Hello Sister Eva,

Thanks! - I appreciate the update. I've been gone some also because of my back, but I think things are looking better.  Let's pray for one another, get everyone well, and have some fun. Please tell Sister Michelle that everyone is still in our prayers.

Love In Christ,
Tom

Brother Tom:

I have been praying that God will restore your back.  I think I saw it on another thread. 

Your posts here are such a wonderful addition to me.  My life has been marred with trials and tribulations this month and your comments have given me reassurance and hope

Thank you for all you do here!!!

Love in Christ, Eva

Who was told by an angel that the angel's name was a secret?
(Daniel, Judges, Revelation)

These are such FUN!!! Manoah

Judges 13:16  And the angel of the LORD said unto Manoah, Though thou detain me, I will not eat of thy bread: and if thou wilt offer a burnt offering, thou must offer it unto the LORD. For Manoah knew not that he was an angel of the LORD. And Manoah said unto the angel of the LORD, What is thy name, that when thy sayings come to pass we may do thee honor? And the angel of the LORD said unto him, Why askest thou thus after my name, seeing it is secret?

Love in Christ, Eva

Will pray not only for Martin and Kimberly, but for your entire family.  I know that both of these situations cause heartache for the entire family.

God Bless!!!

Love in Christ, Eva

For all of you who have been praying for Zaccy, TiderLily extends her deepest gratitude.

He is missing school today, which makes 4 days total.  The good news is that his condition has been downgraded to a cold as the fever and everything else have subsided.  So, he should return to school tomorrow.

TigerLily really misses everyone and will hopefully be able to join us tomorrow or Wednesday.

God Bless you all who have prayed and may your prayers be returned to you 100 fold.

Love in Christ, Eva

Alright. You got the right verses, sister but I wouldn't call it a stoning. She was thrown out of a window to the ground below and then was stomped on by horses. The window must have been fairly high up because her landing caused her blood to splatter quite a bit.

Thank you for pointing out my error. It should have said: A terrible death, as a type of stoning-like when they would throw them from high places and throw stones down on them. Am I making any sense?

Love in Christ Eva

What wealthy woman had a son that died of sunstroke?
(Judges, Joshua, 2 Kings)

Although sunstroke isn't mentioned outright, it could be:

2 Kings 4:17-20  And the woman conceived, and bore a son at that season that Elisha had said unto her, according to the time of life.  And when the child was grown, it fell on a day, that he went out to his father to the reapers.
And he said unto his father, My head, my head. And he said to a lad, Carry him to his mother.  And when he had taken him, and brought him to his mother, he sat on her knees till noon, and then died.
 
Thank you for another opportunity to learn.

Love in Christ, Eva

Good Question:

Disclaimer: I do not care for sports...

Scripturally speaking, the incident between the families who were fighting would fall under Ephesians 4:26  Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath.

The Bible also tells us things to set our minds on:

Philippians 4:8  Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.

On a personal note it all goes back to intent:

Football could be OK as the object of the game is to score a goal, not beat each other up- as in Boxing and other violent sports.

Love in Christ, Eva

Speaking on Jezebel, did you hear that archaeologists have uncovered a seal that belonged to Jezebel. Just another one of many things that corroborate the Bible.

A few more questions on Jezebel.

How did she die and who predicted this manner of death?

Where do we see mention of Jezebel besides in 2 Kings?

She died by a type of stoning:

2 Kings 9:33  And he said, Throw her down. So they threw her down: and some of her blood was sprinkled on the wall, and on the horses: and he trod her under foot.

Elijah predicted her death:

1 Kings 21:23  And of Jezebel also spoke the LORD, saying, The dogs shall eat Jezebel by the wall of Jezreel.

She is also mentioned in Revelations:

Revelations 2:20  Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols.

Thanks for the challenge.  I just love these.

Love in Christ, Eva

1Kings 18:4  For it was so, when Jezebel cut off the prophets of the LORD... Hope this mean she had them put to death?

GrammyLuv and PR, you are both so knowledgeable about God's Word.  You both offer challenging questions, which cause me to seek out the correct answer.

Many Thanks, as we know God's Word never comes back void, even when we are having fun playing Bible Trivia.

God Bless you both.

Love in Christ, Eva

OOPS! Forgot 1Kings 18:13  Was it not told my lord what I did when Jezebel slew the prophets of the LORD, how I hid a hundred men of the LORD's prophets by fifty in a cave, and fed them with bread and water?

What queen of Israel ordered the extermination of the prophets of the Lord?
(1 Samuel, 1 Kings, 1 Chronicles)

1Kings 18:4  For it was so, when Jezebel cut off the prophets of the LORD... Hope this mean she had them put to death?

How about...

Genesis 10:25  And unto Eber were born two sons: the name of one was Peleg; for in his days was the earth divided; and his brother's name was Joktan.

Love in Christ, Eva

I may have the other one:

Numbers 16:30-32  But if the LORD make a new thing, and the earth open her mouth, and swallow them up, with all that appertain unto them, and they go down quick into the pit; then ye shall understand that these men have provoked the LORD. And it came to pass, as he had made an end of speaking all these words, that the ground cleaved asunder that was under them: And the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up, and their houses, and all the men that appertained unto Korah, and all their goods.
 
Love in Christ, Eva

This one involves two questions.  Remember your verses! 

1)  How many times does Eve's name appear in Genesis?
  2)  How many times does Eve's name appear in the New Testament?

Two times in Genesis:

Genesis 3:20  And Adam called his wife's name Eve; because she was the mother of all living.

Genesis 4:1  And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bore Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the LORD. 

Two times in the New Testament:

1Timothy 2:13  For Adam was first formed, then Eve.

2 Corinthians 11:3  But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtlety, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.

Love in Christ, Eva

Michelle:

I certainly will keep you and Zaccy in my prayers for total and compete healing as He is the Great Physician.

I will also pray for sleep for you both.  Nothing like having a sick child.

We have missed you too.

Love in Christ, Eva
