  There was a time of battle between two countries: the Israelites and the Philistines. The giant Goliath was the leader of a thousand armies in the country of the Philistines. He was a tall, strong, and haughty man. He wanted to make the Israelites his slaves, so he started a war with them, but there were no Israelites who could fight with this giant. The king of Israel was King Saul, who was afraid of fighting with the giant Goliath. So they were so afraid of this giant while he was threatening them every morning and evening of the day, saying, "Send men to fight with me; if I win, you and your people will serve me as slaves; but if you win and defeat me, then my people and I will be your slaves." It had been more than forty years since the Israelites suffered from the giant Goliath. They had given up on winning and were living in fear day by day. In between, the small boy was ready to fight with him; his name was David. He was a shepherd and a really handsome and courageo...

There was a vast majority of gentiles in Paul's audience. According to Gal 5:2, they had not yet been circumcised (Gal 6:12) and they had only worshipped God once (4:8). In regards to the destination of the Galatians' letter, there are two main views. North Galatian theory  According to this view, the letter of Galatians was addressed to the churches located in the north-central part of Asia Minor (Pessinus, Ancyra and Tavium) where the Gauls or Celts had settled when they invaded the area in the third century B.C. It is said that Paul visited this area on his second missionary journey though the book of acts does not give reference to such a visit. According to this view, the letter of Galatians was written between 53 and 57 A.D. from Ephesus or Macedonia.[2] There is some argument on this view like Luke employs the title Galatia only in Acts16:6 and 18:23. Luke's basis for supporting his argument for Paul's mission in the north is vulnerable to several criticisms; fir...

There is no doubt that Paul is the author of the letter to the Ephesians. But there are some critical studies that are against Pauline authorship. For example, in Ephesians 1:3, 3:2, he says, "I have heard about your faith." How can he say something like this? He'd been in Ephesus for over a year and a half. He ministered, baptized, and taught there. Because of this statement, people are raising the question of Paul's authorship. There are 42 words that are not found in the whole New Testament but found only in this epistle, and 40 words that are not found in other Pauline letters. That’s why people are against Paul's authorship. These are the writing styles. Theologically, some argue that Paul does not mention the second coming in this letter, despite writing about it in all of his other letters. Paul is without a doubt the author of Ephesians. We cannot oppose him because of the style of writing he can use as a theologian and scholar in relation to the context...

The four gospels are there in the whole New Testament; the first three, Mark, Matthew, and Luke, are called the synoptic gospels, and the last one is the gospel of John. Jesus is both completely God and completely man. Jesus' saving works include saving the world (John 4:42), finding the lost (Luke 19:10), serving the saved and giving his life as a ransom for many (Mark 10:45), and providing eternal life to those who believe (John3:16). 1. Who is Jesus Christ? The name Jesus means "the one who saves." Both Christ and Messiah mean the anointed one, or the one whom God has anointed for service. [1] For Jesus, the terms "son of God" and "son of man" are used (Mark 2:10, John 1:14, 18, 34, 5:17–27). The term "son of God" has been thought to emphasise Jesus’ deity, and the term "son of man" emphasises his messianic role in the Old Testament. Jesus used the term "son of man" to emphasise his humanness (Matthew 8:20, 11:19...
