any harmony.

Administrators Gail Posted July 14, 2009 Author Administrators Posted July 14, 2009 Well, that makes sense, as it is a once-only type of saying. Actually, I thought that she called him the God that HEARS, but upon looking it up I was corrected on that. The cool thing about it is that even though Hagar was a foreigner and a slave, God SAW her. He considered her and respected her position. And although Ishmael was not the promised, chosen son for the Messiah to come (from his line), the blessing given to Abraham fell also on him. Ishmael was blessed with children also as the stars in the sky for number and 12 sons. I just think it was such an awesome story of God's love. So, with that memory of God's dealing with Hagar, she could return to her mistress as directed, and submit herself to Sarah. She would be taken care of. And Enoch is the correct answer to the question following that. Well, after that spiel, let's try another question: What did God claim as sanctified unto Him, both of man and beast? Quote Isaiah 32:17 And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever.
Members rudywoofs (Pam) Posted July 14, 2009 Members Posted July 14, 2009 What did God claim as sanctified unto Him, both of man and beast? The firstborn Exodus 13:2 Quote Pam Meddle Not In the Affairs of Dragons; for You Are Crunchy and Taste Good with Ketchup. If we all sang the same note in the choir, there'd never be any harmony.

Administrators Gail Posted July 14, 2009 Author Administrators Posted July 14, 2009 Yep! Who was referred to as a skilled player on the harp? Quote Isaiah 32:17 And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever.
Members rudywoofs (Pam) Posted July 14, 2009 Members Posted July 14, 2009 Who was referred to as a skilled player on the harp? David 1 Samuel 16:16-18 (I wish I could play my harp as well as David must have been able to play his harp...)

Administrators Gail Posted July 14, 2009 Author Administrators Posted July 14, 2009 The harp is such a peaceful sounding instrument... Yes, Jesus is the author and finisher of our faith. Right you are, Pam! When Solomon built the temple, what did he name Jachin and Boaz?

Members rudywoofs (Pam) Posted July 14, 2009 Members Posted July 14, 2009 Jehoiakim (but Jeremiah re-dictated all the words of the 1st scroll and they were placed onto a 2nd one...with many words added ... v. 32) Jeremiah 36:22-27 Quote Pam Meddle Not In the Affairs of Dragons; for You Are Crunchy and Taste Good with Ketchup.

Administrators Gail Posted July 15, 2009 Author Administrators Posted July 15, 2009 Yes- Jehoiakim was the one. What Old Testament prophet describes a city similar to the one in Revelation 21? Quote Isaiah 32:17 And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever.

Administrators Gail Posted July 16, 2009 Author Administrators Posted July 16, 2009 In Matthew 24:15 (Matthew 24 is the chapter that talks about the end of the world), Jesus refers to Daniel the prophet. I don't know if the questions will continue to be difficult. But we ARE getting close to the end of the series. Soon we will need to find something else to keep us rolling on for 150 pages!! What king sent cedars to both David and Solomon? Quote Isaiah 32:17 And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever.
