Bible Note: Hi, Christine... Welcome to the forum! It is great to have a representative from Oz. I regularly pray for the believers in your country, and the spread of the gospel there. You have written that you are looking for verses that have to do with pride. A worthy study! May I suggest that you try the "Get Bible Text" control to the right side of the SBF page? You can specify NASB or Amplified; Old, New, or Both Testaments; and a word. In your case you could enter pride and study the verses. Then you might want to do the same search with the word proud, or even prideful. Another good way to do a topical study is to look up the antonym of the word: humble, humility, etc. As I do such studies I make notes. From each verse with that word or phrase, I try to draw conclusions. (Of course, you have to read the verse in context. One can arrive at quite erroneous conclusions by simply pulling out a verse here and there!) For example, I did a topical study on prayer once. As I gathered and reorganized my notes I found I could place my observations under different categories: the purpose of prayer, the Person of prayer, the position of prayer, etc. Great stuff! If you need more help using online Biblical concordance, please let us know. As others read our posts, I am sure they will join me in prayer for you, your family, your service to our Lord, and your study of His word! In Him, Doc |
