[Faith-talk] Weekly Bible Trivia Game Poem for Sunday, May 8, 2016

[Paul Smith]

Hello and good day to you all on this Mother's Day, at least here in 
the U.S. and Canada.  I hope you are all doing well, and that you 
mothers will receive or have received a surprise gift that you wanted 
but didn't think you would ever get.  That's always something good, right?

And now for this week's Bible trivia game poem for you, this time based 
on a book and chapter of the Old Testament.  For those who don't know, 
the Lord led me to post these weekly poems several years ago, 
originally written by the late Alvy E. Ford of Tamecula Ca.  Brother 
Ford took it on himself to write a little poem on every chapter of the 
Bible, something that I myself wouldn't have tackled.  My Old testament 
collection only covers from Song of Songs to Malachi.

And with that, let's see if you can give me the book and chapter of 
this week's poem.

Glory now comes from the way of the east.
Prophet is given the law of the priest.
He must recount all the things he has seen.
Blood on the altar makes everything clean.

Well folks, I would get the book all right, but the chapter would elude 
me were someone else running this game.  Let's see how well you do with 
your responses.

Don't forget that the goal in presenting these weekly ditties is not to 
find out how clever you are, but to hopefully get you to delve more 
deeply into God's Word, the Bible.

And that will do it for today.  Until next Sunday when, Lord willing 
another Bible trivia game poem will be posted, then from the New 
Testament, may the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob just keep us safe, 
individually and collectively, in these last days in which we live.  
Your Christian friend and brother, Paul
