… for their accomplishments/ actions during each of their times on Earth…
In Acts 3: 1-4a,
One day Peter and John were going up to the temple at the time of prayer–at three in the afternoon. Now a man crippled from birth was being carried to the temple gate called Beautiful, where he was put every day to beg from those going into the temple courts. When he saw Peter and John about to enter, he asked them for money. Peter looked straight at him, as did John (The Bible).
To me, this strange passage can mean or infer that Peter and John just stared blankly at the crippled man on their way to their prayer. OR it can refer to these apostles’ next actions of giving money or offering what they had with them- their soothing advice and love.
It has been said by a non-traditional professor of mine that the Bible is the most famous book of literature. I’ve also heard it announced that this collection of sacred passages is “the most accurate records of ancient history.”
What am I getting at? The bottom line is that it is essentially whatever your underlying focuses are. For instance, are you more focused on “just getting by in school” or “getting a quality education, preparing you for life’s hurdles and roller coaster ride?”
Just something to think about …
