Day 139 "Is Following Jesus a Bait-and-Switch Scheme?" - Bible in a Year Reading Plan - May 19

Today in our Bible in a Year Reading Plan, we'll talk about bait-and-switch schemes and whether Christianity could be interpreted as one more bait-and-switch scheme.
Today's Readings:
2 Samuel 9 & 10
Psalm 65.1-8
Proverbs 16.20-21
John 6.1-21
For Further Thought:
1. Why were the crowds following Jesus in John 6? How did Jesus correct their wrong ideas about following Him?
2. How could some Christians' ideas about Christianity be taken as a bait-and-switch scheme?
3. How did David fulfill his promise to Jonathan and the covenant he made with him here in 2 Samuel 9?

I love Proverbs 16:20 - whoever gives thought to the word will discover good - we are to ponder the word and dwell in it - Amen.

We can never do that enough, can we!

I have been a Christian for 35 years And was living a weak relationship with Christ. Through a accident I totally surrender my life And spending time in pray And the word.And renewing my mind.Everything has changed.

What a grace gift, John. Even though I'm sure it was hard to go through, God is so faithful to use those things, isn't He?

God is so faithful, so good even when we don't understand, one day we will. Love that song by Mercy Me; Will I. Want it to be played with words at my funeral and the invitation to accept Jesus.

Yes, he is so faithful. It should never cease to amaze us.
