Welcome To Our Page Of Scripture and Musings From The Last 5 Days of "Verse A Day".
1 Tim 5:1-6 Do not rebuke an older man but encourage him as you would a father, younger men as brothers, older women as mothers, younger women as sisters, in all purity.
Honor widows who are truly widows. But if a widow has children or grandchildren, let them first learn to show godliness to their own household and to make some return to their parents, for this is pleasing in the sight of God. She who is truly a widow, left all alone, has set her hope on God and continues in supplications and prayers night and day, but she who is self-indulgent is dead even while she lives.
++ Paul is teaching a young preacher how the Church has responsibilities to each other.
This is not available to those of us who are thinking that "virtual" church fulfills God's Plan.
Come have fellowship, be strengthened yourself as well as encouraging to others. Follow God's plan. Unless you are homebound for medical reasons, Paul is saying get off the couch.

Prov 16:3-4 Commit your work to the Lord, and your plans will be established.
The Lord has made everything for its purpose,
++ Col 3:23-25
Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You are serving the Lord Christ.
++ The Bible is not a book of rules, it's a way of life.
Acts 17-28 ‘To the unknown god.’ What therefore you worship as unknown, this I proclaim to you. The God who made the world and everything in it, being Lord of heaven and earth, does not live in temples made by man, nor is he served by human hands, as though he needed anything, since he himself gives to all mankind life and breath and everything. And he made from one man every nation of mankind to live on all the face of the earth, having determined allotted periods and the boundaries of their dwelling place, that they should seek God, and perhaps feel their way toward him and find him. Yet he is actually not far from each one of us, for ‘In him we live and move and have our being’;
