More to a word than black on white.

More to ''The Word'' than what we read.




Completness, Wholness, Health, Peace, Welfare, Safety, Soundness, Tranquility, Prosperity, Perfectness, Fulness, REST, Harmony, The absence of Agitation or Discord.

Um...I would say no and yes, depending on the point you are trying to make.

The message of Christ is simplicity in its entirety...(yet the majority cant seem to accept its simplicity) However the mysteries of the "Word" are unfathomable.

Hi laterunner,

The reason for no response is because your first post didn't really make any sense. In the second post, you changed it to a question, which showed that you desired an answer.

However, I too have been surprised at the lack of discussion on this forum compared with others I've been on.



To answer your question, yes there is more to the word than black on white, and more to the Word than just what we read. It's a living Book, which God uses to communicate to us about our daily needs (though it's not the only way that He talks to us).




And the Miranda Rights is what you hear in American movies when someone says, "Read him his rights."

Wikipedia describes it as:

A Miranda warning is a warning given by police to criminal suspects in police custody, or in a custodial situation, before they are interrogated. A custodial situation is one in which the suspect's freedom of movement is restrained although he or she is not under arrest. An incriminating statement by a suspect will not constitute admissible evidence unless the suspect was advised of his or her "Miranda rights" and made a knowing, intelligent, and voluntary waiver of those rights (the term "Miranda rights" is somewhat misleading, as the mandated Miranda warning simply clarifies preexisting Constitutional rights). However, a 2004 Supreme Court ruling upheld state "stop-and-identify" laws, allowing police to require biographical information such as name, date of birth, and address, without arresting suspects or providing them Miranda warnings.

Basically, a cop may say something like, "You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to an attorney present during questioning. If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be appointed for you. Do you understand these rights?"
 
Hello 'laterunner' and 'oboy'

Just reading what you say it would seem you draw attention that your 'thread'/post' has not received a reply.

I apologise for this. I confess that on my visit's to 'talkjesus' I have not noticed or picked up on the point/truth/teaching/question, or such you are making........Forgive me/us


I have noted your 'pseudonym' and will try to amend our mistake.


Be Blessed ....in Jesus
 
I now see that I'll how to ask for comments as I offten post comments

or questions that I leave in the air for people to grasp as they see fit.

Just making a point of interest to me & hopefully someone else.

I'm not really into very deep study or arguments. (discussions.)

We over here usually see Shalom as a salutation meaning peace & not much else.


how about over your side of the pond.???

Same here.

Is that what you were talking about -- more to "Shalom" than just "peace"?
 
The meaning of the word "Shalom"

The Hebrew word SHALOM is understood around the world to mean peace. But peace is only one small part of the meaning of the word SHALOM. In Israel, even though they don't have much in the way of peace, they use the word SHALOM on a daily basis. They use it to greet people with, and use it to bid farewell to people. However, SHALOM means much more than peace, hello or goodbye.

Strong's Concordance 7965 - Hebrew Shalom .....
A word study in the New King James version for SHALOM says:
Completeness, wholeness, health, peace, welfare, safety soundness, tranquility, prosperity, perfectness, fullness, rest, harmony, the absence of agitation or discord.
Shalom comes from the root verb Shalom meaning to be complete, perfect and full. In modern Hebrew the obviously related word Shelem means to pay for, and Shulam means to be fully paid.

Sar SHALOM (Prince of Peace) is one of the descriptive names the Bible uses to indicate the ministry and personality of the Messiah: Isaiah 9:6 - The Son of God is completely perfect in all things.

So in essence, when you speak out the word SHALOM - you are not only proclaiming peace, but all the above meanings of the word over that person - that's a mighty blessing!!!

Remember what the word of God says - "there is life or death in the power of the tongue".

We recently heard someone on a Christian TV program say: "No wonder the Jewish people are so blessed, because every time they say Shalom to one another, they are also allowing the full meaning (see above) of SHALOM to be pronounced over them. He humorously proceeded to say that this greeting word would be much more beneficial to the American people if they greeted each other with SHALOM instead of their usual "Hi" or "Howdy" greeting. As Josie and I adapted to life in Israel, we adapted to the SHALOM habit over the "Hi" habit....As Messianic Jews, we are called to bless you and we take that very seriously, by praying for you and by greeting you with SHALOM. Therefore, from now on, when we or someone says SHALOM to you, you should receive it as a tremendous blessing. And bless them back with a hearty SHALOM!"

Numbers 6:24-26:
Meaning of Eden

Bible. The garden of God and the first home of Adam and Eve. Also called Garden of Eden.
A delightful place; a paradise.
A state of innocence, bliss, or ultimate happiness.
Garden of Eden,
The beautiful garden containing the tree of life, where God intended Adam and Eve to live in peaceful and contented innocence, effortlessly reaping the fruits of the Earth. The garden also contained the tree of knowledge of good and evil, from which Adam and Eve were forbidden to eat. When they disobeyed and ate the forbidden fruit, God drove them from the garden. Their sin and consequent loss of God's grace and of their paradise is known as the Fall of Man.
· Figuratively, a “Garden of Eden” (sometimes simply “the Garden,” or “Eden”) is any state or place of complete peace and happiness.
 
The Message (MSG)
2 Cor.
4-6
We couldn't be more sure of ourselves in this—that you, written by Christ himself for God, are our letter of recommendation. We wouldn't think of writing this kind of letter about ourselves. Only God can write such a letter. His letter authorizes us to help carry out this new plan of action. The plan wasn't written out with ink on paper, with pages and pages of legal footnotes, killing your spirit. It's written with Spirit on spirit, his life on our lives!

View 2 Corinthians commentry.

The preference of the gospel to the law given by Moses.

Even the appearance of self-praise and courting human applause, is painful to the humble and spiritual mind. Nothing is more delightful to faithful ministers, or more to their praise, than the success of their ministry, as shown in the spirits and lives of those among whom they labour. The law of Christ was written in their hearts, and the love of Christ shed abroad there. Nor was it written in tables of stone, as the law of God given to Moses, but on the fleshy (not fleshly, as

fleshliness denotes sensuality) tables of the heart, Eze 36:26. Their hearts were humbled and softened to receive this impression, by the new-creating power of the Holy Spirit. He ascribes all the glory to God. And remember, as our whole dependence is upon the Lord, so the whole glory belongs to him alone. The letter killeth: the letter of the law is the ministration of death; and if we rest only in the letter of the gospel, we shall not be the better

for so doing: but the Holy Spirit gives life spiritual, and life eternal. The Old Testament dispensation was the ministration of death, but the New Testament of life. The law made known sin, and the wrath and curse of God; it showed us a God above us, and a God against us; but the gospel makes known grace, and Emmanuel, God with us. Therein the righteousness of God by faith is revealed; and this shows us that the just shall live by his faith; this makes known the grace and mercy of God through

Jesus Christ, for obtaining the forgiveness of sins and eternal life. The gospel so much exceeds the law in glory, that it eclipses the glory of the legal dispensation. But even the New Testament will be a killing letter, if shown as a mere system or form, and without dependence on God the Holy Spirit, to give it a quickening power. (2Co 3:12-18)

Amplified Bible

30There are also many other signs and miracles which Jesus performed in the presence of the disciples which are not written in this book.


King James Version

30And many other signs truly did Jesus in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book:
-------------------------
There is more to the bible than the written word. What we hear, & have read is laid on our hearts. we can be the living word to others as we are what we eat. Or don't you think this is true.???
