The Sacred Scriptures
Q: By what name did Jesus refer to the sacred writings of the Old Testament, the Bible of His day?A: "Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the Scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the of the corner?" Matthew 21:42
Q: What title is given the revelation of God to man?
A: "And he answered and said unto them, My mother and my brethren are these which hear the word of God, and do it.
Note: It is interesting to note that the word Bible does not occur in the Bible itself. It is derived from the Latin biblia, which came from the Greek biblos, meaning "book." The Greek word byblos, meaning papyrus, the name of the material upon which the ancient books were written. The Greeks called this writing material bublos because they obtained it from the Phoenician port of Byblos.
The Bible has 66 and was written by 35 or 40 men over a period of some fifteen hundred years. The books are cakked the "Word of God," or the "Scriptures." Scriptures means writings.
This weekend...
we went to our wonderful little church in Belcher, Kentucky. The children all played Christmas hymns on the Piano for our "Christmas Program." I was so proud of all of the children and as always it was so nice to see everyone.After potluck, our family headed for Bristol, Virginia (about 93 miles from Belcher - we got one of those new GPS gadgets!) to our Uncle Tommy and Aunt Effie. Since we had the new GPS thing, my husband took us on a new route, which I always love doing. I just enjoy seeing new places!
I love living here in the Appalachian Mountains. One of things I so love about this area are the names - Like Happy, Kentucky and Oven Fork, Kentucky, and Bad Branch Falls, Kentucky. We passed Frying Pan Road along the way over on the Virginia side which was why I even brought this up.
I was blessed to see a Blue Heron on a log in the river. My sweet husband indulged me and turned the car around so I could get a photo. Unfortunately the Blue Heron always eludes me and was gone by the time we turned the car around.
I saw another one flying over the river along side the car a short time later. I grabbed my camera out of my lap and tried to get the window down to get a photo and was not fast enough. I have yet to get a photo despite having seen them several times. (I am trying to get photos of every bird I have seen in person.)
As I stared at the river as we drove looking for another Heron, my husband hit the breaks and says, "You missed the hundred dollar bill looking for the diamond!"
I had no clue what he was talking about as he turned the car around. A moment later he pulled into someone's driveway. Chickens! Pretty Hens. Isn't he sweet?
Oh, I can't wait to share more with you about Aunt Effie, but that is another post!
Before heading home we stopped at the new Earth's Fare in Johnson City, TN. I love this store. I am so glad they came to town! And I was so excited to find Mary Jane's Farm magazine gracing their shelves. Mykal, who spent the whole day sweetly indulging me, bought me my first copy! I had never seen it in person and can't wait to find a few quiet moments this week to sit down and read.
It was a nice day. We didn't get home until late, but the drive was worth it and the lovely people we were able to share the day with made it really special.
