I found two corroborations on the word "gospel" yesterday
Grateful:
Thanks, Kat & Indianabob, for your input!! :D ;D I can't chat right now, but will get back to you as soon as possible, as I need to get things done for a few hours.
Kat, you've given me food for thought (BTW, I've read that article before, but it sure doesn't hurt to review it!! :) ). Thanks!
So Salvatore LaDuca is my age too!! His and my roots have sunk deep into Earth, and I'm trying to sink further into God's Bible and sprout "good stuff" ABOVE ground! haha! ;D ;D ;)
Ciao for niao!!

Hi Linda,
Your study of the two 'good tidings' in both the Old and New Testament brings to mind that Jesus is the God of both the O.T. and N.T. Here's a Ray quote:
The Lord of the Old Testament is "Jehovah" which is a Proper NAME, not a title as is "Lord" in the New Testament. Even so, Jehovah was NOT Jesus' Father, but Jesus Himself. Moses heard and saw Jehovah, whereas NO MAN HAS EVER seen or heard the Father. (John 5:37).
Jesus/Jehovah and His message of the coming kingdom are good tidings indeed. :)
Joy,

You can only imagine my SURPRISE and Joy in discovering that Jesus IS Jehovah, thus tying the OT and the NT together quite NEATLY!!! WHAT a piece of work Ray did in bringing out revelatory Scriptures that testified to Jesus' "LORD" status in the OT !!! Ray has astounded me MANY times at the depth of his Scriptural research in alllll of his papers in the bible-truths.com website..... Like I said in one of my postings elsewhere in this Forum, I have smiled soooooo many times upon discovering another Truth that Ray revealed, as I read all of the papers he has written. I wish I had the time right now to read ALL of them again, as a brush-up "course"! :)
BTW, didn't Jesus say that He Himself HAS seen the Father of us all? (I don't have my Strong's Concordance handy at the moment.) If so, He certainly held a privileged position, being the First-Born of ALL creatures! He must certainly have strong eyes in order to be able to behold the Father.....since God is Light , and the Father of lights ! :) :)
De-light-ed ,

Deborah-Leigh:
To build on what you observe Linda, these scriptures came to mind.
Matt 10:22 All things have been given over into My power by My Father; and no one knows Who the Son is except the Father, or Who the Father is except the Son and anyone to whom the Son may choose to reveal and make Him known.
Matt 11 : 27 All things have been entrusted and delivered to Me by My Father; and no one fully knows and accurately understands the Son except the Father, and no one fully knows and accurately understands the Father except the Son and anyone to whom the Son deliberately wills to make Him known.
For me this shows a new way of living and seeing which is unlike our physical or natural sight. Here in the above scriptures I "see" that sight is revelation from Christ to our minds giving us comprehensive insight into the ways and purposes of the Father and accurate understanding of the Son.
Quite different from physical sight!
Excerpts from http://bible-truths.com/kennedy2.htm
1. Whatever we teach must "glorify" God.
"Glory to God in the highest ... " (Lk. 2:14).
" ... that in all God may be glorified ... " (I Pt. 4:11).
2. Whatever we teach must not detract one iota from Christ's sacrifice for all humanity.
See what I mean? ;D ;)
Peace be to you

Hi Linda, :)
Many search for the truth in the most hard to reach places, expecting it to be almost impossible to find. Yet this not always the case; more often enough it is because one is blinded and simply cannot see the most obvious. Yet no one should be surprised at this, for God wants it this way.
Jhn 12:40 He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not see with [their] eyes, nor understand with [their] heart, and be converted, and I should heal them.
Now for the "Obvious" truth that is always overlooked. :)
Col 1:15 Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:
Col 1:16 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether [they be] thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:
So who created man? Not God the Father, but his Son; refered to as Jehovah in the Hebrew Scriptures. When given "Spiritual" eyes that see, truth is everywhere and one cannot help but find it and understand it for the truth that it is.
When I read what Ray said about Jehovah and Christ being one of the same, I was shocked. It fit so well, and could find a dozen Scriptures that supported it. Rays few words were enough to open my eyes, ears and heart to the truth completely.
Praise be to God, who gives us all we need in his time.
Love to you in Christ,
Darren
