The Roller-Coaster of Life #2

Wednesday, June 26, 2024

“God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord” (1 Corinthians 1:9 KJV).

In this roller coaster called “life,” who is truly “faithful?”

Using secular historical data, we can say Paul first arrived in Corinth circa A.D. 50–51. According to Roman records, that was Gallio’s brief term as deputy or governor of Achaia or southern Greece (see Acts 18:12). It was around this period of Acts chapter 18 that Paul wins the Corinthians to the Lord Jesus Christ as their personal Saviour. He teaches them the Word of God for nearly two years (verses 11,18).

Eventually, he moves on to Ephesus (western Turkey) before concluding his second apostolic journey by returning to Antioch of Syria (verses 19-22). As he launches his third apostolic journey in verse 23, he re-visits Ephesus, wherein he resides for three years (all of chapter 19; see Acts 20:17,31). It would have been during the opening verse of Acts chapter 20, his final days in Ephesus, that he composed 1 Corinthians (see 1 Corinthians 16:8,9). In other words, when he wrote 1 Corinthians, as many as six years could have passed since he first preached the Gospel of Grace to them (1 Corinthians 15:1-4).

Stated another way, the Corinthians have been members of the Church the Body of Christ for at least five years. Alas, as we study 1 Corinthians, it is apparent they have not grown and developed into mature Bible believers. Such prolonged exposure to sound doctrine should have brought their thoughts and lives much further than where they are currently situated. Observe chapter 3, verses 1-3: “And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual [led by the Spirit of God], but as unto carnal [fleshly], even as unto babes in Christ. I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able to bear it, neither yet now are ye able. For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men?” The Corinthians have not continued in the edification process, so they are malnourished, spiritual babies who still cannot tolerate solid spiritual food….

The Roller-Coaster of Life #1

Tuesday, June 25, 2024

“God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord” (1 Corinthians 1:9 KJV).

In this roller coaster called “life,” who is truly “faithful?”

Once, I had an extremely pleasant day. Browsing in a store, I found exactly what items I had been seeking… and even some favorite products I never would have expected there. I quickly made those purchases, going on my way thankful and ecstatic. Also, I was able to keep an important appointment despite the other errands I was running. Things were still going according to plan! However, as the day wore on, my circumstances changed most drastically. I did not make contact with someone as I had desperately intended. By nighttime, inclement weather in my neighborhood led to a 12-hour power outage. Also, I began feeling quite ill.

As the next couple of weeks unfolded, life was really trying for me because of other problems. My illness continued, despite medication. Eventually, I had to deal with fixing some broken items, plus several other hassles, including a couple of incidents and accidents at home that resulted in me sustaining injuries (one of which could have caused my relocation to Heaven!). My work and ministry schedules were severely disrupted. It was chaos!

During my trials and tribulations, I had a phone conversation with a Christian friend whose loved one had just died. He was in absolute emotional turmoil. Also, he was aggravated due to major technical issues with his electronic devices. I informed him of my own struggles. Concerned about his initial remarks, I did strongly caution him not to let his emotions get the best of him. Nevertheless, he confessed to me that he was no longer thinking properly because of those revolting emotions. I was quite surprised he actually sounded like a lost person, an unbeliever, as I continued to listen to his incessant complaints. I simply could not fathom those blasphemous, heretical words I was hearing from his lips. He was maligning God! More recently, the dear brother is still spiraling downward emotionally and spiritually in the roller-coaster of life, just like the Corinthians.

Perhaps it is time we be instructed from today’s Scripture….

Tokens #10

Monday, June 24, 2024

“And God said, This is the token of the covenant which I make between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations:…” (Genesis 9:12 KJV).

What are “tokens” in Scripture?

Reading about the numerous tokens in the Bible, we should remember they are things serving as signs, indications, proofs, representations, or evidences of other things. Something intangible (cannot be touched) or invisible (cannot be seen) has a corresponding sign that can be touched and/or seen. In fact, did you know “token” is etymologically related to “teach?” A lesson is being imparted, information to be learned is being offered, data is being chronicled in a clear, understandable way. This is especially true in a Jewish context, for “the Jews require a sign” (1 Corinthians 1:22).

Though we may choose otherwise, the God of the Bible does not want us to be ignorant. He wishes we would be informed, for He Himself knows the Christian life will not operate on the basis of ignorance because it cannot operate on the basis of ignorance. No one will comprehend anything in the Bible unless they are willing to be taught of God the Holy Spirit. We do not have to be confused about the Scriptures—though most are. This is not God’s fault. Our Bible understanding does not have to be imperfect—yet it often is. Neither is this God’s fault.

If we have a question about a King James Bible word, phrase, or verse, it would be far more advantageous if we gave it the benefit of the doubt as opposed to changing it because of our limited knowledge. As Bible students, as “workmen” (2 Timothy 2:15), we should eagerly endure an unbelievable amount of trouble to find an answer, a definition, a reason. Let us see how our 1611 translators handled those terms in other places. We ought to compare, contrast, and evaluate whatever information we can collect. It might take months, years, or even decades to research a matter to conclusion or resolution. Or, we might not obtain an answer until we get to Heaven. As long as we can tell the Lord we made an effort to grow and develop into mature believers, that being a token of our sincere pursuit of the truth, we know His praise is certain.

Tokens #8

Saturday, June 22, 2024

“And God said, This is the token of the covenant which I make between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations:…” (Genesis 9:12 KJV).

What are “tokens” in Scripture?

As touching suffering in this the Dispensation of the Grace of God, two “tokens” passages are found. Firstly, Philippians chapter 1: “[28] And in nothing terrified by your adversaries: which is to them an evident token of perdition, but to you of salvation, and that of God. [29] For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for his sake; [30] Having the same conflict which ye saw in me, and now hear to be in me.” The “token” (or “evident token,” as in a sign or evidence) of their looming eternal damnation to Hell and the Lake of Fire (“perdition”) is these “adversaries” are persecuting God’s people. Yet, the “token” (or “evident token,” as in a sign or evidence) of their imminent eternal deliverance into Heaven (“salvation”) is how these believers suffer for Christ’s sake—that is, they are His people living in a hostile (unbelieving) world.

Secondly, there is the “token” (or “manifest token,” as in a sign or proof) in 2 Thessalonians chapter 1: “[4] So that we ourselves glory in you in the churches of God for your patience and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations that ye endure: [5] Which is a manifest token of the righteous judgment of God, that ye may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which ye also suffer: [6] Seeing it is a righteous thing with God to recompense tribulation to them that trouble you; [7] And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels, [8] In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: [9] Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power;….” God will be fair in bringing saints to Heaven (in spite of their earthly troubles), and punishing the lost who abused them during their earthly troubles.

There is more to say about “tokens” in Scripture….

Father: A Godly Man

Sunday, June 16, 2024

“And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord” (Ephesians 6:4 KJV).

Since today is Father’s Day, we dedicate today’s devotional to the godly (Christian) fathers.

What is a godly father? Oftentimes, fathers are either too authoritative (very strict) or too carefree (little to no concern for their children). According to the Bible (today’s Scripture in particular), fathers must have a balance between setting boundaries and enforcing them, and refraining from being a heartless tyrant.

  • On one hand, the Christian father is to “bring [his children] up in the nurture of the Lord.” “Nurture” is simply defined as “caring for and encouraging their growth or development.” All too often, fathers (sadly) ignore this, usually being too rough, or even, apathetic (unconcerned).
  • On the other hand, the Christian father is to “bring [his children] up in the admonition of the Lord.” “Admonition” is simply defined as “authoritative counsel or warning.” He is to lovingly guide them in life, instructing them from God’s Word rightly divided.

A father is not simply one who procreates. God’s Word makes it very clear that they should serve a lifelong, active role in their children’s lives. A Christian man, especially a father, should be a godly man in beliefs as well as in deed. He needs to set an example for his children (especially his sons): it is his duty as an older Christian man to set an example for younger men.

He should be a hard worker, he should meditate on the things of God (the Bible), his speech should conform to sound Bible doctrine, he should be hospitable and caring, kind and loving, he should respect and love his wife, he should love his children, and he should be reserved and cautious in his actions.

Are you a Christian man or Christian father who desires to be the man God intends you to be in Christ Jesus? Place your faith in this sound Bible doctrine, and God will take care of the rest! Then, you will become the godly man described on the pages of Scripture.

Paul and The Pause of Prophecy #12

Thursday, June 13, 2024

“Then Saul, (who also is called Paul,) filled with the Holy Ghost, set his eyes on him” (Acts 13:9 KJV).

How is the Apostle Paul connected to the pause of prophecy?

Someone will surely inquire, “Where is Jesus? Is He coming back or not? When? Does not God care about justice? Why are crime and evil still unpunished?” The Bible already answered these questions centuries ago—but gross ignorance prevails because people spend more time studying theology, denominational commentaries, and other distractions than actually reading pages of rightly divided Scripture. It is not God’s fault!

The pause in prophecy and the commencement of mystery allowed the resurrected, ascended, and glorified Lord Jesus Christ to come back to save His chief enemy in the Earth. This is the salvation of Saul of Tarsus and the commissioning of the Apostle Paul (Acts chapter 9), whose ministry has lasted 2,000 years. Never should we confuse “prophecy” (“[that] which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began;” Acts 3:21) with “mystery” (“[that] which was kept secret since the world began, but now is made manifest;” Romans 16:25,26). To believe prophecy is still in effect now is to fail to “rightly divide the word of truth” (2 Timothy 2:15).

If God could and did save wicked Saul of Tarsus (His chief enemy!), and place him into the Church the Body of Christ, He can and still is saving sinners and putting them into the Body of Christ. This Christ-rejecting world has never deserved grace and will never deserve it—but, through Calvary, God has temporarily granted all people a chance to come by faith in Christ before His wrath does fall. Maybe, just maybe, like Saul so long ago, some of those self-righteous sinners will realize their lost estate and trust Jesus Christ as their personal Saviour too (see 1 Timothy 1:12-16). Surely, this “Gospel of the Grace of God” (Acts 20:24)—Christ died for our sins, He was buried, and He rose again the third day (1 Corinthians 15:3,4)—is beyond human comprehension. Yet, as long as it is preached, as long as Paul’s apostleship continues, there is a pause of prophecy. In God’s own timing, He will stop mystery altogether and resume prophecy.

Paul and The Pause of Prophecy #11

Wednesday, June 12, 2024

“Then Saul, (who also is called Paul,) filled with the Holy Ghost, set his eyes on him” (Acts 13:9 KJV).

How is the Apostle Paul connected to the pause of prophecy?

Responding to the Thessalonians who were suffering great persecution for their faith, the Holy Spirit through Paul composed these words in 2 Thessalonians chapter 1: “[3] We are bound to thank God always for you, brethren, as it is meet, because that your faith groweth exceedingly, and the charity of every one of you all toward each other aboundeth; [4] So that we ourselves glory in you in the churches of God for your patience and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations that ye endure: [5] Which is a manifest token of the righteous judgment of God, that ye may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which ye also suffer:

“[6] Seeing it is a righteous thing with God to recompense tribulation to them that trouble you; [7] And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels, [8] In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: [9] Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power; [10] When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all them that believe (because our testimony among you was believed) in that day.”

It is just, fair, or right that God “take vengeance on” or “pay back” those who harm His children, the believers in Christ. He has reserved that judgment for the final years leading up to and at Christ’s Second Coming, but those days cannot be fulfilled while He is doing something else. He is currently dispensing grace to an undeserving world… and this has been true for some 2,000 years now. However, we must remember this message of “grace and peace” is only temporary. Prophecy has been paused, not cancelled—postponed or delayed, not abolished or nullified. Mystery is for now, not forever.

Let us summarize and conclude this devotionals arc….

Paul and The Pause of Prophecy #10

Tuesday, June 11, 2024

“Then Saul, (who also is called Paul,) filled with the Holy Ghost, set his eyes on him” (Acts 13:9 KJV).

How is the Apostle Paul connected to the pause of prophecy?

Turn now to 2 Corinthians 5:14-16: “[14] For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead: [15] And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again. [16] Wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh: yea, though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we him no more.” Not only is this the Lord Jesus’ finished crosswork, but it is His finished crosswork seen from the Pauline perspective. Whereas the crucifixion was bad news in early Acts (Israel murdered Messiah in unbelief! [Acts 2:22-24; Acts 3:13-15; Acts 4:10-12; Acts 5:30,31; Acts 7:51-53]), it became good news starting with Paul’s ministry.

Keep reading 2 Corinthians chapter 5: “[17] Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. [18] And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; [19] To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. [20] Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to God. [21] For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.”

Through Calvary as revealed in Paul’s Gospel, God has changed the status of the nations from being His enemies to being His friends (“reconciliation”). For 20 centuries now, He has been offering sinners the chance to place their faith in Christ alone as the fully-satisfying payment for their sins. This is the method whereby the God of the Bible postpones the wrath and war, and extends grace and peace to the world….

Paul and The Pause of Prophecy #9

Monday, June 10, 2024

“Then Saul, (who also is called Paul,) filled with the Holy Ghost, set his eyes on him” (Acts 13:9 KJV).

How is the Apostle Paul connected to the pause of prophecy?

Wrath delayed should never, ever be confused with wrath nonexistent (imagined) or wrath abrogated (canceled). Just because God’s current attitude toward the world is grace and peace does not mean it has always been true or will always be true. The Holy Spirit through Paul reminded self-righteous, proud, hypocritical, unsaved Jews during the Acts period of this fact.

Romans chapter 2: “[3] And thinkest thou this, O man, that judgest them which do such things, and doest the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God? [4] Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance? [5] But after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up unto thyself wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God; [6] Who will render to every man according to his deeds: [7] To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life: [8] But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath, [9] Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile;….”

Concentrate on verse 4: “…despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering….” For 2,000 years now, God has had mercy upon all—Jew and Gentile alike. Anyone and everyone can approach Him through faith alone in Jesus Christ’s finished crosswork as sufficient payment for their sins (the Gospel of Grace, or Paul’s Gospel, of 1 Corinthians 15:3,4). Yet, many still smugly clung to their self-righteousness, believing they are “decent” or “good enough” without Christ. How pitifully ignorant they are of “the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God; Who will render to every man according to his deeds:… unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath, Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile;….”

The pause will now cease….

Paul and The Pause of Prophecy #8

Sunday, June 9, 2024

“Then Saul, (who also is called Paul,) filled with the Holy Ghost, set his eyes on him” (Acts 13:9 KJV).

How is the Apostle Paul connected to the pause of prophecy?

Doubtless, the religious fanatic leading the Jewish people to hate and reject the Son of God most vehemently, the man in Israel most opposed to Jesus Christ during early Acts, was Saul of Tarsus. Saul held the clothes of Stephen’s murderers (Acts 7:57-60; Acts 22:19,20)! He viciously persecuted the Messianic Church (cf. Acts 8:1-3; Acts 9:1-6,13,14; 1 Corinthians 15:9; Galatians 1:13,14,22,23; Philippians 3:6). Had Christ come back in prophecy, God’s wrath would have easily consumed him. Instead, Christ returned in Acts chapter 9 in mystery. The God of the Bible had kept a secret, and he revealed it only when He was ready. He would spare Saul of Tarsus, save his pitiful soul through Christ’s finished crosswork, and send him out as the Apostle Paul with this new Gospel of Grace.

First Timothy 1:12-16: “And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who hath enabled me, for that he counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry; Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: but I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief. And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus. This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief. Howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might shew forth all longsuffering, for a pattern to them which should hereafter believe on him to life everlasting.”

Instead of wrath and war (as prophecy foretold), Christ came back in Acts chapter 9 to save His chief enemy in the Earth. Saul of Tarsus was delivered because of mystery truth. As per 1 Timothy, his salvation is a “pattern” of how God deals with sinners via “grace and peace.” This is the “longsuffering… salvation… wisdom given unto Paul” to which Peter referred in 2 Peter 3:9,15,16. God’s longsuffering that saved Paul is now being extended to all sinners, including apostate Israel mocking believing Israel in 2 Peter chapters 1 and 3….
