This is a Bible study tool designed to take us through the entire Bible in 2 years. Six days a week (Monday through Saturday) there will be a post telling you what the assigned readings are. Some days there will also be comments from me. These are intended to provide material for devotional meditation and practical application. Please feel welcome to post questions or comments so that we can encourage each other. May God bless our study!
Wow! What a stark contrast in readings. In Songs we see the pure joy between Solomon and his wife. Solomon who put his faith and trust in the one true God is rewarded richly with peace and bliss. Not so much for the Babylonians and Chaldeans! They did NOT put their faith and trust in the one true God. There was no peace and bliss for them. Only terror and punishment. We are not promised peace and bliss on a daily basis. But through our Baptism (Death with Christ and Resurrection with Christ) we have been promised an eternal peace and bliss that will pass all understanding. Praise be to God the Father who created us, God the Son who redeemed us, and God the Holy Spirit who daily sanctifies us!
