I won't eat or drink
by peacefulpete inok, a verse that had always thought odd was luke 22:16,18 (cf matt 26:29mark 14:25, luke 22:18) where jesus is made to say when reclining to eat the meal " for i say to you that never in any way will i eat of it until it is bountifully provided in the kingdom of god!
" and "truly i say to you,that in no way will i drink from the produce of the vine until the kingdom of god is come!
i know the numerous attempts to interpret the passage as symbolic but it sounds to me like a vow to abstain until the kingdom arrived.

reason on this....
by myelaine ini just wanted to share something with you that i believe is very important.
2 tim 3:16 states: all scripture is inspired of god and beneficial for teaching, for reproving, for setting things straight, for disciplining in righteousness, that the man of god may be fully competent, completely equipped for every good work.
now we are told that in every thing we do, every day of our lives we can turn to gods word to help us, to equip us, to feed us for every good work.

MOSES AND THE COPPER SERPENT......mysterious!
by Terry inisn't it odd; even mysterious that christians think jesus could be represented by a serpent?
numbers 21:8 and the lord said unto moses, make thee a fiery serpent, and set it upon a pole: and it shall come to pass, that every one that is bitten, when he looketh upon it, shall live.
21:9 and moses made a serpent of brass, and put it upon a pole, and it came to pass, that if a serpent had bitten any man, when he beheld the serpent of brass, he lived.
