Trek Through Truth

Paul expresses concern about immorality in the Church. He then advises about marriage and remaining single, and how to decide which is right for an individual.  I Corinthians 6:12-20; 7:1-9,10-24, 25-35, 36-39 #everydaychristians

Paul's letters to the Corinthians scold them for immaturity and tolerance of immorality in the church. He also defines our role in judging others. I Corinthians 2:6-16; I Corinthians 3:1-17,18-23; I Corinthians 4:1-5, 6-21; I Corinthians 5:1-13 

As the Gospel spreads, the Holy Spirit through Paul clarifies and corrects teachers so that the whole Gospel will be taught rather than a truncated or incorrect version.  Acts 18:22-28; 19:1-10,11-22; I Corinthians 1:1-9, 10-25,26-31; I Corinthians 2:1-5

Paul gives more signs that will happen before Jesus' Second Coming, and we meet his important partners in ministry, Priscilla and Aquila.  2 Thessalonians 2:1-12, 13-17; 2 Thessalonians 3:1-5, 6-15; Acts 18:12-21; John 3:16

Paul writes to the Thessalonians to answer the questions they have, mostly about End Times.  The information he gives them is amazing for us as well.  I Thessalonians 4:1-12, 13-19; 5:1-11, 12-28; 2 Thessalonians 1:1-12

Bereans set the bar high for us to openly receive the Word from our teachers and then test it against Scripture. Paul finds the Thessalonians steadfast in their faith. Acts 17:10-18, 16-34; 18:1-11; 1 Thessalonians 1:1-10; 2:1-20; 3:1-13

Paul continues his missionary journey with Silas (and Luke) after splitting with Barnabus.  They encounter persecution everywhere but never lose their joy!  Galatians 6:1-16; Acts 15:36-41; 16:1-5, 6-15, 16-24, 25-34, 35-40; 17:1-9. #everydaychristians

Paul gives a lesson on the purpose of the law and instructs us not put ourselves back under it when we can have freedom in Christ.  Galatians 3:5-18,19-29; 4:1-7,8-31; 5:1,2-15,16-25 #everydaychristians

As the Jewish converts struggle with Gentiles coming to Christ, an interesting Old Testament mystery surfaces.  Acts 15:10-11,12-35; Amos 9:11-12; 2 Samuel 6:17-19; Galatians 1:1-24, 2:1-14,15-21, 3:1-4 

Paul speaks in the synagogues, beginning with God's choosing Israel to Jesus being the fulfillment of their own prophecies!  Acts 13:13-43,44-51; 14:1-7,8-18,19-28. The Sons of God and the Nephilim (Tim Chaffey), biblegateway.com #everydaychristians

Although Peter is called to teach the Jews about Jesus, God supernaturally gives him what he needs to defend spreading the Gospel to Gentiles as well.  Acts 11:1-18, 19-30; 12:1-17, 18-25; 13:1-14.  Biblegateway.com  #everydaychristians

Paradigms are shifting.  After Saul's conversion, he becomes zealous for Christ, and wants his people to understand what he now understands.  Meanwhile, Peter is called to a Gentile's house!  Acts 9:19-31, 32-43, 10:1-33, 34-48 #everydaychristians

Saul, a vicious and zealous enemy of the Church, is transformed when he meets Jesus.  Acts 8:1-8,9-25,26-40; 9:1-19; John 7:38-39; Jeremiah 3:16-17; Zephaniah 3:9-10; The Search for the Ark of the Covenant pt 1 - Bob Cornuke 

The group of disciples grows, deacons are chosen, and a very special deacon named Stephen is stoned as the early Church experiences persecution.  Acts 5:33-42; 6:1-15; 7:1-40,41-60; 8:1.

Miracles and Holy Spirit-driven bold preaching put the Apostles in a precarious position with the Jewish leaders, but God handles it. Acts 3:12-26; 4:1-22, 23-37; 5:1-11,12-32 

The Holy Spirit falls on Jesus' followers empowering them to preach the Gospel with boldness. Excitement ensues. He will do the same for us!  Luke 24:51-53; Acts 1:12-26,1-5;2:1-13,14-39,40-47;3:1-11; Mark 16:20; John 20:30-31;21:25 #everydaychristians

Jesus appears to His disciples multiple times before ascending to sit at the right hand of the Father.  He also leaves US instructions. Mark 16:14-19; Luke 24:36-51; John 20:19-29, 21:1-24; Matthew 28:16-20; Acts 1:6-11

He is risen!  He is risen!  Eyewitnesses confirm it and stake their lives on it.  Matthew 27:62-66,28:1-10; John 20:1-18; Mark 16:1-12; Luke 24:1-32

Life drains from Jesus on the cross and the universe shifts for every being.  Praise God that Sunday's coming!  John 19:25-42, Matthew 27:45-61, Mark 15:33-47, Luke 23:46-55 bethlehemstar.com, compellingtruth.org #everydaychristians

In today's passages, Jesus willingly hangs on the cross, suffering the shame and death that He never deserved but we did.  Matthew 27:32-44; Mark 15:21-32; Luke 23:26-43, 22:37; John 19:18-24; Psalm 69:19-21; 22:16-18; Isaiah 53:10-12 #everydaychristians
