Knowledge through Old Testament


A) When you find out that you have enemies working against you to destroy and control you, it is not a feeling of joy that comes over a person. It is a feeling of trouble and internal conflict. What shall be done? What shall I do? These are all thoughts and expressions that one will express, and that one was Habakkuk. The Lord was going to allow these Chaldeans to take over the land of Israel, the land of the Jews inheritance. No feelings of joy would be expressed if that was going to happen to any person or group of people.
 b) The Lord is marvelous in his ways of communication with man. He speaks to us in many ways. All of his forms of communication are directed for his children to learn and understand the ways to return back to Him. As children of God we have at our disposal the scriptures in over 90 languages, the Prophet with his Apostles who speaks to us every month and also on a larger scale twice a year. We have the opportunity to have a little-piece of heaven with us once we are baptized, which is known as the Holy Ghost.
The knowledge that God allows each of us to have when we enter this life is very minute. While we gain knowledge and wisdom through our earthly sojourn, we begin to grasp small concepts of eternity. Only After this life, will we truly understand what the Lord expects of each of us.  
I love this gospel, and the blessings that Lord gives me and my family. We are expecting, and I am so blessed that the Lord has blessed us with one of his children.
