The Gospels
are not TO us!
However, there
is still much within those Gospels FOR us!
XXXIX |
Highlights from the Gospels showing all that is falsely applied today!
Here is how To read the Gospels
for 'Paul-Following' Christians
Jesus is warning the Disciples about their own persecution
that was about to come;
the Great Commission - and if He was accepted, it was
onward into the Tribulation;
thus we have all the Trib books (Hebrews
to Jude) AFTER Paul's books!

We will then begin the year next week with a step by step - verse by verse study of what it means to rightly divide the word of truth by following Paul's teachings - and how to present them to others (and learn them ourselves!)
1. Read the complete Bible quote in your Bible.
2. Put an A or P in the blank before the quote to signify your choice of
the Greek word used, AGAPE or PHILEO.
3. The 'scholarly' answer is in ( ) at the end of each verse.
