ISAIAH 8: 13-18
The LORD Almighty is the one you are to regard as holy, he is the one you are to fear, he is the one you are to dread. He will be a holy place; for both Israel and Judah he will be a stone that causes people to stumble and a rock that makes them fall. And for the people of Jerusalem he will be a trap and a snare. Many of them will stumble; they will fall and be broken, they will be snared and captured.”Bind up this testimony of warning and seal up God’s instruction among my disciples. I will wait for the LORD, who is hiding his face from the descendants of Jacob. I will put my trust in him.
PHILIPPIANS 2:8-11
Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name,that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth,and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Yahweh, to the glory of God the Father.
What a beautiful bible study….thank you.
Rock on General, Dr. Jim! Too bad we were not younger, we both could fight with the IDF or SDF (as the rockets reign on dear Israel, and even in the Holy Land and Jerusalem)… (I am a retired RMC Capt. recon and intell.) Great Text Romans 9: 33, “Behold, I lay in Zion a Stone of Stumbling and Rock of Offense, And He who believes in HIM will not be disappointed.” Note, this also in 1 Peter 2: 4-8… these “stumble because they are disobedient to the word, and to this doom they were appointed.” (Verse 8) Thank God also for 1 Peter 2: 9-10!
Sweet is Isa. 8: 13-18 here, we who believe are bound to Yahweh/Jehovah-Jesus! (Jew & Gentile)
