Scripture Of The Day
That they all may be one; as thou, Father, [art] in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. Luke 17:21.Read The Bible In a Year
Proverbs 6-7; 2 Corinthians 2.Thoughts For The Day
No matter the consequences, those who are honest with themselves get farther in life.Two people can look at the exact same thing and see something totally different.
When one door of life closes, another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one that has been opened for us

Personal Story Of The Day
The Best Seller Ever
The Bible is a remarkable book. Millions of copies are bought each year. It has been the number one best seller for decades. Bible apps are one of the most downloaded pieces of software for phones and tablets. But tragically, the Bible is said to be the least read best seller of all time.
The apostle Paul taught that the Scriptures are given to us by God and are capable of bringing about transformation in those who take it seriously (2Timothy 3:16).
The Scriptures were not given to merely increase our knowledge, but to change our lives." So why do we often neglect this source of transforming power? If I were the devil, one of my first aims would be to hinder people from reading their Bible. Do you use your Bible every day until it eventually falls apart?
Here's why: God wants to speak to us through the Bible... it leads to spiritual revelations and understandings. Through it He warns us about the dangers of sin and provides us with nourishing spiritual food.
Don't neglect your Bible. If you do, you will neglect your own spiritual health.
Jokes Of The Day
A guy goes into a restaurant and lounge, his shirt open at the collar, but is stopped by a bouncer who tells him he must wear a necktie to get in.So the guy goes out to his car and he looks around for a tie and discovers that he just doesn't have one. He sees a set of jumper cables in his trunk. In desperation he ties these around his neck, manages to fashion a fairly acceptable looking knot and lets the ends dangle free.
He goes back to the restaurant and the bouncer suspiciously looks him over for a few moments and then says, "Well, OK, I guess you can come in - just don't start anything."

The young couple invited their aged parson for Sunday dinner.
While they were in the kitchen preparing the meal, the minister asked their son what they were having.
"Goat," the little boy replied.
"Goat?" replied the startled man of the cloth, "Are you sure about that?"
"Yep," said the youngster. "I heard Pa say to Ma, 'Might aswell have the old goat for dinner today as any other day.'"

Riddle Of The Day
Be you ever so quick, with vision keen, by your eyes, we are never seen. Unless perchance it should come to pass, you see our reflection in a looking glass. What are we?Answer to Yesterday's Riddle
You use it between your head and your toes, the more it works the thinner it grows. What is it?
A bar of soap.
Devotional Thoughts Of The Day
He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay. Matthew28:6. References from Mark 16:1-19.
Mark's Gospel concludes with a textual difficulty for some. Many scholars believe that verses 9 through 19 were not written by Mark because they do not appear in some of the oldest Greek manuscripts (more likely, they didn't like the conclusive evidence revealed within them). Various explanations have been given for their supposed addition. Some have suggested that they were compiled by someone else after Mark's death prevented him from finishing the Gospel.
Others believe verses 9 through 19 reflect an independent tradition, perhaps used for bible study purposes, that someone else later attached to Mark's Gospel. However, the events described in the last eighteen verses are consistent with material found elsewhere in Scripture.
Christ's appearance to Mary Magdalene is described by John.
Jesus' appearance to the two disciples on the road to Emmaus is recounted by Luke.
Matthew records the Great Commission,
and in the book of Acts, Luke records the first instances of speaking in tongues, laying on of hands, and Christ's ascension.
Despite the criticism that these verses may not have been originally written by Mark, there is nothing unscriptural about what they include. Alternatively, the denial of the last verses of Mark, is a denial of the true gospel and a denial of the power of the Holy Ghost. Every word that Christ spoke was fulfilled.
From the day of Pentecost when the Holy Spirit was first poured out, till this present time... true believers have been filled with the power of the Holy Spirit, with the Jesus-declared sign of speaking in tongues. Mark knew what he was writing... do you?
The End Is Certainly Coming
The prophets prophesy falsely, and the priests rule by their own power; and My people love to have it so. But what will you do in the end? Jeremiah 5:31.
Everything that begins also ends. Beautiful buildings are erected, but eventually they are torn down. Seeds sprout and grow into plants, but after their season they, too, come to an end. Even the universe, as we now know it, will some day be destroyed (Rev 21:1). It is only reasonable, then, that as we begin something we must keep in mind that it eventually will come to an end... and then what? That was God's warning to Israel.
They were being misled by those who were responsible for their spiritual welfare. The prophets and priests were telling the people only what they wanted to hear, which was fine with them. They didn't want to be confronted with their sins. They loved the sugar-coated messages and false assurances. But God inquired, "What will you do in the end?" What will you do when reality knocks on the door and you no longer can continue to deny the truth?
Everything that begins has an end... and then what will you do? As you live your life, don't forget that one day it, too, will end. All those things that are built upon the lies of the world are only wood, hay and straw, and they will be burned up (1Cor 3:12-15).
In the end, only what you have done for Christ will last. As you go through your day, evaluate what you do in light of the end you know is coming. When you stand before the Judgment Seat of Christ, will the things you've given your life to really matter? Commit yourself to do that which is of eternal value. The end is coming... and then what will you do?
