Matthew 11:16 & 17

"To what can I compare this generation? They are like children sitting in the marketplaces and calling out to others:

"'We played the pipe for you, and you did not dance; we sang a dirge, and you did not mourn.'

Prov 8:5 [FONT=&quot]O ye simple, understand wisdom: and, ye fools, be ye of an understanding heart.[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot] and how good is a timely word![/FONT]

Although I dont know if he wants us to post and he post against ours or us even off the other, I dont think it matters like playing ping pong! Feels more like chess, what a great idea for a thread actually (thanks Thomas!)

I was taught this years ago ... my bible teacher called it Bible-Boxing

There seems THAT too, or what I would have thought more along the lines of pitting the scriptures as in that kind of match, versus delivering the word and serving to it that which agrees more perfectly, which has more of the feeling of chess to boxing. Your version is throwing my balance off [FONT=&quot] [/FONT]

I have to run it thru mine (and hear the wording to pick up its complimentary verse there) that is weird but I find its true for me when you are used to a specific version.

Anyway, I dont say too much and tick Th0mas off (he is the quiet type)

One verse usually brings to remembrance another verse ... I actually have labelled it "connecting the dots" as in the Holy Spirit connects the dots to bring us to understanding.

You're welcome. I think of this as sharing our experiences.

The heart of the righteous weighs its answers,
but the mouth of the wicked gushes evil.

[FONT=&quot]The heart of the wise teacheth his mouth, and addeth learning to his lips.

Proverbs 30:2
Surely I am more brutish than any man, and have not the understanding of a man.
3 I neither learned wisdom, nor have the knowledge of the holy.
4*Who has ascended up into heaven, or descended? who has gathered the wind in his fists? who has bound the waters in a garment? who has established all the ends of the earth? what is his name, and what is his son's name, if you can tell?
5*Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him.
6*Add you not unto his words, lest he reprove you, and you be found a liar.
