Acts 11:22 – 30 “Then tidings of these things came unto the ears of the church which was in Jerusalem: and they sent forth Barnabas, that he should go as far as Antioch. 23 Who, when he came, and had seen the grace of God, was glad, and exhorted them all, that with purpose of heart they would cleave unto the Lord. 24 For he was a good man, and full of the Holy Ghost and of faith: and much people was added unto the Lord. 25 Then departed Barnabas to Tarsus, for to seek Saul: 26...

God 537 – It Is Written You can follow along with the Scriptures and my notes as I read them. The writers of The Word of God, The Bible, wrote God's Word over a period of time, over 1,500 years. All types of people wrote God's Word. Let's look at how we got that wonderful Word of God. Let's see what God has delivered to us through these many writers of the Scriptures. 2 Timothy 3:16 “All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:” Doctrine is Right teaching for right believing. You know and...

God 536 – P.S. I Love You You can follow along with the Scriptures and my notes as I read them. At the beginning of Romans, Paul writes to the Romans and lets them know that he loves them. He desires to see them, desires to help them, desires to give them spiritual gifts, and wants to be a service to them. He's really demonstrating that he loves them Romans 1:7 – 21 “To all that be in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ. 8 First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is spoken of...

Romans 8:4 – 17 ”That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh [flesh and carnal, mean the same thing], but after the Spirit. 5 For they that are after the flesh do mind [think] the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit [think] the things of the Spirit. 6 For to be carnally [flesh and carnal, mean the same thing] minded [thinking] is death; but to be spiritually minded [thinking] is life and peace. 7 Because the carnal...

God 534 – Believing Versus Worry, Doubt, and Fear You can follow along with the Scriptures and my notes as I read them. I've been thinking about believing versus worrying, doubting, and fearing. We know how important it is for us to believe and trust God, but one thing that tries to destroy that is fear. We're going to learn how to defeat fear. Mark 11:22 “And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.” A simple translation is to believe and trust God. Mark 11:23 & 24 “For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast...

I've been reading a book by Tom Kelso. “I would not have you ignorant.” At the Clergy and Elder meeting a couple of weeks ago, we were asked to do a teaching on, "I would not have you ignorant.

539 – My Gospel
Follow along with the Scriptures and my notes as I read them.
This podcast expands on a series I just posted on my website about "Paul of the Bible." It is a 13-session series on Paul's ministry and a review of his writings. This weekly podcast reinforces that and adds a bit more information.
Romans 1:9 “For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers;”
Romans 2:16 “In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel.”
1 Corinthians 9:17 & 18 “For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward: but if against my will, a dispensation of the gospel is committed unto me. 18 What is my reward then? Verily that, when I preach the gospel, I may make the gospel of Christ without charge, [Over Charge] that I abuse not my power in the gospel.”
1 Corinthians 9:9 – 11 “For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? 10 Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. 11 If we have sown unto you spiritual things, is it a great thing if we shall reap your carnal things?”
Ephesians 6:18 – 20 “Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints; 19 And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel, 20 For which I am an ambassador in bonds: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.
The mystery is of Paul's Gospel.
Philippians 1:7 “Even as it is meet for me to think this of you all, because I have you in my heart; inasmuch as both in my bonds, and in the defence and confirmation of the gospel, ye all are partakers of my grace.”
Philippians 4:3 “And I intreat thee also, true yokefellow, help those women which laboured with me in the gospel, with Clement also, and with other my fellowlabourers, whose names are in the book of life.”
1 Timothy 1:11 & 12 “According to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust. 12 And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who hath enabled me, for that he counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry;”
2 Timothy 2:8 “Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead according to my gospel:”
2 Peter 3:13 _ 16 “Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. 14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless. 15 And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom [Revelation] given unto him hath written unto you; 16 As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, [twist around] as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.”
Tell me what you think about Paul's writings, and I'll tell you how far you will go spiritually.
May God Bless you Abundantly
