Colossians, 1-2 Thessalonians, 1-2 Timothy, Titus, Philemon by Peter J. Gorday,Thomas C. Oden Pdf

Christianity Today Book of the Year For the early church fathers, certain passages in the shorter letters of St. Paul proved particularly important in doctrinal disputes and practical church matters. Pivotal in controversies with the Arians and the Gnostics, the most commented-on christological text in these letters was Colossians 1:15-20, where Jesus is declared "the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation." The fathers found ample support scattered throughout the Pastorals for the divinity of the Son and the Spirit and for the full union of humanity and divinity in the "one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus" (1 Timothy 2:5). These commentators also looked to the Pastorals for important teaching on ethics and church life. Chief among the Eastern commentators and widely excerpted throughout this volume is John Chrysostom, praised for his pastoral insight. Other Greek commentators cited include Theodoret of Cyr, Theodore of Mopsuestia, Severian of Gabala, Ignatius of Antioch, Justin Martyr, Irenaeus, Clement of Alexandria, Athanasius, Basil the Great, Gregory of Nazianzus, and Gregory of Nyssa. Western commentators include Augustine, Ambrosiaster, Pelagius, Jerome, Hippolytus, Tertullian, Novatian, Cyprian of Carthage, Hilary of Poitiers, and Ambrose. Of particular interest for their ascetical and devotional insight are works from Syrian and Egyptian churches, including Aphrahat, Ephrem the Syrian, Isaac of Nineveh, and Philoxenus of Mabbug. This Ancient Christian Commentary on Scripture volume opens up a treasure house of ancient wisdom that allows these faithful witnesses, some appearing here in English translation for the first time, to speak with eloquence and intellectual acumen to the church today.

1-2 Thessalonians, 1-2 Timothy, Titus, Philemon by Lee Gatiss,Bradley G. Green Pdf

"Since we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so, through Jesus, God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep." (1 Thess 4:14). The epistles of the New Testament provide unparalleled insight into the realities of the life of the early church, guidance for those called to lead the church, and comfort in the face of pressing theological questions. Among those letters are 1 and 2 Thessalonians, which address questions about the expected return of Christ, the pastoral epistles of 1 and 2 Timothy and Titus, written to two of Paul's coworkers who were overseeing early churches, and Philemon, which concerns the relationship between a slave and his master. The Protestant Reformers of the sixteenth century also found wisdom and guidance in these letters. For example, Martin Luther reminded the Christians of his day that Paul had encouraged believers "not to sorrow over the dead as others who have no hope, but to comfort each other with God's Word as having a certain hope of life and of the resurrection of the dead." In this volume of the Reformation Commentary on Scripture, Lee Gatiss and Bradley Green guide readers through a diversity of early modern commentary on the epistles of 1 and 2 Thessalonians, 1 and 2 Timothy, Titus, and Philemon. Readers will hear from familiar voices and discover lesser-known figures from a variety of theological traditions, including Lutherans, Reformed, Radicals, Anglicans, and Roman Catholics. Drawing upon a variety of resources—including commentaries, sermons, treatises, and confessions—much of which appears here for the first time in English, this volume provides resources for contemporary preachers, enables scholars to better understand the depth and breadth of Reformation commentary, and seeks to bring guidance and comfort in the midst of today's challenges.

A Commentary on The Personal Letters by David Pawson Pdf

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.

The Resurrected Jesus by David Limbaugh,Christen Limbaugh Bloom Pdf

NATIONAL BESTSELLER! The Resurrected, Conquering Jesus In the fifth and final installment of his bestselling Jesus series, David Limbaugh digs into the New Testament epistles with passion and imagination, showing that the testimony of Jesus’ earliest followers provides irrefutable proof of His resurrection. Inspired by God and penned by the apostles, the epistles were written to the first Christians to proclaim the divinity of Christ and to encourage them to persevere through persecution, famine, sickness, and doubt. On a lawyerly quest for truth, Limbaugh looks behind these biblical texts, exploring the lives of their authors, who included some of those closest to the Lord—his most intimate friends, Peter and John, and his own kinsmen James and Jude. The result is an unforgettable encounter with Jesus. The Resurrected Jesus speaks to the struggles the church faces today, strengthening believers and challenging doubters with the eyewitness accounts of the messengers who travelled far and wide to proclaim the resurrected Christ.

Life-study of Thessalonians, Timothy, Titus, and Philemon by Witness Lee Pdf

Paul's two Epistles to the Thessalonians were written to a young church with young believers. These Epistles are very precious, for they render particular help concerning the young Christian life and church life. In the Life-study of 1 and 2 Thessalonians, Witness Lee presents the basic elements in Paul's word to the Thessalonians concerning living a holy life for the church life. Paul's Epistles to Timothy, Titus, and Philemon, written to more experienced believers, cover God’s economy regarding the church. In the Life-study of these books, Witness Lee presents crucial points in these Epistles concerning God's economy, the inoculation of the church against decline, the maintenance of the order of the church, and the believers' equal status in the new man.

A Bible Study on Thessalonians, Timothy, Titus and Philemon by Paul a. Light Pdf

At age nineteen, Paul Light began his ministry in evangelism and pulpit supply. He married on his 25th birthday in 1952 and eventually had two children. His first pastorate began in 1953 at Jellico, Tennessee as a bi-vocational pastor. He served there for sixteen years, during which time they built a new church building. It took nine years to complete and was debt free. In 1969 he moved his family to Cincinnati, Ohio, where he took a job as an accountant. About seven months later he became a pastor in Latonia, Kentucky where he ministered for 21 years. During that time the church building was completely renovated. Beginning in 1979 Pastor Light took a total of seven tour groups to the Holy Land. Soon after that he began missionary tours to different countries, some lasting as long as six months. The tours included preaching, building, and evangelism. His specialty, however, was teaching in Bible Colleges and Seminaries. He has made at least 25 missionary tours. Even at age 86, he is still engaged in missionary tours of teaching. During the past thirty years, Dr. Light has been writing Study Guides and Commentaries on nearly all of the books of the Bible. Some of these are variations of approaches to Bible Books such as his Comparative Gospels, the Miracles of Elijah and Elisha, The Apocalyptic Books (Daniel and Revelation) and Characters of the Old Testament. He uses his books as teaching texts for the classes he teaches both abroad and in the United States.Enjoy your Bible study of 1 & 2 Thessalonians, 1 & 2 Timothy, Titus and Philemon.
