This is a transition chapter. Like Revelation 12, it could well stand alone and be read apart from the prophetic mainstream that flowed from the pen of Isaiah. Similarly, it, like Revelation 12, has elements of an "overview" of spiritual history as it relates to God's people. It is as if the prophet wanted his readers to have the "big picture."
Study of Grace, Each and every Christian needs to hear the words Grow Up. Milk is no longer enough. Many times you have heard someone say, "Just grow up." They were saying, in essence, that a more adult response or mature reasoning was needed for this or that situation.
We are of the same mind and heart, though language, custom and nationality may separate us. We share those Scriptures about "sameness" which are discussed in this study. The mindset which inhabits one also inhabits the others. We are submitted to Christ and are dedicated to pleasing Him. He is bringing those of His mind together.
In today's world, thought captivity is a must!! Flashed on screens and inundated through media, our minds are subjected to outrageous projections and ideas. Before long, their (the world's) thoughts become ours and we find ourselves playing "their game." Such is not unique to our day, however. When one considers Paul, who lived over 2,000 years ago and was a graduate of Gamaliel's highest learning academy, it becomes clear why he would teach thought control. He was steeped in
Evidently, exercising sensitivity to the things of the Spirit takes time and spiritual maturity to apprehend, according to Hebrews 5:14. In other words, spiritual sensitivity becomes a goal for the saint and although it takes time to learn, it is a worthwhile pursuit. I dare say, fewer and fewer are seeking this characteristic for their spiritual resume?.
Are we heading to The Road to Captivity? Is this "Past" "Present" or "Future" This book will open your eyes. Uncanny parallels appear in Jeremiah's words between his day and this one, making his work a spiritual necessity for this time. One of the primary elements throughout his book is a principle similar to one used by Carl Jung in his initial studies of Psychiatry and his beliefs
I want to begin this study by looking into a passage in 2 Kings. The biblical account shows the frustration of the King of Syria in trying to do battle with Israel, because Elisha was telling Israel the battle plans of their enemy before they were executed.
Romans is a book filled with quotable passages, some of the most famous to be found in the New Testament. The Roman Road to salvation is clearly one of the most utilized segments of Scripture for evangelism and for introducing the plan of salvation.
It is this fellowship by which Saints readily identify one another - I lunched with two of God's dignitaries, both from Cambodia, both whose hearts had endured great sorrow and grief because of tremendous personal loss.
The Kingdom of God - He taught that Jesus preached the gospel of the Kingdom of God only. Every miracle, each Holy Ghost inspired action, every confrontation with established religion, every session with His Disciples sprang from the foundation of "The Kingdom of God."
