Hello Marilyn, I commend you for speaking out on your beliefs. However, I am curious, where in the New Testament do you find that Sunday is the day chosen by the devil to worship. If we set a day aside to rest from our work and to worship God, is that not honoring the principle that God put into place in Genesis? Whether that be Saturday, Sunday, or another day of the week? Was not Jesus resurrected to life on a Sunday? What day did the early Christian church worship on? I would appreciate hearing your input and I look forward to your response!
Happy Preparation Day, friends! As you get ready to observe the Sabbath, surrender your hearts and plans to the Lord so that you can receive the full blessing of His presence. Where possible, keep your first true Sabbath by attending an SDA church near you. Just put Seventh Day Adventist Church in your Google App search bar (for example) to find a church near you. We always meet on Saturday morning (the seventh day). See Genesis 2:1-3. Sometime, let us know on here about how your experience went. God bless you as you consider keeping holy the day God chose for us to worship Him. Sunday is the counterfeit day of worship chosen by the Devil himself. I am sharing this with you because I do not want the wrath of God to fall upon you. Come out of modern day Babylon and turn away from Sunday keeping. In the end, keeping it will destroy your souls.
π€ Happy Thanksgiving everyone! May the Spirit of God dwell in your hearts from this time forth and forevermore. Maranatha! πππβ€
How are your Thanksgiving preparations going, everyone? It is hard to believe that it is almost Thanksgiving already. This year has gone by so quickly! We will be having a nice get-together with friends at their house. Besides eating a nice meal, we will be playing games and enjoy fellowshiping together. I hope your Thanksgiving celebration is happy, and safe. God bless you and yours! β€
Romans 8:35, 38-39 - Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
My favorite passage in Ephesians is the armor of God in chapter 6, verses 10-18. Those words have energized my faith so many times when things were getting rough. They lifted me out of depression thereby changing my state of mind. God is so gracious, giving us exactly what we need to get through anything.
Hi Mary, we are in the Northwest of the US in Washington state. It is getting colder here also as the weather changes. Here is an update on my husband: He is still very tired after his stroke. He does some physical therapy through the week, but by the weekend, he is so worn out that he wants to spend most of his day stretched out on his recliner. I try to keep him motivated, but it wears me out because I have so many tasks to do throughout the week. We rest on the Sabbath, but after the weather improves, I hope to get him walking a bit during the Sabbath hours, and on Sunday as well. He does not have much drive.
I hope you are are keeping well in the change of weather. I don't know where in the world you are, Marylin, but here in Ireland it's getting cold. I'll keep you and your family, especially your husband, in prayer.
Hi everyone! Please join my group called Truth Be Told!!! Hope to see you there soon!πππ
Hi please join When Love Broke Through.
My husband got out of both the hospital and rehab early because he was receiving excellent care during rehab. The occupational, physical and speech therapies helped him make rapid progress, but he is still a bit weak on his right side. Fortunately the effect of the stroke is not profound. He can walk with a cane and walker, and even without those assists for short stretches. He does still need additional therapeutic support which he will arrange in the coming week as he needs to gain more strength and stability. And stairs are one of his chief obstacles. There are 3 flights of stairs at our church! During our illness, our son was sick for 3 days, and I was ill for a little over 4 days. It was a cold or three day flu bug. It may have come on as our immune systems were weakened by the stress of my husband's recent stroke.
My husband, Fred, has recently had more than one light stroke on the left side of his brain. We just admitted him to the hospital where he will remain for a few days. Then he will go directly to a rehab after that. I stayed overnight Friday night in the hospital with him. He is favoring his right side somewhat. He can still walk (praise God), but with assistance. No facial droop or slurred speech, but those brain bleeds have slowed him down significantly both physically and neurologically. He has some loss of right hand grip and control, and he walks with a slight limp. So he will not be coming home for a while. Please pray for Fred, and that I will have strength to endure.
Thank you for your positive and encouraging posts. I so appreciate the blessings I receive from reading and memorizing the word of God, and specifically James. But I have an urgent prayer request.
Just joined the group. looking forward to leveling up with everyone!
Finished chapter 1 and half of chapter 2 π

That's true Vickie! Good luck with it.
Iam back to memorizing scripture starting with James. It has beeb a while since I started James. I was pleasantly surprised with how much of chapter 1 I still remrmber. I need to spend some time just on chapter 1 before tackling chapter 2. One thingies decided to is go at my pace rather trying to memorize massive amounts of verses because someone else can.
Hi alb, the last three verses are very evocative. I was walking along in very hot weather (for Ireland) reciting 'for the sun is no sooner risen with a burning heat but it withereth the grass and the flower thereof falleth (etc) and suspect it's always going to resonate with memories of the Wild Atlantic Way. Also, until recently I was visually impaired, and got a huge shock recently when I looked in a mirror and a much older face than I expected stared out! Interestingly enough I do keep forgetting that I've aged and my less attractive than I imagined face still keeps taking me by surprise. So there's a very good lesson, if I want to see myself as I truly am I have to keep looking into the perfect law of liberty. This was a wonderful book to start out with.
Mary, those last sets of verses in chapter one evoke great images in me as I learn them, and I look into a mirror as the scripture says. Am I going to foget what The Word says there? And then the last three help guide my everyday life as I choose what I should be doing for others. I hope you enjoy your camping trip, and come back refreshed, and with even more enthusiasm for the word of God.
Hi everyone! Please join my group called Truth Be Told!!! Hope to see you there soon!πππ
I'd been hoping to complete James 1 before I went camping this week, but still a bit shaky on the last few verses. I'll keep on it. God bless brothers and sisters, keep up the good work.
Hi everyone! Please join my group called Truth Be Told!!! Hope to see you there soon!πππ
Oh, I'm really looking forward to Hebrews at some point.
Hi everyone! I decided to tackle Hebrews first but Iβm enjoying reading your updates on James!
Hi everyone! Please join my group called Truth Be Told!!! Hope to see you there soon!πππ
@Mary it's been going well.
What a privilege to see Israel.
Mary, after James I've now memorized 2 Timothy and 1 John. I've gained a good bit more insight into these books by having to have their words locked in my heart. Next up may be Jonah, a book that I'm finding has much more relevance for today than I appreciated. A few years ago I got to visit Israel, and went to Joppa. It was inspirational to see the port in person.
I've been memorizing Romans.
Hi everyone! Please join my group called Truth Be Told!!! Hope to see you there soon!πππ
What other books have you learned, Alb? I'm hoping to learn one of the gospels next, and am torn between Mark and John.
Mary, congratulations on your progress. James was the first whole book I memorized, and over the years I've found it a huge help to have this wisdom buried in my heart. I admire your determination as well as your motivation.
Hi! I'm half way through the first chapter. Keep going!
Hi everyone! Please join my group called Truth Be Told!!! Hope to see you there soon!πππ
And chatting is more fun.
Memorizing on this all is fun.
Hi all. Hope you are all having a beautiful Sunday. I'm memorising this book because it's the one that saved my husband before he died. Learning a minimum of three verses a day, hoping to have it hidden in my heart by the first week of August. How are you guys getting on?

Psalm 51:1-4 - Have mercy upon me, O God, according to Thy lovingkindness: according unto the multitude of Thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions. Wash me throughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin. For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me. Against Thee, Thee only, have I sinned, and done this evil in Thy sight: that thou mightest be justified when Thou speakest, and be clear when Thou judgest.
Psalm 91:1-4 - He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in Him will I trust. Surely He shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence. He shall cover thee with His feathers, and under His wings shalt thou trust: His truth shall be thy shield and buckler.

The video called the FINAL EVENTS OF BIBLE PROPHECY by Pastor Doug Batchelor (with Amazing Facts) has been re-uploaded to YouTube. Please pass this info on to your friends and family. Amazing Facts made this video about 20 years ago! It is amazing how much of what Pr Doug spoke about in the video is covered accurately of things that are happening in this day and time.
Joy, writing it down on a small card that you can carry with you and read several times a day really helps. Put the reference on one side and the verse on the other. You can also write it down in a small notebook and read it out loud periodically. Also following the review that increases daily works very well.
Well, when I was memorizing James, my mom would put some verses to a song we knew so that we would remember the verse more effectively.
Hello everyone, I've just started James. Are you using any particular method memorizing scripture?
Hi everyone! Please join my group called Truth Be Told!!! Hope to see you there soon!πππ
I was listening to a nice scripture songs CD I got at a mini-campmeeting that I went to recently in Hayden Lake, Idaho.The CD is called THE FINAL TEST, and is also entitled LOVE ME READY Scripture Songs. The songs are sung by Wintley Phipps, Jennifer LaMountain, Steve Darmody, Charles Haugabrooks, Christian Berdahl, Javier Gonzalez, Neville Peter, Rachel Hyman and others. You may be able to find the CD or DVD at the Homeward Publishing Ministries website.

Matthew 16:13-17 KJV - "When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, He asked His disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am? And they said, Some say that Thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets. He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-jona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven."
Will say, James [(ΞάκΟΞ²ΞΏΟ) which seems to transliterate better to Jacob. I believe the suffix sets his name apart from other Jacob's, explaining the large difference in the name.] has some of my favorite writings in the new testament. His words of wisdom which parallel teaching styles from Jesus himself and Solomon, really shows a difference from all the writers. Not to put him on a pedestal either way, all the writers have their own unique style but all share a common grounds with our Lord Jesus Christ!
Irregardless of what the devil does to try to intimidate me (and others), I am established in the faith and settled in my beliefs, just as it says in 1 Peter 5:8-10 KJV - "Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world. But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto His eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you."
April- we divided into teams (by drawing numbers) and are accountable on Sunday evenings. we get points per verse for our team. we've just begun, so no results yet ...
Hebrews is a Major task. However well worth the effort. π
I was planning to memorize James but I got drawn into Hebrews lol. Got the first two chapters of that done! I do plan to come back to James though.
yo yo yeah we are memorising the book of James, if the truth be told.
yes Iβm memorising James. Iβd say Caleb is just trying to canvass folks for his group .
SMB= Scripture Memory Bible.
Its alright. Heβs the type of SMB user who will probably not be active on this group. Are you memorizing James, jenny?
No sorry I do not . He should have mentioned that . Caleb Noah has a question?
Do you know how to get to the group?
Caleb in my opinion means crushing the enemy . Example Joshua and Caleb bring back a good report about defeating the giants. Symbolic to us as the church destroying demons.
I canβt find it! Iβm sorry but can you make it public or did you change the name?
Are we supposed to crush you there?
I'm Caleb can you join my team its called calebs crushers
Wow. Finally finished the entire book of James. Itβs been a wild ride with all of you OG members, even though you arenβt posting anymore. The entire reason I have been on this app for the past 3 years was to memorize said book. Throughout that time so many crazy things have happened across all the groups that have been woven into an epic and poetic story. I just want to say that Iβm proud I got to experience all this with all of you. So thank you. For guiding me, for being a fellow christian and being someone who I had the privilege of talking with. For giving me clarity throughout the pandemic. Whoever you are, if I know you, youβve probably been someone who has been a trustworthy person and a light in the darkness in a world that is ever increasing becoming hostile towards christianity. And no, this was not generated by ChatGPT.
does anyone have a bible memory group at their church? and if so how do you run it?
Justification Through Faith.
Romans 3:23-31
23. For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
24. Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
25. Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood for the remissions of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
26. To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.
27. Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith.
28. Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.
29. Is he the God of the Jews only? is he not also of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also
30. Seeing it is one God, which shall justify the circumcision by faith, and uncircumision through faith.
31. Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law.
A Plea For Mercy
Psalm 6:1-10
1. O Lord, rebuke me not in thine anger, neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.
2. Have mercy upon me, O Lord; for I am weak: O Lord, heal me; for my bones are vexed.
3. My soul is also sore vexed: but thou, O Lord, how long?
4. Return, O Lord, deliver my soul: oh save me for thy mercies sake.
5. For in death there is no remembrance of thee: in the grave who shall give thee thanks?
6. I am weary with my groaning; all the night make I my bed to swim; I water my couch with my tears.
7. Mine eye is consumed because of grief; it waxeth old because of all mine enemies.
8. Depart from me, all ye working of iniquity; for the Lord hath heard the voice of my weeping .
9. The Lord hath heard my supplication; the Lord will receive my prayer.
10. Let all mine enemies be ashamed and sore vexed: let them return and be ashamed suddenly.
Thomas Sees Jesus
John 20:26-31
26. And after eight days again his disciples were within, and Thomas with them: then came Jesus, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst, and said, Peace be unto you.
27. Then saith he to Thomas, Reach hither thy finger, and behold my hands; and reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into my side: and be not faithless, and believing.
28. And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God.
29. Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.
30. And many other signs truly did Jesus in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book.
31. But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name..
The Lord's Good And Mercy Endureth For Ever
Psalm 118:1-9
1. O give thanks unto the Lord; for he is good: because his mercy endureth for ever.
2. Let Israel now say, that his mercy endureth for ever.
3. Let the house of Aaron now say, that his mercy endureth for ever.
4. Let them now that fear the Lord say, that his mercy endureth for ever.
5. I called upon the Lord in distress: the Lord answered me, and set me in a large place.
6. The Lord is on my side; I will not fear: what can man do unto me?
7. The Lord taketh my part with them that help me: therefore shall I see my desire upon them that hate me.
8. It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in man.
9. It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in princes.
Praise And Bless The Lord
Psalm 113:1-9
1. Praise ye the Lord, Praise, O ye servants of the Lord, praise the name of the Lord.
2. Bless be the name of the Lord from this time forth and for evermore.
3. From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same the Lord's name is to be praised.
4. The Lord is high above all nations, and his glory above the heavens.
5. Who is like unto the Lord our God, who dwelleth on high,
6. Who humbleth himself to behold the things that are in the heaven, and in the earth!
7. He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth the needy out of the dunghill;
8. That he may set him with princes, even with the princes of his people.
9. He maketh the barren woman to keep house, and to be a joyful mother of children. Praise ye the Lord.
In The Body Of Christ
1 Corinthians 12:27-31
27. Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.
28. And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healing, helps, governments, diversities of tongues.
29. Are all apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? are all workers of miracles?
30. Have all the gift of healing? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret?
31. But covet earnestly the best gifts: and yet shew I unto you a more excellent way.
A Crown Of Glory And Honour
Hebrews 2:1-7
1. There we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip.
2. For if the word spoken by angels was steadfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just recompence of reward;
3. How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation; which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed unto us by them that heard him;
4. God also bearing them witness, both with signs and wonders, and with divers miracles, and gifts of the Holy Ghost, according to his own will?
5. For unto the angels hath he not put in subjection the world to come, whereof we speak.
6. But one in certain place testified, saying, What is man, that thou art mindful of him? or the Son Of Man, that thou visitest him?
7. Thou madest him a little lower than the angels; thou crowned him with glory and honour.
God Abundantly Pardons
Isaiah 54:1-7
1. Sing, O barren, thou that didst not bear; break forth into singing, and cry aloud, thou that didst not travial with child: for more are the children of the desolate than the children of the married wife, saith the Lord.
2. Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitations: spare not, lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes;
3. For thou shalt break forth on the right hand and on the left; and thy seed shall inherit the Gentiles, and make the desolate cities to be inhabited.
4. Fear not; for thou shalt not be ashamed: neither be thou confounded; for thou shalt not be put to shame: for thou shalt forget the shame.of thy youth, and shalt not remember the reproach of thy widowhood any more.
5. For thy Maker is thy husband; the Lord of host is his name; and thy Redeemer the Holy One of Israel; The God of the whole earth shall he be called.
Mighty Weapons of Warfare
2 Corinthians 10:1-6
1. Now I Paul myself beech you by the meekness and gentleness of Christ, who in presence am base among you, but being absent and behold toward you:
2. But I beech you, that I may not behold when I present with that confidence, wherewith I think to be hold against some, which think of us as if we walked according to the flesh.
3. For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh:
4. (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but might through God to the pulling down of strong holds;)
5. Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exhalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bring into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;
6. And having in readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled.
Samson Pray To God For Strength
Judges 16:28-31
28. And Samson called unto the Lord, and said, O Lord God, remember me, I pray thee, and strengthen me, I pray thee, only this once, O God, that I may be at once avenged of the Philistines for my two eyes.
29. And Samson took hold of the two middle pillars upon which the house stood, and on which it was borne up, of the one with his right hand, and of the other with his left.
30. And Samson said, Let me die with the Philistines. And he bowed himself with all his might; and the house fell upon the lords, and upon all the people that were therein. So the dead which he slew at his death were more than they which he slew in his life.
31. Then his brethern and all the house of his father came down, and took him, and brought him up, and buried him between Zorah and Eshtaol in the buryingplace of Manoah his father. And he judged Israel twenty years.
God's Righteousness
Psalm 72:1-8
1. Give the king thy judgments, O God, and thy righteousness unto the king's son.
2. He shall judge thy people with righteousness, and thy poor with judgment.
3. The mountains shall bring peace to the people, and the little hills, by righteousness.
4. He shall judge the poor of the people, he shall save the children of the needy, and shall break in pieces the oppressor.
5. They shall fear thee as long as the sun and moon endure, throughout all generations.
6. He shall come down like rain upon the mown grass: as showers that water the earth.
7. In his days shall the righteous flourish; and abundance of peace so long as the moon endureth
8. He shall have dominion also from sea to sea, and from the rivers unto the ends of the earth.
Plans For Hope And Future
Jeremiah 29:11-15
11. For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not evil, to give you an expected end.
12. Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you.
13. And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.
14. And I will be found of you, saith the Lord: and I will turn away your captivity, and I will gather you from all the nations, and from all places whither I have driven you, saith the Lord; and I will bring you again into the place whence I caused you to be carried away captive.
15. Because ye have said, The Lord hath raised us up prophets in Babylon;
Be Kind And Compassionate To One Another
Ephesians 4:29-32
29. Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.
30. And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.
31. Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with malice:
32. And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.
Psalms 51-1-10
1. Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy lovingkindness: according unto the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions.
2. Wash me thoughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.
3. For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me.
4. Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done this evil in thy sight: that thou mightest be justified when thou speakest, and be clear when thou judgest.
5. Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.
6. Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden part thou shalt make me know wisdom.
7. Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
8. Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice.
9. Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities.
10. Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.
