I shall be blessed by the will of God to come to you. Romans 1:8-12.

Posted on 05/07/2019 by remso

When I was young, I rarely found a trek through the Bible interesting. I suppose that had more to do with the person who was doing the teaching and their personality. I often find my character to be a bit … Continue reading →

Romans 1:1. Paul, a slave of Christ Jesus.

Posted on 04/07/2019 by remso

With the understanding that Jesus is God, I began to study the gospels where the actions and words of Jesus were laid out before me. If my perception was correct, and Jesus was God, then I was seeing God in action. I could not worry about the “law” with all its regulations; I merely observed the life of Jesus. Continue reading →

With the travelers corpses still lying on the ground. Ezekiel 39:14-16

Posted on 08/01/2018 by remso

As I began to take on this section, I was reminded how far too many times that Bible teachings, in general, have been fraught with tradition, a lack of logic, and bereft of truth. This is what I grew up … Continue reading →

I will not let My holy name be profaned anymore. Ezekiel 39:7 -13

Posted on 07/29/2018 by remso

God, angry with Gog, the leader of Magog, puts a hook in his jaw and draws him to the hills of Israel and kills, not only him but 5/6th of those who have allied themselves with this person. I feel … Continue reading →

In his time he will be revealed. 2Thessalonians 2:5-8

Posted on 05/31/2018 by remso

I started writing this blog in 2014. I am writing this because I woke up one morning, years ago, and began listening to the late J. Vernon McGee talking on the radio about this very passage. If I heard him … Continue reading →

A study/commentary on 2 Thessalonians 2: 1-4

Posted on 05/01/2018 by remso

I primarily use the NASB, but occasionally I find it deficient; I will insert other translations if they can clarify the context. Those translations will be duly noted. Chapter one was an appropriate greeting, but chapter two stands alone and … Continue reading →

Posted on 04/15/2018 by remso

Several weeks ago the Monday morning study leader announced that the following week we would be starting a study on vengeance. To show that the carnal side of me still exists, I wrote this on my notepad, Coming up next … Continue reading →

Posted on 02/07/2018 by remso

Sorry, if this trip through Galatians is becoming tedious, but imagine that moment when a new reader drops in and has no idea of what we are talking. It happens. We are working our way through Paul’s letter to the … Continue reading →
