The Almighty tells us that the only way to understand His doctrine is to be “weaned from the milk and drawn from the breast.”  Upon coming to Christ, we are all babes in need of spiritual “milk”–the ABC’s of the Christian walk.  God uses His ministry to feed newly called members of His spiritual family.  […]

From the previous posting we know that spiritual knowledge refers to the Word of God.  Note that God refers to what He has written in His Holy Bible in the singular–Word, not Words, meaning that He presents them as one entity to be accepted, believed and obeyed totally or not at all.  The Apostle James […]

We have all heard the age-old adage that: “Practice makes perfect.”  Not so, says a famous basketball coach who claims that “Only perfect practice makes perfect.”  And he is right.  In the story about Jesus and the rich man who had asked Him how to receive eternal life, Jesus answered the singular question in two […]

In Ephesians 4 the Apostle Paul pulls his message to the Church of Ephesus together into three compact statements that, if taken as one singular entity, would become a miniature Bible.  In 4:4-6 he destroys the entire concept of Catholicism and Protestantism, as well as the Protestant denomination system, each one a supposed improvement to […]

One of the “fine prints” deliberately avoided by Bible owners concerns God’s command for WORKS relative to inheriting  eternal life.  One of the passages used, and not used, relative to WORKS is Ephesians 2:8-10.  Let us examine ALL of those two verses to glean God’s Truth: “For by grace you are (being) saved through faith, […]

In the second chapter of Paul’s letter to the church at Ephesus he specifically addresses the fact that the Gentiles had been given the same opportunity to qualify for salvation as had the Israelites.  All of the churches Paul founded and to whom he wrote His epistles were comprised of Gentiles.  In the focal passages […]

In his letter to the saints at Ephesus the Apostle Paul made several statements that traditionally have been ignored.  As stated on several occasions, God has appointed me to draw attention to His rejected Truths so that those who call themselves by His name can come to believe and obey them and thereby receive not […]

One of Satan’s most effective weapons with which he keeps church people under his power is Biblical ignorance.  He accomplishes this by hiding God’s “fine print” (90% of the Bible) from them.  Like the pickpocket who draws his victim’s attention away from his pocket while lifting his wallet, Satan draws his victim’s attention to God’s […]

The first verse in the Apostle Paul’s letter to the church at Ephesus is directly tied to Christ’s warning in Matthew 24:4,5.  When asked what would be the sign of His imminent return to earth, Jesus issued a stern warning: “Beware lest any man deceive you, for many will come in My name, proclaiming that […]

In the second chapter of the book written by the Prophet Joel we find God telling him to write this: “And it will come to pass afterward that I (God) will pour out of My Spirit upon all flesh ….” (vs 28).  The prophet wrote his book between 795 and 755 B.C.  Some 800 years […]
