Bible Commentary

Philemon is one of the shortest books of the New Testament. This small letter is one of the Prison Epistles, written by the Apostle Paul at about the same time as Ephesians and Colossians and may have been carried back to Philemon by the same person and at the same time as Colossians and Ephesians. It is also considered to be one of the purest. This study will take us through the Book of Philemon with a magnifying glass; sometimes a microscope, as we discover practical insights into Christian and especially pastoral ethics.

Have you ever wondered how so many religious groups, even those who claim to be "bible-based," have so many interpretations of the Bible's meaning? They can't all be right, so what to do? One course is to give up and consider the Bible too confusing or contradictory. Another would be to let the church you like tell you what the Scriptures mean without question and assume all the others must be wrong. However, if you would much rather find out how to properly interpret the Bible, with the help of independent and objective scholarship, this book is for you!

An entertaining, addictive listen that could literally change your entire worldview. If you subscribe to what The Captivated Audience: Hoaxes, Illusions and the Biblical Earth proposes, it will warrant you to forsake NASA and some of the scientific theories that we have been indoctrinated to believe as inherent truths. Only you can awaken from this Masonic-induced hypnosis that we have been under, and become aware that you have been an unconscious member of the "captivated audience."

Losing a pet is an experience that leaves a gaping hole in our hearts. I find that just talking about a rainbow bridge doesn't really help. It is a beautiful thought, but I am a Bible-believing Christian, so that led me to look up all references to rainbow in the Bible. Although there is no mention of a "rainbow bridge," what I found was that the rainbow covenant God made with Noah wasn't just to mankind but to every living creature that was with him! It was a covenant between God and all of his creation! God made an eternal, binding promise to animals!

Il popolo Ebreo era disperso in tutto il mondo, vivendo in diaspora. E per tutti questi anni, vivendo nelle terre straniere tra le culture e le religioni diverse, non ha perso la fede, la propria cultura e le tradizioni. 1878 anni sono tanti per dimenticare l`appartenenza nazionale. Gli Ebrei no! Non vi sembra una cosa eccezionale?

God has many ways of teaching us. Jesus taught by example. Men looked at how he lived, and decided to walk that way also. He also taught by precept, speaking directly to people, in a way we might call teaching today. But his favorite way of teaching was through the use of the parable. He loved to tell stories—stories with spiritual meanings. "In the fall of 1987," Jamie said, "I visited Israel with a camera crew. We had obtained permission from the Israeli government to set up cameras at ten of the sites where Jesus told his best-known parables.

The book of Jude is a study of the church's responsibility to acknowledge the parameters of fellowship. It is an excellent source of information regarding the identity of the church, fellowship, and church discipline.

Historicism is the method of interpretation that actually developed out of the Protestant Reformation, which is the reason why, to quote one critic, the “view was so widely held, that for a long time it was called the Protestant view”. That alone should pique interest to a deeper study of the view.
