Download or read book Reading Paul s Letters to Individuals written by Hulitt Gloer and published by Smyth & Helwys Pub. This book was released on 2008 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this volume, Gloer and Stepp interpret Paul's letter to Philemon and the Pastoral Epistles-Titus and 1 & 2 Timothy. Philemon tells a simple and straight-forward story of Philemon and his escaped slave Onesimus. How can the story of an escaped slave returned to his master hold any meaning for believers today? Indeed, in Philemon we encounter a practical working out of Paul's foundational theological ideas-grace, faith, atonement, reconciliation, freedom in Christ, new creation, and the ethical life that stems from these. In their study of the Pastoral Epistles, Gloer and Stepp describe the continuation of Paul's missionary work, the internal and external conflicts, and Paul's gradual withdrawal from the work that has defined his life. In Paul's absence, how will the churches address the conflicts and persecution? They survive and thrive by trusting the successors that Paul provided for them. Like other volumes in this unique series, "Reading Paul's Letters to Individuals" focuses on comprehending the major themes of the epistles and their relationship to the understanding of the early Christian communities. With the focus on the work in its entirety rather than a verse-by-verse methodology, this volume will appeal to the professional and nonprofessional alike, as well as to college and seminary students.

Download or read book Titus Philemon Book II written by Randy Green and published by . This book was released on 2020-07-04 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The "Heavenly Citizens" series serves as a tool to help the Christian understand not only what the Bible teaches us, but also how to study the Bible. Explaining what the Bible teaches is like giving someone a fish to eat. Teaching him how to study the Bible is like teaching someone how to fish so he can feed himself. Both approaches are essential to developing spiritual maturity."Titus & Philemon" is the twenty-first volume in the "Heavenly Citizens" series. The Apostle Paul begins his letter to Titus by presenting his credentials: he is a bond-servant of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ. Paul's ministry is for the faith of those chosen of God. Titus is Paul's true child in a common faith. Paul made Titus the chief pastor of the Churches of Crete, through his authority as an apostle of King Jesus. Crete is an island due south of the Aegean Sea, which is the sea between Greece and Turkey.Paul emphasizes to Titus the necessity to preach and teach the Word of God, and to be sure to avoid stirring man's words into the message. The danger from adding man's words to God's Word makes it essential for every pastor to be sure he preaches only God's Word. The Bible is must reading multiple times for every pastor, before he is allowed to step foot in a pulpit.Microwave Bible might be quick, but it can never nourish a growing boy into a spiritual man of God. So for a thorough understanding of these issues, we invite you to come inside and join the Bible class with us. We plan to delve into each and every detail and get to the bottom of it. After all, we do want our church today to be spiritually vibrant and fecund, don't we? What better way to accomplish this, than to enjoy a thorough study of the Apostle Paul's "Letter to Titus".Paul's "Letter to Philemon" is a personal letter to a church leader in Colosse. Paul never met Philemon, nor had he visited Colosse at the time of writing this letter. While under house arrest in Rome and waiting to plead his case before Emperor Nero, Paul was visited by a slave named Onesimus, whose master was Philemon. Paul led Onesimus to Jesus for salvation and then reared him to spiritual maturity. Onesimus on his part ministered to Paul in his confinement.In due time Onesimus came to realize that breaking the law was not being a good witness for Jesus. With a letter of recommendation from the Apostle Paul to Master Philemon, Slave Onesimus returned to Colosse to serve his master again. How does this jibe with contemporary culture which sees racism here, there, and everywhere? Come and see. Join our study with us.The approach for "Titus & Philemon", and for every volume in the "Heavenly Citizens" series, is to teach the student the meaning of Scripture. We also teach him or her how to study the Bible on his/her own. We do this in two ways: we provide a few rules by which to govern our Bible study, and we demonstrate by example how to study the Bible. Experience is an outstanding teacher; so we practice the rules for Bible study in our books. By walking through the Bible with us, the reader experiences firsthand what our method of study is like.We believe the student will come out of our studies with both an understanding of the Bible and the ability to truthfully understand the Bible on his/her own. The path lies before you. Walk through the gate and join the journey with us! And may the blessings of the Lord Jesus Christ be yours in abundance.

Download or read book A Commentary on 1 2 Timothy Titus Philemon written by David Pawson and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2015-09-08 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paul's letters to Timothy and Titus have sometimes been labelled his 'Pastoral Epistles'. Scholars have assigned them to a later period in Paul's ministry, when churches he founded were more settled in structure, perhaps after release from his first imprisonment in Rome and during a second (which may be true). Others postulate a later pseudonymous writer, claiming to be Paul (which may not be true). The fact is that all Paul's letters are 'pastoral' in content, full of paternal care and concern for his converts and their fellowships. What really distinguishes these is that they are addressed to individuals rather than churches. So it seems more appropriate to classify them as his 'Personal' correspondence. We can therefore expect them to reveal more of his personal relationship with his and their reactions to his delegated responsibilities, giving helpers their unique interest and relevance. It also enables us to include the brief note to Philemon, whose importance in the New Testament tends to be overlooked.

Download or read book First and Second Timothy Titus Philemon written by Terence J. Keegan and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 2016-12-01 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First and Second Timothy and Titus are designated Pastoral Letters because they deal with leadership and organizational issues of the early Christian community. Probably written after the death ofPaul, they nevertheless express what Paul himself would have and could have written to community leaders. Second Timothy gives the greatest amount of biographical material we have aboutPaul. The Letter to Philemon, a miniature but authentic Pauline jewel, is a masterpiece of persuasion regarding a slave's freedom. Terence J. Keegan's perceptive commentaries on these precious remnants of first century Christianity provide information and insight regarding the gradual growth of the church. There are pertinent lessons here for today's shepherds and their flocks. Terence J. Keegan, OP, serves as the executive vice president and treasurer at Providence College, Providence, Rhode Island.
