Genesis is the beginning of all things! Please join me on this amazing trip of beginnings. All 50 chapters have a wealth of revelations of God and promises of God both past, present and future. Get your Bible and join the journey. I am beginning with some posts from last year and will be adding to them. God bless!
Welcome to a study in the book of Ephesians!
I'm so glad you decided to join me! God's Word is life to us! It is our instruction manuel for life. The Bible contains the "ABC's"of Christian living. Many times we struggle and struggle to live a godly life. God doesn't want you to struggle, but He does require us to "work out our salvation with fear and trembling". That just means work out that walk with Him individually. Figure out what to do and then do it! He has given you the answers in His book of books - the Bible! Let's discover what it is saying to you. Let the Holy Spirit teach you! By the way, you must be born again to understand this book.
How do you get "born again"? In John 3, Jesus says you must be born of the Spirit. That means your Spirit needs to be revived, brought to life. Only Jesus can do that!Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth and the life". As a matter of fact, He also said that there was one way to the Father. That way was through Him. He wasn't just a prophet or good man. He is the Son of God. God created you. God loves you. God wants you to have a relationship with Him. How? One way. Believe. Believe that Jesus is the Son of God. Believe that He died on the cross to delete your sin and get you to a place where you can know God here on earth and see Him face to face when you die. That's it. Do it today!
Oh yes. Please comment on the posts! I would love to hear what God has revealed to you about Genesis! Let the journey begin!

First Bite
Hi. So glad you are taking this journey with me through the book of Galatians. God's Word is THE manual for life. It is life itself. John 1:14 says, "And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth." The" begotten" there is Jesus Himself - the Son of God. God's Word (the Bible) is alive! It's full of truths to live life. This world needs some truth, wouldn't you agree? Well. God's Word is truth. I know for me, it is the foundation on which I have built my life. God has been so good to me, and desires good for you. One wonderful thing that happens when you become born again and ask Jesus into your life, you enter into God's grace. God, in the Old Testament, gave man the Law. the 10 commandments, for man to live by. But, in trying to live by these laws, man constantly failed. So, through Christ, God takes the law and writes it in our heart. That means that it's easier to live when we are motivated from within instead of controlled from a law. If our hearts are right, we will do the right thing. God is pretty smart! The churches in Galatia, to whom this letter is written, were struggling with the temptation to get back under the law. Paul is trying to remind them of the freedom they have in Christ. This is the main theme of this book!
