2 Timothy 3:

16 All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for

doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, 

17 that the man of God may be complete, 

thoroughly equipped for every good work.

The OP? Meh-be not so much.

Luke 10:

36 So which of these three do you think was neighbor

to him who fell among the thieves?

37 And he said, He who showed mercy on him.

Then Jesus said to him, Go and do likewise.

Great verse this is one of the commandments of the new covenant Jesus gave us to replace the old ten.

Don't  forget Hebrew is written and read from the Right to left, so if one is readi g the bible this way, it won't  make much sense.

Spot on. Nailed it in one. Bull's-eye.

This is something that has occupied me all my life. 

I have been around some very zealous and enthusiastic followers of Christ who are into stuff that plainly rubs me up the wrong way. 

Moving on from the vexations to the variations existing within the scope and scale of Christianity. The assemblies, the missions, the ministries, and the members of the body of Christ.

Often it's a case of here they come, hallelujah, praise the Lord, let's get along, then time's up, we're splitting up, we're moving on, and then they are gone.

On a global scale, the direction of human affairs is either towards Christ or away from Him. 

Seek you first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness . That's in the Bible.

Awesome to read Psalm 119 in Hebrew ( https://mechon-mamre.org/p/pt/pt26b9.htm ) as that way the meter as well as the acrostic nature of it is present.

Yes it seems to be!

And so is:

..." For we did not follow cunningly devised fables when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of His majesty.  For He received from God the Father honor and glory when such a voice came to Him from the Excellent Glory: “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”  And we heard this voice which came from heaven when we were with Him on the holy mountain.

And so we have the prophetic word confirmed, which you do well to heed as a light that shines in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts;  knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of any private interpretation,  for prophecy never came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit."
