It is an epistle of Paul as clearly indicated in several verses within the book and is one of the so called “prison epistles” written during his incarceration at Rome.
It is Paul’s shortest letter and we are often left wondering why God saw it fit to include it in the Holy Scripture
Who is Melchizedek?
We are to have the point of view that ALL scripture is given for a good reason and for our benefit.
FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. (AP) — One of the main reservoirs in the vast Colorado River water system that is struggling to serve the booming Southwest will get more water this year, but that won’t be enough to pull Lake Mead back from near-record lows.
Water managers, farmers and cities throughout the region have been closely watching the elevation at the reservoir behind Hoover Dam. It is at its lowest level since the dam was complete and the lake first was filled in the 1930s.
A drop to 1,075 would mean cuts in water deliveries to Arizona and Nevada.
Despite the additional water, Lake Mead is projected to remain near record lows at 1,083 feet in January – three feet higher than it was Wednesday. That’s because more water will be delivered to cities, farms, American Indian communities and Mexico than Lake Mead will get from Lake Powell.
Some water managers and users have been saving water for potential dry days or preparing for an expected water shortage in 2016. Bureau of Reclamation spokeswoman Rose Davis said officials still are running numbers that would show the percentage chance of cuts in 2016. Those figures are expected to be released later this month.
The entire Colorado River system supplies water to California, Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, Nevada, Utah, Wyoming and part of Mexico.
Will the Jews build one for a third time before the return of Christ? We go through what the Bible indicates will happen in the very near future.
Contrary to popular opinion the Bible actually requires us to make judgments – all the time!
We recently went over why God has allowed mankind to suffer. Those reasons however do not apply to God fearing and commandment keeping Christians. Find out why it is necessary for the begotten Children of God to go through trials.
This is probably the #1 unanswered question for most Bible students. If God is the loving, caring, compassionate being that we think He is, why doesn’t He intervene in the affairs of man and stop all the pain and suffering that is being endured — especially by the “innocents.”
God has outlined His plan of salvation in the little understood and even less kept Holy Days of God. Learn the meaning of the 2nd of God’s Holy Days.
We and those around us are defined by the decisions that we make and the consequences that follow. The current state of the world is a direct result of the poor and ungodly choices that we make and with them comes oppression — not freedom.
