BIBLICAL KNOWLEDGE

61-Did you know that Lot, and his family had been spared from under the wrath of God because of Abraham’s intercessory prayer? Lot was a member of the City of Sodom's ruling council, as a judge and was warned about the coming harm and given a chance to escape with the help of God's messengers. Lot's wife herself, was very hesitant about leaving her home and material possessions. Her heart had become attached to the lifestyle the city had provided.

62-Did you know that there is a final and absolute separation of all mankind into two distinct groups? All live together in the world until the end of the age. The parable of The Wheat and The Tares (weeds) illustrates an aspect of the truth. Those who have responded to the good news of God's present reign in Jesus' Christ and those who have not.

63-Did you know that Rebekah, Isaac’s fiancé, proved to be adventurous and visited many different villages, fortified towns and walled cities as she journeyed throughout Canaan stopping at many well-known oasis' along the international trade route? People travelling in camel caravans usually met and travelled with military groups at wartime or merchants went together in numbers for the safety against marauding bandits. Courage helped her venture to an unknown foreign land.

     64-Did you know that A New Covenant Was Promised through many prophecies that let it be known of a New and Better Agreement?  The Old Covenant (Mosaic) was of Law, and was taken out of the way by The New Covenant with Christ of Grace (undeserved favour) and Spirit. The Mosaic Covenant put in place was never given so that by keeping it people would be saved from God‘s wrath against sin.

65-Did you know that It is not enough to hear and read Jesus' teachings, it is doing. It is not enough to profess to know Him, it is obeying? The issue of the parable of the two builders is to illustrate who has been a wise or foolish builder in their lifetime, by their response of obedience to the words of Christ.

66-Did you know that there were many women throughout the Bible who were childless? This allowed for God's intervention on their behalf and to protect the chosen lineage of His Covenant Promises by having the choice of both father and mother, which was opposite to the human-made culture of ascribing the importance of lineage only to the older male.

67-Did you know that when Jewish tax collectors who were employed by the Roman Empire, as well as many sinners gathered to hear Jesus, the Pharisees and Teachers of The Law muttered how He welcomed sinners and disapproved that He ate with them? They were ashamed to be associated with sinners, but Christ was not. Jesus associated with sinners because His purpose was and is to save the lost. The sinners who Jesus was with acknowledged He was their Lord and Saviour.

70-Did you know that Jesus wants people to deny selfishness, haughtiness, boasting and self-ego to seek humility and meekness, so that God can lift them up? Self efforts lead nowhere, yet by meekness, acknowledging God's Sovereignty a person is exalted by God for eternity with his sins forgiven. Jesus taught that the regretful sinner who sincerely seeks God's mercy will receive it. God exalts the humble, and all believers are to be humble before Him.

72-Did you know that because of a slave girl God rescued from an evil spirit of divination, she and a jailer’s household, entered into The Kingdom of God?

It is forbidden by God because it has disastrous consequences.
