1 Thessalonians 4:15-18

   For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.  For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:  Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air and so shall we ever be with the Lord.  Wherefore comfort one another with these words.     

​​​​​​​2 Timothy 4:7-8
For I am already being poured out as a drink offering, and the time of my departure is at hand. I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Finally, there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give to me on that Day, and not to me only but also to all who have loved His appearing

Ten Commandments in school? Georgia House unanimously votes yes

Ten Commandments in school? Georgia House unanimously votes yes

By Richard Fausset

February 29, 2012, 7:58 a.m.
Reporting from Atlanta —
In Georgia, students in public schools could soon be regularly reminded that the God of Israel commands that they shalt not make any graven image.

And that they shalt not covet their neighbor's wife. Nor his manservant. Nor his maidservant. Nor his ox.

Those, of course, are two of the Ten Commandments, and a new bill picking up steam in the statehouse in Atlanta would allow human history's most famous Top 10 List to be displayed in all Georgia government buildings, including schools.

The Associated Press reports that the bill, sponsored by Republican state Rep. Tommy Benton, passed the state House unanimously Tuesday on a 161-0 vote, and is well-positioned to pass the state Senate.

Benton, a retired middle-school teacher, argues that the commandments are of great educational and historical value, and a key influence on the American legal system. His bill notes that a "basic knowledge of American constitutional history is important to the formation of civic virtue in our society."

The bill technically expands an existing Georgia law that now allows the commandments to be displayed only in courthouses and judicial buildings to apply to all state government buildings, but only when displayed along with eight other documents, including the Mayflower Compact and the Magna Carta, as part of a "Foundations of American Law and Government" display. (To be fair, it's not clear if the existing displays get into the details about the maidservant, manservant and ox, though those are clearly delineated in Exodus 20:17.)

Texas Sue,

Sounds like encouraging news for the school symstem but especially for the students whom attend.

I think that's what's missing in many schools today, the 10 Commandments, & The Lord's Prayer!!!

I applaud that they some what seem to be going back into the right direction!!!

Blessings!

I totally agree with you there, Val...& T/Sue.

Considering the shooting that happened in the cafeteria in some high school (I forgot where). This commandment--Thou shalt not kill...would be most appropriate there.

Maranatha!
