weapons of our warfare

thought this was really kool and stated so clearly;

2Cr 10:4 (For the weapons of our warfare [are] not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;)
2Cr 10:5 Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;

Jer 1:9 Then the LORD put forth his hand, **and touched my mouth.** And the LORD said unto me, Behold, **I have put my words in thy mouth**.
Jer 1:10 **See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms**, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant.

The weapon is the word in our mouths. There's that tongue again. See in verse 10 all the things this weapon does.

2Cr 13:10 Therefore I write these things being absent, lest being present I should use **sharpness**, according to the power which the Lord hath given me to edification, and not to destruction.

See this as directly connecting to the sharp sword, the Lord placing this sword of the word in Paul's tongue.

Very Happy

Isa 2:4 And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.

1Cr 1:10 Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and [that] there be no divisions among you; but [that] ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.

Mar 16:17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;could it be that the new tongues represent the swords and spears being changed (new) into plowshares and pruninghooks?

from warfare to gardening... Very Happy

Jhn 20:15 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? whom seekest thou? She, supposing him to be the gardener, saith unto him, Sir, if thou have borne him hence, tell me where thou hast laid him, and I will take him away.

I don't think she was too far off LOL...

Gen 2:8 And the LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had formed.

need more fruit....LOLOL
