When the Lord our God is not that angry

Ezekiel 4:14-15 [14] Then I said, “Not so, Sovereign Lord! I have never defiled myself. From my youth until now I have never eaten anything found dead or torn by wild animals. No impure meat has ever entered my mouth.” [15] “Very well,” he said, “I will let you bake your bread over cow dung instead of human excrement.” ---------------------------------- God bless and best regards, Bro. Rontabs

On Sorrow

Ecclesiastes 7:3  ( Old Testament ) [3] Frustration is better than laughter,     because a sad face is good for the heart. ---------------------------------- James 4:9-10  ( New Testament ) [9] Grieve, mourn and wail. Change your laughter to mourning and your joy to gloom. [10] Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up. ---------------------------------- God bless and best regards, Bro. Rontabs

The Sword of the Lord

Isaiah 66:15-16 [15] See, the Lord is coming with fire,     and his chariots are like a whirlwind; he will bring down his anger with fury,     and his rebuke with flames of fire. [16] For with fire and with his sword     the Lord will execute judgment on all people,     and many will be those slain by the Lord. --------------------------------------------- God bless and best regards, Bro. Rontabs

When to Keep Quiet

Amos 5:12-13 [12] For I know how many are your offenses     and how great your sins. There are those who oppress the innocent and take bribes     and deprive the poor of justice in the courts. [13] Therefore the prudent keep quiet in such times,     for the times are evil. ----------------------------- God bless and best regards, Bro. Rontabs

The Relationship Between the Rich and the Poor

Proverbs 22:7 [7] The rich rule over the poor,     and the borrower is slave to the lender. -------------------------------------------------- Luke 11:41 [41] But now as for what is inside you—be generous to the poor, and everything will be clean for you. -------------------------------------------------- God bless and best regards, Bro. Rontabs

The Forgiven

2 Corinthians 2:10-11 [10] Anyone you forgive, I also forgive. And what I have forgiven—if there was anything to forgive—I have forgiven in the sight of Christ for your sake, [11] in order that Satan might not outwit us. For we are not unaware of his schemes. -------------------------------- God bless and best regards, Bro. Rontabs

What the Lord our God loves and what He grants to those He love

What God loves - 2 Corinthians 9:7 [7] Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. What God grants when He loves you - Psalm 127:1-2 [1] Unless the Lord builds the house,     the builders labor in vain. Unless the Lord watches over the city,     the guards stand watch in vain. [2] In vain you rise early     and stay up late, toiling for food to eat—     for he grants sleep to those he loves. ----------------------------------------------- God bless and best regards, Bro. Rontabs

Bound by Disobedience

Romans 11:30-32 [30] Just as you who were at one time disobedient to God have now received mercy as a result of their disobedience, [31] so they too have now become disobedient in order that they too may now receive mercy as a result of God’s mercy to you. [32] For God has bound everyone over to disobedience so that he may have mercy on them all. ------------------------------------ God bless and best regards, Bro. Rontabs

The Relationship Between Humans and Angels

1 Corinthians 6:2-3 [2] Or do you not know that the Lord’s people will judge the world? And if you are to judge the world, are you not competent to judge trivial cases? [3] Do you not know that we will judge angels? How much more the things of this life! -------------------------------------- God bless and best regards, Bro. Rontabs
