About the Author of the Blogsite, Not the Author of the Bible:

About the Author of the Blogsite, Not the Author of the Bible: I was uncertain of how to accomplish this, mindful of Revelation 22:18-19, which says that nobody is to add to, or to take away from what was written in the Bible. After lots of prayerful contemplation, the Lord had it on my heart that I’m not to change the meaning of what is written in the Bible. He has also shown ways to add to people’s understating of that meaning, without altering the meaning, by putting that info within [brackets]. This is primarily accomplished with the KJV Bible and lots of prayers, but at times, BibleGateway.com, Biblehub.com, NIV Bible, Webster Dictionary, and other internet resources, as needed.

About Understanding the Bible:

Understanding the Bible: After reading Isaiah 28:10 many times over the years and not totally understanding it, it recently became apparent to me that the Lord God has this passage as the means for understanding the Bible. For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little. Isaiah 28:10 KJV. Being prayerful about this passage, and looking up 'precept' in the Webster's Dictionary, it gave this passage a whole new meaning, once 'commandment' is substituted for 'precept'. Within brackets are additional words the Lord had on my heart to aid in understanding the meaning. For commandment must be [built up] upon commandment; commandment upon commandment; line upon line, line upon line; [developing understanding] here a little, and there a little.

The Table Format:

The Table Format: I was overwhelmed with how to explain the process for determining if someone had leprosy in Leviticus 13, which seemed very complicated. After praying, "Lord, if this is difficult for me to understand after reading it many times, how can this be explained to others?" The thought the Lord God had on my heart was for me to put it into a vertical chart to visually see the process. This made it much easier for me to follow the progression. After doing so, I prayed, "Lord, how can this be conveyed to readers, so that they can understand this process?" The thought the Lord God had on my heart was to put it within the lines of a table. Being a stiff-necked, stubborn person, as it's often called in the Bible, I prayed, asking the Lord God if He's sure that's really what He wanted me to do? I reluctantly put Leviticus 13 into a table format. When I read this difficult leprosy process within a table format, it suddenly became easier for me to understand. That's because it builds line upon line, as explained in the Understanding the Bible section. Shortly after that, the Lord God had it on my heart, to put all of The Books of the Bible in Smaller Chunks within a table format, to aid in understanding, line upon line.

Isaiah 46:1-13 Their Idols Couldn't Save Them From Captivity

 

Their Idols Couldn't Save Them From Captivity

Isaiah 46:1-13                                The Book of Isaiah [in Smaller Chunks]

Their idols were upon the [animals] & upon the cattle. Bel bows down & Nebo stoops [over.] Your carriages were [loaded heavily.] They [were] a burden to the [tired animals.] They stoop  & they bow down together. 

They couldn't deliver the burden, but [they have] gone into captivity. [Pay attention] to Me, O house of Jacob & all [those remaining] of the house of Israel, [who] are [carried] from the womb & are borne by Me from the [stomach.] 

[Jeremiah 1:5 Before I formed you in the [stomach,] I knew you. And before you came forth out of the womb, I sanctified you & I [appointed] you, [as] a prophet to the nations.]

And even [until] your old age, I Am He, even [until you have gray] hair, I will carry you. I have made [you,] & I will bear [you] & I will even carry & deliver you. To whom will you [make] Me [similar] & make Me equal & compare Me, that we may be [alike?] 

They lavish gold out of the bag & weigh silver in the balance & hire a goldsmith & he makes it a god. [Yes,] they fall down & worship [it.] They [put] him upon [their] shoulders & carry him & put him in his place, [so he's] not [removed.] 

And [it] stands from [its] place & [someone] shall cry [out] to him, [but] he can't answer, nor save [himself] out of his trouble. Remember this & [show] yourselves [to be] men.  O you [sinners,] bring it to mind again. Remember the [previous] things of old: for I Am God & there is none else.

I Am God & there [are] none like Me, declaring the end, from the beginning & the things that [haven't happened] yet, from ancient times, saying, My [advice] shall stand & I will do all My pleasure. 

Calling the man from a [distant] country, a ravenous bird from the east, [who carries out] My [advice.] [Yes,] I have spoken it & I will also [make it happen.] I have [intended] it & I will also do it. [Pay attention] to Me, you stouthearted, [who] are far from righteousness. 

[Zechariah 7:11-12 But they refused to [pay attention] & pulled away [their shoulders] & stopped their ears, [so] that they [couldn't] hear. [Yes,] they made their hearts as [hard as] stone, lest they should hear the Law & the Words, [that] the Lord of Hosts has sent, [through] His Spirit by the former prophets. Therefore, great wrath [comes] from the Lord of Hosts.]

I bring My righteousness near. It shall not be far [away] & My Salvation shall not [delay.] And I will place Salvation in Zion for Israel, My glory. [2 Peter 3:9-10 The Lord isn't slack [about] His promise, [like] some men [consider] slackness; but is [patient] to us, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. 

*But the day of the Lord will come [like] a thief in the night; in which the heavens shall pass away with great noise & the elements shall melt with fervent heat & also the earth & the [things made] that are [in there,] shall be burned up.]
