13 Significant Chapters in the Bible

It’s been awhile since I posted a 13 list here. I’ve been busy with health concerns and then in January I suddenly realized the Thursday Thirteen hub site had basically gone away. A much smaller group of devotees have attempted to keep things going, and I’m anxious to join in on the fun.

So, here is THIS week’s 13 list:

Back in March, 2008 I posted a list of hot topics and where you can find them in the Bible here….topics like the ten commandments, praise of God, the Lord’s prayer, etc.

Here are 13 more hot topics with a link to the Biblical passage…

1. The sower and seed chapter… Matthew 13

2. The protection of the sheep chapter… John 10

3. The comfort chapter…. John 14

4. The abiding chapter… John 15

5. The justification chapter…. Romans 5

6. The sanctification chapter… Romans 6

7. The glorification chapter… Romans 8

8. The marriage chapter… 1 Corinthians 7

9. The gifts chapter… 1 Corinthians 12

10. The love chapter… 1 Corinthians 13

11. T he Resurrection chapter… 1 Corinthians 15

12. The fruit of the spirit chapter… Galatians 5

13. The faith chapter… Hebrews 11

Wordless: Verse 57


The object in this image is known as the Cleopatra Gate in Tarsus, Turkey. This is the spot in 41 BC where the legendary lovers known as Marc Antony and Cleopatra met. During the Roman Era Tarsus was the capital of the Roman province Cilicia. People would have sailed through the gate as the spot was on the Mediterranean coastline. Over time, of course, the coastline has changed.

Tarsus is also remembered for being the birthplace of Paul.

The picture above is the gate after restoration. The picture below shows the gate in its ancient glory. I kind of wish they had left it alone.....

Because

Last week my church held their annual Vacation Bible School. I loved this year’s music. For my Monday Music selection this week I decided I would use the Boomerang Express music. You can access all the music at the Lifeway site here at the top of the page.

Once particular song….Because….was my favorite. I found one video using it at YouTube so it’s not much on the scenary, but you can hear it and see the words. It really is a very pretty song.



Last year I posted some of my summer memories about what I remember from my summers in the late 1970s, and how I loved Vacation Bible School. You can read it here.
