Explain


This commandment that I'm commanding you today isn't too much for you, it's not out of your reach. It's not on a high mountain—you don't have to get mountaineers to climb the peak and bring it down to your level and explain it before you can live it. And it's not across the ocean—you don't have to send sailors out to get it, bring it back, and then explain it before you can live it. No. The word is right here and now—as near as the tongue in your mouth, as near as the heart in your chest. Just do it!

“On the seventh day you must explain to your children, ‘I am celebrating what the Lord did for me when I left Egypt.’

Solomon answered all her questions; nothing was too hard for the king to explain to her.

"Do you think you can explain the mystery of God? Do you think you can diagram God Almighty? God is far higher than you can imagine, far deeper than you can comprehend… He sees through vain pretensions, spots evil a long way off— no one pulls the wool over his eyes! Hollow men, hollow women, will wise up about the same time mules learn to talk.

I was chosen to explain to everyone this mysterious plan that God, the Creator of all things, had kept secret from the beginning.

Instead, you must worship Christ as Lord of your life. And if someone asks about your Christian hope, always be ready to explain it.

Deuteronomy 30:11 Exodus 13:8 1 Kings 10:3 Job 11:7 Ephesians 3:9 1 Peter 3:15

Only God has the right to define what’s wrong.
