Though I have written on the SALVATION TIME ELEMENT before, the Holy Spirit is leading me to write another expose` using the Book of Philippians as the focal source. In his epistle to the members of the church at Philippi the Apostle Paul tells those people, and us, several things, each of which is of […]

In the first verse of chapter four the Apostle Paul reminds the Gentile converts in Ephesus that they are CALLED to the Lord. Jesus said that many would be called, but few would be chosen. Why would the Lord call someone to join Him, then reject that person? Because they did not answer His call […]

In the first three verses the Apostle Paul who tells the Gentiles of the Ephesian Church about his connection to them. They had heard the truth about him, that he had been called of God to minister to them (Gentiles) in order to draw them to the Son of God Who had died for them […]

In His epistles to the churches under his jurisdiction, the Apostle Paul normally does this first thing. In his letter to the churches located in […]

Beginning in Genesis chapter one verse one we find God (the Word Who came to earth as Jesus of Nazareth–Jn. 1:1-4,14) re-creating the surface of the earth, which, at that time was covered by water due to a universe-wide war that had taken place earlier.
