Colossians 3:8-17 King James Version 8  But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth. 9  Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds; 10  And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him: 11  Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all. 12  Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering; 13  Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye. 14  And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness. 15  And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful. 16  Let the...

  Hello my brothers and sister in Christ I am sharing another portion from my King James Bible; this portion is Colossians 3: 8-17. Paul is writing to tell the new believers to  get rid of the old self and start a new life with Christ. Colossians 3:8-17 King James Version 8  But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth. 9  Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds; 10  And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him: 11  Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all. 12  Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering; 13  Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forg...

Today I am sharing a few Bible verses from my King James Version; beginning with these from Ephesians two 6-10. Ephesians 2:6-10King James Version 6  And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: 7  That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus. 8  For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9  Not of works, lest any man should boast. 10  For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. The next few verses are about Christ and His power over all things; they are found in Paul’s letter to the Colossi ans 5  For the hope which is laid up for you in heaven, whereof ye heard before in the word of the truth of the gospel; 6  Which is come unto you, as it is in all the world; and bringeth forth fruit, as it doth a...

 It is a nice Fall day, cool and still, a baby blue sky, as far as my eyes can see; there is an array of many colours, covering the hillsides, across the road from me. Many birds are now flocking, to make their journey, to the warmer southern places, and then return in Spring, and they will sing, sing, sing. We, like the birds, are on our journey back home, from our short life on earth, and an eternal home in Heaven, according to God's Eternal plan; gathering around God's Throne, giving Honour and Praise, to the Lord of Lords and King of Kings! ~Winston Staples

 It is the last day of September, the leaves are changing colour fast, they are so pretty on the hillsides around, colours of red, orange, yellow and bronze. With the next rain and wind, they will surely all fall to the ground. Just like the multi- coloured leaves, We Christians are multi- coloured, multi- sized and like the leaves seen; sharing God's pure and preserved words, on the highways and byways all around. In Churches, schools, and court yards everywhere, and they can hear the gospel message, and believe it and be saved, yes, saved for eternity, and the power of the grave. ~Winston Staples

Psalm 130:1-6 King James Version 130  Out of the depths have  I cried unto thee, O  Lord . 2  Lord, hear my voice:  let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications. 3  If thou,  Lord , shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand? 4  But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared. 5  I wait for the  Lord , my soul doth wait,  and in his word do I hope. 6  My soul waiteth for the Lord more than they that watch for the morning: I say, more than they that watch for the morning.

 When my brother and I were young, We were blessed with a great older brother, And a loving mom and dad; We would get home from school, And we would do our chores, We would walk to our friends house, And after he got his chores done, We would play some games outside; Oh, how we loved the outdoors. It would be getting dark, Before we would walk back home, And we would imagine things not there ; Those dark shadows became a bobcat or a bear. In our spiritual life Satan castes, Dark shadows on our trail, Like the ones we saw at night, Twisting God’s words saying, Did God really say that? He wants us to fall off the right path; So beware of Satan’s dark shadows, And focus on God’s words, And you will be all right! I remember a song, “ Evening shadows make me blue “. My friend, spend time reading God’s words, And spend time in prayer, And this won’t happen to you! ~Winston Staples 

 I sit with pen in hand, Remembering back, In the days of when; When I loved to run, A mile in four minutes ten, Play hockey and ball, Pick potatoes and hunt in the fall; I get lonely for the folks  Sweet pleasant folks, Of those days of when. When Sunday was respected by all, We heard the Church bell ring, People from all around, Answer the call. Their Bibles were read, The choir would sing; The Preacher gave a message, And an Altar call, Oh, to enjoy that that again, Back in the days of when. We were able to read, God’s Words altogether, The words were all the same, Wonderful words in unison, As they read from their King James! Oh, how special, Back in the days of when! ~Winston Staples 

 Here I am watching again, sitting still, watching traffic, on the 104,  and the birds at the feeders, and flying to trees and back again. My mind slips into another gear, when I was small, and Aunt Annie lived here. On Sunday a man came, and he sit on the porch, with binoculars he made, watching the hill for a deer. Aunt Annie love people, and her neighbours to drop in, have a cup of tea,  and maybe some cookies for me, My Grand Parents lived across the road, enjoying their family, and watching them as they growed. I miss them all; I would love to see them again; I know most believed in Christ, and they are with the Savior, and waiting for us to join them up there. I sit and watch the clouds float by, and my ears are listening, for sounds in the sky; because one day soon in the clouds, our Redeemer will appear,rr and a trumpet will sound, O, what sweet music to my ears. So dear friend, I ask this from you, Do you believe in Jesus? His life, His cross, His death, His resu...
