Sharing the Gospel, Strengthening Believers
Through clear Bible teaching and the message of Jesus Christ, we seek to reach the lost and help believers grow strong in their faith.
A simple look at Jeremiah 31:9
Now look at Jeremiah 31:9. I was reading it in the CSB and I came across a word that is not in my usual NKJV. The word is wadis. So I went to the Blue Letter Bible, and I looked at the Hebrew, and I compared a few other translations. What I found is a beautiful picture of God as a Father, leading His people home.
A simple look at Job 39, the Hebrew word re’em, and the so-called Siberian unicorn.
For readers who want to be Bible Strong.
Open the King James Bible and you will find the word unicorn. It turns up in Job. It turns up in the Psalms. It is there in Numbers and Deuteronomy as well.
Friends, something you might not know about me: I have dyslexia and dyspraxia, and for years I worked as a painter and decorator. Up a ladder, I could paint to the left or the right of the cutters and fascia boards. Indoors I could handle a cornice with either hand. I write with my left hand and throw or hit with my right. In Scotland they call that kind of mixed skill “kippy-handed.” It is not the usual pattern, but it made me useful on the job. I could keep working without climbing down and switching sides every few minutes.

Folks, after Storm Boelo the River Leven carried a lot of debris onto the shores around Dumbarton. Among all that wreckage were a striking number of empty Buckfast bottles. A friend who ran along the water noticed them and asked, almost in disbelief, how many bottles a river can wash up if they start further upstream or come in on the tide. The sight is hard to miss. Levengrove Park, the streets of Dumbarton, Renton and Balloch all tell the same story: people drinking in the open, bottles thrown into the water, lives being worn down by something cheap and hard-hitting.
