I thought up a new thing that we all could do. I was thinking that every week, I will post a chapter from the book of the Bible, along some text references with them. And everyone can share their thoughts on these verses, posts other verses that has a connection to any verse of the chapter, post songs or poems, or post basically anything that has a connection to the chapter. I am planning to go through book by book. Also, I am not doing this for milage. It means about going through the Bible as quickly as possible. But to break the Word of God down and dig through His Word to find more food, more treasures in it.

This week's chapter is 1 John 1. Lord Willingly, we will complete 1 John by July 28th.

Quote:
1. That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life;

2. (For the life was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and shew unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us wink

3. That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.

4. And these things write we unto you, that your joy may be full.

5. This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.

6. If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:

7. But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.

8. If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.

9. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

10. If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
