Three Minute Bible will return on Monday — Lord willing! 🙂
Happy 4th of July!
Luke 1:37 – Merry Christmas, Part 1
For no word from God will ever fail.
Summary: In this meditation, we look back on why Jesus had to become a man and what it means for us.
The Gospel accounts of Matthew, Mark, and John are all written from the perspective of a first or second-hand account of Jesus’ life on earth by people who knew him. Luke’s Gospel is different.

Colossians 2:6 – Jesus as Lord
So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live your lives in him …
Summary: Accepting Jesus as Lord is important, but Paul challenges us to think about our relationship with Jesus and what it means for our lives.
I love the way Paul writes! His words sound simple and pleasing to the ear, yet when we look at them in detail, there is a vast expanse of meaning behind them.
Take today’s passage, for example:
“So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live your lives in him …” (Colossians 2:6)

What does that mean?

… and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven,
Summary: Harmony is a beautiful thing. Disharmony is … well … painful. Jesus is the cure for the pain of disharmony.

Galatians 5:20d – The Acts of the Flesh Part V: Rage & Ambition
The acts of the flesh are obvious: … fits of rage, selfish ambition …
Summary: Rage and ambition are a toxic emotional brew. They bring nothing but hurt to those around us when we fall victim to the passions of our own flesh.

In today’s post, “Satan’s Sights,” I made a statement that could be misread to mean something I did not intend, nor do I endorse in any way. Satan has not succeeded in his goal to separate us from God. He has succeeded partially, but not completely. To that end I made the following correction to the second paragraph. The correction is in italics and underlined below.

Then God blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on it he rested from all the work of creating that he had done.
Three Minute Bible has, with a few exceptions, been published seven days a week for about five years now. Times are changing, and so is our mission. As of today, we will be going to a six-day-a-week format.
Thank you for being part of this Bible study! I hope it has blessed you.
