I can't place a direct verse right now (I'm reading through the old testament and there's a lot in there, haha). Anyway, how about a favorite Bible story?!?!? I love the story of Samson. I remember it from a kid but only the main part. Actually re-reading through it and knowing how it all happened is amazing and only something like that could have actually of happened!!! People who refuse to believe the bible to be real are completely ignoring what's real life!!!

Romans 8: KJV



God�s Everlasting Love



31 What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? 32 He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things? 33 Who shall bring a charge against God�s elect? It is God who justifies. 34 Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, and furthermore is also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us. 35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? 36 As it is written:





� For Your sake we are killed all day long;

We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.�[c]



37 Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. 38 For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, 39 nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

For shear beauty, my favorite is Ezekiel 16:4 As for your nativity, on the day you were born your navel cord was not cut, nor were you washed in water to cleanse you; you were not rubbed with salt nor wrapped in swaddling cloths. 5 No eye pitied you, to do any of these things for you, to have compassion on you; but you were thrown out into the open field, when you yourself were loathed on the day you were born. 6 "And when I passed by you and saw you struggling in your own blood, I said to you in your blood, 'Live!' Yes, I said to you in your blood, 'Live!' 7 I made you thrive like a plant in the field; and you grew, matured, and became very beautiful. Your br**sts were formed, your hair grew, but you were naked and bare. 8 When I passed by you again and looked upon you, indeed your time was the time of love; so I spread My wing over you and covered your nakedness. Yes, I swore an oath to you and entered into a covenant with you, and you became Mine," says the Lord God. 9 Then I washed you in water; yes, I thoroughly washed off your blood, and I anointed you with oil. 10 I clothed you in embroidered cloth and gave you sandals of badger skin; I clothed you with fine linen and covered you with silk. 11 I adorned you with ornaments, put bracelets on your wrists, and a chain on your neck. 12 And I put a jewel in your nose, earrings in your ears, and a beautiful crown on your head. 13 Thus you were adorned with gold and silver, and your clothing was of fine linen, silk, and embroidered cloth. You ate pastry of fine flour, honey, and oil. You were exceedingly beautiful, and succeeded to royalty. 14 Your fame went out among the nations because of your beauty, for it was perfect through My splendor which I had bestowed on you," says the Lord God

Hi Stormcontry:



I think a thread about "your favorite Bible story" is a great idea! Why dont you start one as I would be interested in knowing why the story of Samson is your favorite?

Well... my favorite verse changes on a day by day or week by week basis, so that's REALLY hard to say. lol. My favorite story, though, is... okay, my TWO favorite stories are...



-Gideon and his army

My favorite thing about this story is the faith of this man. "Hey, Gideon... get rid of almost your whole army." "Ok." Victory. Done.

and

-Jesus walking on water

I like this story because we see Peter, the rock on which the church was supposed to be built, step out onto the water with Jesus. He actually steps ONTO the water, even IF it was only for just one second. Then... Peter, an amazing disciple of Jesus Christ, doubts, and starts sinking. Jesus reaches down, and pulls him back up. Another man of extreme faith... who messes up just like the rest of us. Amazing story.

Great topic. Thanks.



In Christ
