Pastor’s Study

Truth is very powerful. When we see things as they really are and accept the truth concerning our lives as Christians and God’s purpose for us, every aspect of our life is affected.

Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, an unashamed workman cutting straight the Word of Truth

Communication with God

The twenty-four elders fell down before the One sitting upon the throne and worshiped the One living into the ages of the ages and cast their victor’s wreaths before the throne saying, “Worthy are You, our Lord and God, to receive the glory and the honor and the inherent ability because You created all things and through Your desirous will we are and were created.” Revelation 4:10-11

And that which if we should ask, we receive from Him, because we guard His commandments and we do the things pleasing before Him. 1 John 3:22

We give thanks to God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, worshiping always concerning you , Colossians 1:3

Therefore, because of this let us continually offer up a sacrifice of praise to the God; that is, the fruit of our lips confessing His name, Hebrews 13:15

If perhaps we should confess our sins, He is faithful and just in order that He should forgive our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness, 1 John 1:9

And the vow of the faith will save the mentally ill and the Lord will raise him up and also the sins he committed will be forgiven him, James 5:15

Be anxious for nothing, but in all by worship […]

Philippians

Originally penned by the Apostle Paul through the leading of the Holy Spirit

This translation is intended to give a clear understanding of the original language, taking into consideration all available manuscripts to reproduce the original letter from Paul to Philippi. The original language should always be considered the only authority by which each word, phrase, and all other parts of speech are based upon. Where additional information is needed to better explain the meaning and use of a word, a footnote has been added.

Because the book of Philippians was originally a letter, it has been returned to its original form to reduce confusion to the reader by breaks in the middle of sentences and concepts caused by the addition of chapters and verses. However, to ensure ease in finding sections within the letter while still avoiding breaking the original form of the letter, the chapters and verses have been superscripted along with the addition of paragraphs and punctuations. Brackets and paratheses are used for clarification within the text.

Written by the Apostle Paul during his first imprisonment in Rome in 64 A.D..

^1.1 Paul and Timothy, servants belonging to Jesus Christ, to all the saints in Christ Jesus, the ones who are in Philippi, with the Bishops and Deacons. ^1.2 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and Lord Jesus Christ. ^1.3 I give thanks to the God upon every remembrance of you, ^1.4 always in all my supplication on behalf of all of you, while making the supplication with joy, ^1.5 on the basis of your fellowship into the gospel from the first […]

The Armor from God

The remaining, my brethren, be caused to be empowered in Christ and in the might of His strength. Clothe yourself with the full armor from God facing your ability to stand facing the methodologies of the slanderer. For our wrestling is not facing blood and flesh, but facing rulers, facing authorities, facing world powers of darkness of this age, facing the spiritually malignant evil in the heavens. Because of this, all of you take up the whole armor from God, in order that all of you should be enabled to stand in the malignantly evil day and having for yourself worked out all to stand. Therefore, all of you stand having girded your loins in truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having bound up the feet with the preparation of the Gospel of peace. Over all taking up the shield of the faith, by which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the malignantly evil one. And to receive the helmet of salvation, and the sword belonging to the Spirit, which is the individual utterances from God, through all communication of worship and supplication, communicating by worship at all times in the spirit and into this same watching with all persistence and supplication concerning all the saints… Ephesians 6:10-18.

The armor from God is a mental process that we go through when under attack from Satan to protect our minds from his methods, by which he seeks to keep our minds from thinking on the things above and influence our actions. Independence from God, Disappointment, Discouragement, Bitterness, Doubt, Spiritual Cowardice, Lying, Pride, An unforgiving spirit, Stealing, Corrupt communication, Busybody, and Gossip […]
