Ecclesiastes 4: 9-16….Loneliness.

Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their toil. For if they fall, one will lift up his fellow. But woe to him who is alone when he falls and has not another to lift him up! Again, if two lie together, they keep warm, but how can one keepContinue reading “Ecclesiastes 4: 9-16….Loneliness.”

Ecclesiastes 4: 1-8….Is suicide the answer?

Again I saw all the oppressions that are done under the sun. And behold, the tears of the oppressed, and they had no one to comfort them!

And I thought the dead who are already dead more fortunateContinue reading “Ecclesiastes 4: 1-8….Is suicide the answer?”

1 Corinthians 7: 17-24….Called to Faithfulness

Only let each person lead the life that the Lord has assigned to him, and to which God has called him. This is my rule in all the churches. Was anyone at the time of his call already circumcised?

Ecclesiastes 2: 12-17….Come chose, I did.

Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God?

And such were some of you.Continue reading “1 Corinthians 6: 9-11….An unpopular passage!”

1 Corinthians 6: 1-8….Is this practical?

When one of you has a grievance against another, does he dare go to law before the unrighteous instead of the saints? Or do you not know that the saints will judge the world? And if the world is to be judged by you, are you incompetent to try trivial cases? Do you not knowContinue reading “1 Corinthians 6: 1-8….Is this practical?”
