A Bible Study On Salvation

BIBLE STUDY.

It is interesting just how many truths there are in sets of 3 that we can study. Clearly this shows us the inspiration, the inerrancy and the infallibility of the Lord God Almighty in having the Holy Scriptures recorded to guard, guide and grow us in every facet of human life as we walk by faith in Him.

We then have the –       3 E’s of Grammar in Spiritual Teaching.

Exhortation – an address or communication emphatically urging someone to do something.

Edification – The moral or intellectual instruction or improvement of someone.

Encouragement – The action of giving someone support, confidence, or hope. To persuade to do or to continue something.

But then we have the –               3 E’s of Fleshly Teaching.

Entertainment – An event, performance, or activity designed to entertain others. This is ‘a theatrical entertainment’

Excitement – A feeling of great enthusiasm and eagerness.

Error – a deviation from accuracy or correctness; a mistake, as in action or speech: belief in something untrue; the holding of mistaken opinions. The condition of believing what is not true, a moral offense; wrongdoing; sin.

So, we have within the Body of Messiah those whose teaching is Word based and then those who teach to tickle ears. See Matthew 24:24; 2 Timothy 4:2-4.
