A puzzle
Have you ever put a puzzle together, if you have then you know that examining the picture on the face of the box has an enormous value. Our lives are like puzzles, they are going together one piece at a time by things which happen and our response to them in our daily life.
Without the picture on the front of the box it would be very hard to put this puzzle/life together. But God has given us the picture on the front of the box to examine.
Rom 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
Rom 8:29 For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren
Jesus’ life in the flesh is that picture for us to examine. That is why the Word tells us that the spirit of the antichrist is that spirit which denies Jesus was in the flesh. For without Jesus being in the flesh there would be no picture for us to examine.
1Jn 4:3 And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.
John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
Jesus’ life is the example by which we are to use for our life!
Pro_29:18 Where there is no vision, the people perish…

Hi, Lewiss, here I am and this is a great post
Thank you Liz! Did you have any problems leaving the comment?
I see what might be wrong Bro. Lewis, and yours is the only site that has it this way. Under all the posting is the one you want to look at and comment on. Everyone else you comment on the one you click to comment and the comment is right under the blog.
This was a very good blog and thank you for posting it.
I am wondering why your set up this way that you have to go to the end of the page to read what you want to comment on?
I haven't seen anyone else like that.
I am not set up that way.
But I will try to remember that is what I have to do and I think it will work. Bro. Doc
Thanks Bro Doc, that got me a couple times, I didn trealize I had to scroll all the way to the bottom to comment at first. I am not for sure how I got it this way, but I had it in a big mess for awhile and who knows what has been changed. LOL
Yours is the only site Bro. Lewis, that I have to scroll too the end of things to read the post complete. This is why everything was a mess. I knew about scrolling to the end to leave a comment, but not reading the post. lol. Bro. Doc
@Lewis1122 - NO, Lewis, no problem!
@BroDoc - you would not haver to do that if you click the lin in your email where you get your Xanga notifications. Otherwise you do scroll and so do I and yet I am not complaining!
@Lewis1122 - hehehe to big mess!
What I am talking about Sis. Elizabeth his is the only site of my friends that is set up like this. Where to read the blog you have to scroll all the blog to the bottom of the page to get to read the blog you want too read. all the rest of my friends you go to the blog you want to read and there it is. You only have to scroll to the bottom of the page for the comment posting. Bro. Doc
@BroDoc - I think I made it easier for you, I changed it.
Wonderful Post Lewis....And thank you for fixing the problem...
Doc was right, before, you had to go through all the posts, before
getting the current post....This way is easier....God Bless!!
Thanks Ellie.
@Lewis1122 - He's a jolly good fellow, he's a jolly good fellow...:)
@Lewis1122 - It does appear to be better Bro. Lewis. Thank you. Bro. Doc
Oh, yes... I've been like a 3 year old trying to fit some pieces that just don't match... but alas, the Lord is faithful and shows me the right way...
@Sisterinchrst - I too have over the years found puzzel pieces that I tried to fit into the wrong place, once we have the right piece it makes seeing the wrong piece much easier. That is the value in a close realtionship with the Lord, he gives us more of a glimpse of the picture.
