Beth Simcha

Verse of the Day

. Thursday April 18, 2024 10th day of the 1st month Nisan 5784 2nd Timothy 4:1-4 2 I charge you in the presence of God and of Messiah Yeshua, who is to judge the living and the dead, and by his appearing and his kingdom: preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with complete patience and teaching. For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths. Jim's comments Oh this is happening to way too many people today and it will get worse. People are turning away from good solid bible teaching to something new, and with so much out on the internet there are new and new teachings that seem new, but are not so new. Remember, Solomon wrote, What has been is what will be, and what has been done is what will be done, and there is nothing new under the sun. (Ecclesiastes 1:9). There are a lot of good bible teachers out there, and there are a lot of bible teachers who mislead people. Pray for the gift of discernment, and trust those who have been teaching you the truth for a long period of time. They may not change the way you want them to change, or teach what you want them to teach, they are preaching and teaching the whole word of God with patience and hoping to see you become a disciple of Messiah Yeshua. . . . . . .
