INTRODUCTION

Much like a verse of the day that other sites give (Bible Gateway, You Version, Blue Letter Bible, etc.) Time For Providence will differ by giving a mystery of the day. A mystery for investigation to solve scripture takes long hours and odd times. I prepare the mystery using a Thompson chain-reference bible—you need one in your library. The awesome thing about this practice is utilizing the chain-reference for learning how all the points of scripture are interwoven and connected.

This is your fellow SI (Scriptural Investigator) speaking: this post includes affiliate links. If you click and purchase I hope to receive a small commission at no extra cost to you. I recommend resources relevant to mystery and the gospel work of faith.

The time and resources you invest into this practice will not return void or unfruitful, but will cause to reap what is sown the eternal reward. In addition to your chain-reference bible, a couple important items you should have for success in solving the mysteries are a journal and pen; Scriptural Investigator’s notate the details otherwise missed by the untrained, conducting interviews with biblical names (Jesus, Moses and the prophet Elijah, even Enoch or the archangel Michael) and the Church.

Document all relevant information, think outside the perspective of your evidence board. Pull out your laptop or device, have your bible, get a journal and pen, invite a neighbor or detain a gospel believer, because below is a scripture crime you need to investigate and solve!


CRIME SCENE

The Scripture below is our lead in the investigation. What can we learn from it?

  • Psalms 57:10
    For your steadfast love is great to the heavens, your faithfulness to the clouds. [ESV]

If you have a chain-reference bible, the topics below are clues.

  • Mercy – a form of love, especially directed toward the needy or unworthy
    • Divine
    • Forgives Sin

THE MYSTERY

When you become aware of your sin for the need of salvation, the richness of God’s mercy and love provides life to make you alive with Christ—by grace you have been saved.

Comment the Scripture that solves this mystery? [book chapter : verse/s].

JOURNAL

Even as I am dead in my trespasses am made alive with Christ because the grace of God has saved me to be alive with Him. The freedom is surreal!


Hi, my name is Nathan R. Dooley, and if you’re interested in mystery, philosophy, psychology and criminal justice genres, like me, then I’m excited to have brought you this MYSTERY OF THE DAY where you will experience the verse of the day in a way like Sherlock Homes experiences a case that needs solving. There is a hope and a plan to expand this project, but just like Sherlock Holmes needed Dr. Watson, this project will need resources that provide video content as the next addition to this service, with more idea-plans uh brewing. (Lord willing).

Please consider blessing this work over coffee or a cup of tea?
