After studying the Bible for many years without and with the aid of Bible software I arrived at certain conclusions that I will elaborate on below. For now I will focus on the question at hand and that is what religion was, or is JOB? The Book of JOB in the Bible never mentions any religion or religious laws. It tends to be more mysterious and spiritually oriented.Before arriving at any steadfast conclusions about JOB's character when it comes to religious or spiritual matters it is important ...

Babylon is in the Bible some 294 times. Eleven of those times are in
the New Testament, six of which are in the Book of Revelation. There is
much ancient history connected to the word Babylon in the Old Testament
but then it is mentioned in the Book of Matthew, Acts, 1 Peter, and
Revelation. In 1 Peter the verse states 'the church that is at
Babylon'... Was there a church at Babylon at that time or was the
author of 1 Peter referring to something else?1 PETER 5,13 - From the King James ...

The verse I am referring to is Job 36,24 from the Old Testament. If you are a student of the Bible you probably already know that Job was written 1000 to 1500 years before the Book of Genesis. Job is a profound and deeply mysterious book. It is highly scientific and riddled with mysteries. The Book of Job has an all-star cast of characters including the Almighty, 4 or 5 of the Old Testament names of God, the LORD and Satan. So, who is Job that he magnifies God? The verse is shown below along ...

Well, here is another Bible verse that you won't hear many sermons about in church. It is difficult to fathom as the whole entire Book of Job is. The verse I am referring to is Job 2:2 and 2:3.
Job 2,2-3
2 And the LORD said unto Satan, From whence comest thou? And Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it. 3 And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect ...

Does God really care?I think that most people have asked this question. After all, look at the things that go on in this world. Senseless injustice, people without ethics or scruples running governments, religious wars where groups literally try to kill each other and wrongfully claim that they are doing it for God.
The Bible scripture below has a powerful message that is scientific and manifold in nature. Ecclesiastes 5,8 - King James Version Bible

The Book of Job is a mystery unto itself. Without a doubt it is one
of the most profound, scientific and deeply troubling books of the
entire Bible. Here this great man (the greatest in all the East =
Eternity) that endured suffering and persecution beyond human
comprehension. Who did it? According to the Bible it was the LORD and
Satan. Is there some great and noble reason why they inflicted so much
evil on Job? That is yet to be seen, but perhaps Job 19,26 will shed
some ...

Which Bible God Did Jesus Call Out To From the Cross? Is it important to know? It was for me once I realized that there were many different Gods in the Old Testament. Some only appear a few times and others 2500 times. So which God (according to the book) did Jesus cry out (in Aramaic) to from the cross?Matthew 27,46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?Here is the answer. The word ...

While the Bible is a mystery from cover to cover the Book of Job is not just mysterious, it is by far and away the most scientific book of the entire Bible. In Job 19,35-36 Job asks for the Almighty to answer him and then goes on to speak of a book written by His adversary. A book that He would wear as a crown... What book is Job referring to? Job 31,35
Oh that one would hear me! behold, my desire is, that the Almighty would answer me, and that mine adversary had written a book. Job 31,36 ...

There are only a limited number of Bible verses that use the words "seen God" in the text. Two of the verses are from the Old Testament and three from the New. If you find the verses to be contradictory it is probably because they are. Genesis 32,30And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for
I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved.Judges 13,22And Manoah said unto his wife, We shall surely die,
because we have seen God John 1,18No man hath seen God at any time; the only ...

The Bible is full of mysteries and Lucifer is certainly one of them. One of the mysteries about great Bible heroes and some of the ones said to be enemies of the LORD are their actions. Many of the ones said to be enemies didn't do too much wrong and some of those lifted up in the Bible did awful things at the instruction of the LORD (according to the book that is). They murdered in cold blood people who had done nothing wrong other than the LORD didn't like them. This can't be accurate can it? ...

ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the
spirit: for the letter killleth but the spirit giveth
life.Translation from the King James Bible 2 Corinthians

This Bible verse is one that
would cause great controversy with many teachers of religion.
What is the true message here? Are we being told here that
belief in words on the pages of a book not will not only fail
to bring life but may even kill the spirit ...

This famous verse is from the New Testament; Matthew 19,26
"But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them,
With men this is impossible; but with God all things are
possible" (King James Bible). Every scripture can trigger different thoughts and questions from reader to reader. Sometimes it seems that we are a point in history when we truly need the God of the Unlimited Possibilities... The God that makes all things possible!That is the ONLY God that I choose to believe in.There are many ...

The spiritual path is the high road because it takes courage and
self-honesty to follow. Although we may hear or read things that
provide insight or inspiration along the way it can be a lonely road.
The Supreme Spirit is God, Creator and many other names that people and
books have used to describe the indescribable. The spiritual
path is one of our spirit communicating with the energy and force of
creation. Many times we are choosing to follow the divine leading of the
spirit instead of ...

Why Do We Need A New Testament?
Have you ever wondered why there is a New and an Old
Testament? Was there something wrong with the Old Testament?
The answers may seem complex and difficult to understand but I
will share my views; views that are based on extensive research
and considerable revelation. Please remember one important
thing about the Bible. The book is almost as mysterious as God,
the LORD and the Almighty.

The Old Testament books are ...
