I am so much less educated and trained in the great theology of the Word as you all are, but yet, these words are a source of stirring in my heart. Oh, that we would leave off our desire for human accolades and strive instead to be known as shakers of Hell itself: "Jesus I know, and Paul I know", but who are WE? Pray with and for me that God would again visit His people with the outstretching of His hand in power.<BR/><BR/>http://www.prayforrevival.blogspot.comSFBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15754910013380395163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21212024.post-1150808862195201612006-06-20T06:07:00.000-07:002006-06-20T06:07:00.000-07:00"Wait until you get to Hebrew, and "hollow" verbs!...<I>"Wait until you get to Hebrew, and "hollow" verbs!"</I><BR/><BR/>Hebrew?

He's got that fire in his belly.<BR/><BR/>Do you think this passion for the truth is a byproduct of the Cross?<BR/><BR/>And yet we do need to fan this fire I would think.<BR/><BR/>Those who have not come to the Cross will never love the Word, nor have a passion for the truth.<BR/>"Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be."

I feel the same way. And at the end of the day, we're told, "Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness."<BR/><BR/>I can think of no better hobby than deeply studying the word of God that my heart and mind might be more conformed to that of Christ. I consider it the highest form of personal worship.<BR/><BR/>But what can I say? I'm often viewed as a nut.<BR/><BR/>-MikeMike Yhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14897602903962464086noreply@blogger.com
