It's the only one written by one of Jesus' brothers?

Isaiah 32:17 And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever.

That sounds good to me.

Oh. Well it has been a controversial book from what I understand. Some claim that it does away with grace or something like that...

I don't know. :)

Been trying to figure out how to give a hint without giving away the answer. Anyway here goes, its the "first" of something! If you have the Harper study Bible and go to the book, they have an introduction, authorship and background. The info is there.

Oh. How kind of you. I didn't expect that. :)

No, I don't have that. I did a quick look through my bible program but didn't see anything.

I'll have to give up. :)

The answer is: It was the first book written of the NT.

I had never heard that before. My study Bible says that some hold it as the first book written.

Complete the following verse of Jesus': "Many are called..."

The first one(s) we know about would be Jesus and John the Baptist

Is that question right? Or are they going by order of known events? In which case it would be John the Baptist.

I don't think the OT....oops, Isaac came to mind and sure enough God gave him his name.

Any before him that we know about?

Gen 16:11 And the angel of the LORD said unto her, Behold, thou art with child, and shalt bear a son, and shalt call his name Ishmael; because the LORD hath heard thy affliction.

Thanks. I got a "flash" when that occurred to me and I looked it up! God acts and judges opposite than what we do!

She was an Egyptian with her own gods and religion, yet God still respected her and treated her as one of His own!

(Unless its not Ishmael, but still enjoyed the "flash". :) )

Not only did God respect Hagar, but He promised to make a mighty nation out of Ishmael as well as Abraham's heir. :)

Billy Graham's altar call hymn? Just As I Am.

All progress in the Spiritual Life is knowing and Loving GOD

"there is non upon earth that I desire besides YOU" PS 73:25

That perspective changes EVERYTHING-suffering and adversity are the means that makes us hungry for GOD. Disapointments will wean us away wordly occupations. Even sin(when repented of) becomes a mechanism to push us closer to HIM as we experience His Love and Forgiveness.
