Luke 24 King James Version (KJV)
1 Now upon the first day of the week, very early in the morning,
they came unto the sepulchre, bringing the spices which they had
prepared, and certain others with them.
2 And they found the stone rolled away from the sepulchre.
3 And they entered in, and found not the body of the Lord Jesus.
4 And it came to pass, as they were much perplexed thereabout,
behold, two men stood by them in shining garments:
5 And as they were afraid, and bowed down their faces to the
earth, they said unto them, Why seek ye the living among the
dead?
6 He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spake unto you
when he was yet in Galilee,
7 Saying, The Son of man must be delivered into the hands of
sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again.
8 And they remembered his words,
9 And returned from the sepulchre, and told all these things
unto the eleven, and to all the rest.
10 It was Mary Magdalene and Joanna, and Mary the mother of
James, and other women that were with them, which told these
things unto the apostles.
11 And their words seemed to them as idle tales, and they
believed them not.
12 Then arose Peter, and ran unto the sepulchre; and stooping
down, he beheld the linen clothes laid by themselves, and
departed, wondering in himself at that which was come to pass.
13 And, behold, two of them went that same day to a village
called Emmaus, which was from Jerusalem about threescore
furlongs.
14 And they talked together of all these things which had
happened.
15 And it came to pass, that, while they communed together and
reasoned, Jesus himself drew near, and went with them.
16 But their eyes were holden that they should not know him.
17 And he said unto them, What manner of communications are
these that ye have one to another, as ye walk, and are sad?
18 And the one of them, whose name was Cleopas, answering said
unto him, Art thou only a stranger in Jerusalem, and hast not
known the things which are come to pass there in these days?
19 And he said unto them, What things? And they said unto him,
Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, which was a prophet mighty in deed
and word before God and all the people:
20 And how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him to be
condemned to death, and have crucified him.
21 But we trusted that it had been he which should have redeemed
Israel: and beside all this, to day is the third day since these
things were done.
22 Yea, and certain women also of our company made us
astonished, which were early at the sepulchre;
23 And when they found not his body, they came, saying, that
they had also seen a vision of angels, which said that he was
alive.
24 And certain of them which were with us went to the sepulchre,
and found it even so as the women had said: but him they saw
not.
25 Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe
all that the prophets have spoken:
26 Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter
into his glory?
27 And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded
unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself.
28 And they drew nigh unto the village, whither they went: and
he made as though he would have gone further.
29 But they constrained him, saying, Abide with us: for it is
toward evening, and the day is far spent. And he went in to
tarry with them.
30 And it came to pass, as he sat at meat with them, he took
bread, and blessed it, and brake, and gave to them.
31 And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he
vanished out of their sight.
32 And they said one to another, Did not our heart burn within
us, while he talked with us by the way, and while he opened to
us the scriptures?
33 And they rose up the same hour, and returned to Jerusalem,
and found the eleven gathered together, and them that were with
them,
34 Saying, The Lord is risen indeed, and hath appeared to Simon.
35 And they told what things were done in the way, and how he
was known of them in breaking of bread.
36 And as they thus spake, Jesus himself stood in the midst of
them, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you.
37 But they were terrified and affrighted, and supposed that
they had seen a spirit.
38 And he said unto them, Why are ye troubled? and why do
thoughts arise in your hearts?
39 Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me,
and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me
have.
40 And when he had thus spoken, he shewed them his hands and his
feet.
41 And while they yet believed not for joy, and wondered, he
said unto them, Have ye here any meat?
42 And they gave him a piece of a broiled fish, and of an
honeycomb.
43 And he took it, and did eat before them.

44 And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto
you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be
fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the
prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me.
45 Then opened he their understanding, that they might
understand the scriptures,
46 And said unto them,[size=14pt] Thus it is written, and thus
it behooved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the
third day:
47 And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached
in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
48 And ye are witnesses of these things.
John 21 King James Version (KJV)
1 After these things Jesus shewed himself again to the disciples
at the sea of Tiberias; and on this wise shewed he himself.
2 There were together Simon Peter, and Thomas called Didymus,
and Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, and the sons of Zebedee, and
two other of his disciples.
3 Simon Peter saith unto them, I go a fishing. They say unto
him, We also go with thee. They went forth, and entered into a
ship immediately; and that night they caught nothing.
HTML https://soberthinking.createaforum.com/gallery/soberthinking/1-170422131315.jpeg
4 But when the morning was now come, Jesus stood on the shore:
but the disciples knew not that it was Jesus.
5 Then Jesus saith unto them, Children, have ye any meat? They
answered him, No.
6 And he said unto them, Cast the net on the right side of the
ship, and ye shall find. They cast therefore, and now they were
not able to draw it for the multitude of fishes.
7 Therefore that disciple whom Jesus loved saith unto Peter, It
is the Lord. Now when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he
girt his fisher's coat unto him, (for he was naked,) and did
cast himself into the sea.
8 And the other disciples came in a little ship; (for they were
not far from land, but as it were two hundred cubits,) dragging
the net with fishes.
9 As soon then as they were come to land, they saw a fire of
coals there, and fish laid thereon, and bread.
10 Jesus saith unto them, Bring of the fish which ye have now
caught.
11 Simon Peter went up, and drew the net to land full of great
fishes, an hundred and fifty and three: and for all there were
so many, yet was not the net broken.
12 Jesus saith unto them, Come and dine. And none of the
disciples durst ask him, Who art thou? knowing that it was the
Lord.
13 Jesus then cometh, and taketh bread, and giveth them, and
fish likewise.
14 This is now the third time that Jesus shewed himself to his
disciples, after that he was risen from the dead.
15 So when they had dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon,
son of Jonas, lovest thou me more than these? He saith unto him,
Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him,
Feed my lambs.
16 He saith to him again the second time, Simon, son of Jonas,
lovest thou me? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that
I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my sheep.
17 He saith unto him the third time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest
thou me? Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third
time, Lovest thou me? And he said unto him, Lord, thou knowest
all things; thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus saith unto him,
Feed my sheep.
18 Verily, verily, I say unto thee, When thou wast young, thou
girdest thyself, and walkedst whither thou wouldest: but when
thou shalt be old, thou shalt stretch forth thy hands, and
another shall gird thee, and carry thee whither thou wouldest
not.
19 This spake he, signifying by what death he should glorify
God. And when he had spoken this, he saith unto him, Follow me.
Acts 1 King James Version (KJV)
1 The former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that
Jesus began both to do and teach,
2 Until the day in which he was taken up, after that he through
the Holy Ghost had given commandments unto the apostles whom he
had chosen:
3 To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many
infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking
of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God:
4 And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that
they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise
of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me.
5 For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized
with the Holy Ghost not many days hence.
6 When they therefore were come together, they asked of him,
saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom
to Israel?
7 And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or
the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.
8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come
upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem,
and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part
of the earth.
9 And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was
taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.
10 And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as he went up,
behold, two men stood by them in white apparel;
11 Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up
into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into
heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into
heaven.[/size]

"Proverbs" translates the Hebrew word
"mashal", but is not just short catchy sayings.

[center]Book of Proverbs[/center]
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Proverbs" translates the Hebrew word mashal, but "mashal" has a
wider range of meaning than the short catchy sayings implied by
the English word. Thus, while roughly half the book is made up
of "sayings" of this type, the other half is made up of longer
poetic units of various types. These include "instructions"
formulated as advice from a teacher or parent addressed to a
student or child, dramatic personifications of both Wisdom and
Folly, and the "words of the wise" sayings, longer than the
Solomonic "sayings" but shorter and more diverse than the
"instructions".[7]
The Book of Proverbs (Hebrew:
מִשְלֵי, Míshlê
(Shlomoh), "Proverbs (of Solomon)") is the second book of the
third section (called Writings) of the Hebrew Bible and a book
of the Christian Old Testament.[1] When translated into Greek
and Latin, the title took on different forms: in the Greek
Septuagint (LXX) it became
Παροιμίαι Paroimiai
("Proverbs"); in the Latin Vulgate the title was Proverbia, from
which the English name is derived.
Proverbs is not merely an anthology but a "collection of
collections" relating to a pattern of life which lasted for more
than a millennium.[2] It is an example of the Biblical wisdom
tradition, and raises questions of values, moral behaviour, the
meaning of human life, and right conduct.[3] The repeated theme
is that "the fear of God (meaning submission to the will of God)
is the beginning of wisdom".[4] Wisdom is praised for her role
in creation; God acquired her before all else, and through her
he gave order to chaos; and since humans have life and
prosperity by conforming to the order of creation, seeking
wisdom is the essence and goal of the religious life.[5]

Agelbert NOTE: Great scientists who pioneered the scientific
method, unlike many present scientists, who worship at the
atheist Darwinian altar, knew that Nature, that complex and
magnificently ordered life matrix we observe, admire and totally
depend on for our survival, also called the biosphere, must be
obeyed. Francis Bacon, a wise man who WAS NOT an atheist,
understood the message of Proverbs quite well.

[center]FRANCIS BACON: GOD AND ATHEISM[/center]
Sir Francis Bacon was critical in the development of the
scientific method, and, thus, being a philosophical/scientific
giant, atheists have attempted to recruit him as a supporter of
unbelief. Again they do so in vain, as Bacon made his religious
views quite clear in some of his works, and they are clearly
reflective of Christian beliefs. Ironically, he also expressed
his disdain for atheism, as shown below.
--- Quote ---
> "It is true, that a little philosophy inclineth man's mind to
atheism; but depth in philosophy brings about man's mind to
religion: for while the mind of man looketh upon second causes
scattered, it may sometimes rest in them, and go no further; but
when it beholdeth the chain of them confederate and linked
together, it must needs fly to Providence and Deity."(Bacon, 64)
>
> “They that deny a God destroy man's nobility; for certainly
man is of kin to the beasts in his body; and, if he be not of
kin to God by his spirit, he is a base and ignoble creature.”
(Bacon, 67)
>
> “It is better to have no opinion of God at all, than such an
opinion as is unworthy of him: for the one is unbelief the other
is contumely; and certainly superstition is the reproach of the
Deity.” (Bacon, 68)
