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.

Being Examples as the Lord God's Ministers

2 Corinthians 6:1-18   Paul's 2nd Epistle to the Corinthians [in Smaller Chunks] 

Then, we as workers together with [God,] also [urge] you not [to] receive [God's] grace in vain. *(For [God says,] I have heard you in [an] accepted time, & [on] the Day of Salvation, I have [helped] you. [Look,] now is the accepted time. [See,] now is the Day of Salvation.)

[Give] no offence, [a.k.a. Don't offend,] in anything, [so] that the ministry [isn't] blamed. [Colossians 2:16 Therefore, let no man judge you [about your:] meat, [a.k.a. food;] drink; respect of [a:] Holy-day; New Moon; or the Sabbath Days.] 

But [proving, a.k.a. demonstrating,] ourselves as ministers of God, [through:] much patience; in afflictions; in [lack of] necessities; in [distress;] in stripes, [a.k.a. whip marks;] in imprisonments; in tumults, [a.k.a. turmoil;] in [heavy] [labor, a.k.a. work;] in [watchings, a.k.a. being guarded through the night;] in [fasting;]

By [means of:] pureness; knowledge; long suffering, [a.k.a. endurance;] kindness; [through] the Holy Ghost, [a.k.a. Holy Spirit,] [with sincere] love; [through:] the Word of Truth; the power of God; & the [armor] of righteousness on the right hand [side] & on the left;

[Through] [both:] [honor & dishonor;] evil, [a.k.a. bad reports] & good [reports;] [like] deceivers, & [still] true; [like] unknown, & [still] well known; [like] dying, & [see,] we live; [like chastised; but] not killed; [like] sorrowful, [still always] rejoicing; [like] poor, [still] making many rich; [like] having nothing, & [still] possessing all things. 

[2 Corinthians 8:9 For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, [Who] though He was rich, He [still] became poor for your sakes, [so] that you might [become] rich through His poverty.] 

O you, Corinthians, our mouth [has freely spoken] to you, & our heart is enlarged. You are not straitened, [a.k.a. restricted by] us, but [your hearts] are [restricted by] your own bowels. 

Now, [this is the] [repayment] for the same [type of actions.] (I speak [to you] [like] to my children,) [so] you also [have growth.] [Don't] you be unequally yoked, [a.k.a. joined,] together with unbelievers. For what fellowship [do the] [righteous have] with the [unrighteous?] 

And what [communication of mutual thoughts] [do those who have:] Light [have] with darkness? [John 3:17-20 For God [didn't send] His Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world might be saved through Him. He, [who believes in] Him is not condemned. But he [who doesn't believe] is already condemned, because he [hasn't] believed in the Name of the only begotten Son of God. And this is the condemnation, that Light [has] come into the world, & men loved darkness rather than Light, because their deeds were evil. For everyone [who does] evil [hates] the Light, & neither [comes] to the Light, lest his deeds should be reproved, [a.k.a. disapproved.]

And what [agreement] [does] Christ [have with] Belial, [a.k.a. wickedness?] Or what part, [a.k.a. portion,] [does] he [who believes have] with an infidel, [a.k.a. unbeliever?]  And what agreement, [a.k.a. like-mindedness,] [does] [God's] temple [have] with idols? For you are the temple of the Living God.

[Like] God [has] said, I will dwell [within] them, I walk [within] them. And I will be their God, & they shall be My people. [Revelation 21:3-5 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, [Look,] the tabernacle of God is with men. And He will dwell with them, & they shall be His people. And God, Himself, shall be with them, & be their God. *And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes. And there shall no [longer] be death, neither sorrow, nor crying. Neither shall there be any more pain. For the [previous] things [have] passed away. And He, [Who] sat on the throne said, [See,] I make all things new. And He said to me, [a.k.a. the Apostle John,] Write: for these Words are true & faithful.] 

[For this reason,] come out, [a.k.a. away,] from among them, & you be separate, [says] the Lord. And [don't] touch the unclean [things;] & I will receive you. [Isaiah 52:11 You depart. You depart & go out from [there,] & [don't] touch [any] unclean thing. You go out of the midst of her, & be clean, you [who carry] the vessels of the Lord.]

And [I] will be a Father to you, & you shall be My sons & daughters, [says] the Lord Almighty.
