M30USA Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 (edited) Here's my latest pick. This one took a minute to visualize, but when I got a picture in my mind, I found it hysterical! JESUS' FAMILY THINKS HE'S GONE CRAZY! "Then Jesus entered a house, and again a crowd gathered, so that he and his disciples were not even able to eat. When his family heard about this, they went to take charge of him, for they said, “He is out of his mind.” (Mark 3:20, 21 NIV) To think that the family members of God, himself, have to take charge and run after him (God) to try to contain his madness! Lol! Edited May 14, 2013 by M30USA 6 Link to post Share on other sites
TheFinalWord Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 They did that kind of stuff and even provoked him... The Visual Bible - Gospel of John - YouTube I love Jesus' response..."my time has not yet full come". A few times in life God has given me a vision and I have told no one, b/c it would just get criticized. Some visions are just between you and God. If you do confide, and someone tries to discourage, I think of this saying from Jesus. 4 Link to post Share on other sites
Robert Z Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 I always tried to imagine myself in Peter's shoes. HIM? Heck no, I don't know him. Jeez... {crow} oh crap. 4 Link to post Share on other sites
Robert Z Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 I guess I should have said that I always tried to imagine myself in his sandals. I always liked it when as a boy, he was messing with scholars at the temple. Then he gives a smart-ass response to his parents when they said they had been looking for him. I could imagine my mother's response. "You just come down from your high horse mister!!! We've been looking for days! Son of God or not, you're grounded!!!!!!" 5 Link to post Share on other sites
pie2 Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 I LOVE this! I'm cracking up !! I love when Jesus heals people and tells them not to say a word...and they run around blabbing it all over the place, heehee . 3 Link to post Share on other sites

Or what about the time at the wedding of Cana when the wine ran out and Mary, his mom, asks Jesus to help fix the apparently petty problem and Jesus said, "Woman, why do you involve me? My time has not yet come." 4 Link to post Share on other sites

Did you notice that sometimes Jesus told them they SHOULD tell people of their healing, and other times he said they SHOULDN'T? Very bizarre. I believe this is an example of the precise, micro-plan of God at the time. In other words, it had to be done exactly a certain way at that exact time. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Also, it's nice to remember that sometimes opening my big mouth is all just a part of God's plan. Link to post Share on other sites
johan Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 God almost certainly has no sense of humor. If you're laughing at the Bible you're either not really getting it, or you've been reading it too much. Link to post Share on other sites

Author M30USA Posted May 15, 2013 Author Share Posted May 15, 2013 Yes, silly woman. Alright alright already, I made some booze for the guests, okay? It was some pretty high-quality booze, too. “Everyone brings out the choice wine first and then the cheaper wine after the guests have had too much to drink; but you [Jesus] have saved the best till now.” (John 2:10 NIV) That verse is highly prophetic and can represent everything from his later miracles, to his resurrection, to his second coming.

TheFinalWord Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 God almost certainly has no sense of humor. If you're laughing at the Bible you're either not really getting it, or you've been reading it too much. "The One enthroned in heaven laughs; the Lord scoffs at them." God apparently gets a chuckle out of humans that he created trying to teach him, instruct him, offer him tips, and pretend they can usurp him...one fella already tried that...(Lucifer). But you laugh at them, LORD; you scoff at all those nations. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Eve Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 Exodus 14:25 He twisted their chariot wheels, making their chariots difficult to drive. "Let's get out of here--away from these Israelites!" the Egyptians shouted. "The LORD is fighting for them against Egypt!" Such a simple intervention. I can just imagine the army of Egyptians crapping themselves as they tried (in all their bravado and regailia) to steer their chariots. Take care, Eve x 1 Link to post Share on other sites
