 For certain people have crept in unnoticed, those who were long beforehand marked out for this condemnation, ungodly persons who turn the grace of our God into indecent behavior and deny our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ.

The Book of Galatians carries a dangerous message. It's propelled by a radical idea that continues to challenge man-made beliefs and principles: The Christian religion is not about religion at all. It's about a relationship restored, and living by love, not legalism. In this study of the book of Galatians, we find Paul's battle cry for the true gospel and encounter the freedom found in placing our faith in Christ alone. 

A. Crept in unnoticed--tares while men 

B. Long ago marked for condemnation--not marked out to be     false teachers but for eternal (marked out) punishment's. 

C. Ungodly men who turn the grace of God. 

D. And deny God and Jesus--the same Person. 

1. Praying in the Holy spirit will lead you as to what to do. 

2. Reconciliation is a Christian adjusting to God not God adjusting to us 

 The Book of Jude is an important book for us today because it is written for the end times, for the end of the church age. The church age began at the Day of Pentecost. Jude is the only book given entirely to the great apostasy. Jude writes that evil works are the evidence of apostasy. He admonishes us to contend for the faith, for there are tares among the wheat. False prophets are in the church and the saints are in danger. Jude is a small but important book worthy of study, written for the Christian of today. .

The church has known for two thousand years that Jesus is coming again, and yet many believers have become lethargic and drowsy. They are no longer excited about the soon-coming of the Lord.  As a result, there is little effective witness given that the Lord is returning. 

The Olivet Discourse grew out of some questions the disciples asked when Jesus told them that the temple would one day be destroyed. First, they wanted to know when. This answer is not recorded in Matthew but is given in Luke 21:20–24. 

Second, they asked about the sign of Christ’s return. This is answered in Matthew 24:29–44. In their final question, they asked about the sign of the end of the age. Christ’s reply is in Matthew 24:4–8. 

 In Galatians 5 Paul challenges his readers that they need to be focused on walking in the Spirit, rather than walking according to their flesh. Early in the chapter, he attests that faith working through love is the only thing that avails anything (Galatians 5:6). To avail is to benefit or help.  

In Matthew 23 Jesus pronounces “woes” on the scribes and Pharisees, the religious elite of the day. The word woe is an exclamation of grief, denunciation, or distress. This was not the first time Jesus had some harsh words for the religious leaders of His day. Why did Jesus rebuke them so harshly here? Looking at each woe gives some insight. 

 Paul greeted the Saints in Rome. He declared that the gospel of Jesus So Paul goes out of his way to serve others, to serve the gospel. His example is consistent with his message: the message that God loved the world so much that he sent Jesus to die for us. Although we were enemies, Jesus gave up his rights and gave up his life as a ransom for us 

What's something exciting your business offers? Say it here. Paul greeted the Saints in Rome. He declared that the gospel of Jesus Christ was the power of God unto salvation for everyone who believed, whether Jew or Greek (Gentile). Without the Atonement of Jesus Christ, the wrath of God rested upon those who were guilty of sins. 

The parable reflects the foolishness of attaching too much importance to wealth. It is introduced by a member of the crowd listening to Jesus, who tries to enlist Jesus' help in a family financial dispute: One of the multitude said to him, "Teacher, tell my brother to divide the inheritance with me. 

The message to Sardis is a warning to all “great churches” that are living on past glory.  

A. Name of God--the character, who He is, His name is wonderful, a good name is better.

B. His doctrine--the whole counsel of God, His teaching from Genesis to Revelation.

C. May not be spoken of as evil.

D. Some teachers said that Christians are either the best or the worst representatives of Christianity.

E. Count your own bosses--reckon, consider to be so like count it all joy in James.

The word translated “hold” in Rom. 1:18 can also

be translated “hold down, suppress.” Men knew the

truth about God, but they did not allow this truth to

work in their lives. They suppressed it in order that

they might live their own lives and not be convicted by

God’s truth. The result, of course, was refusing the

truth (Rom. 1:21–22), and then turning the truth into

a lie (Rom. 1:25). Finally, man so abandoned the truth

that he became like a beast in his thinking and in his

living.

 In Isaiah 53, the prophet describes the ordeal of the Messiah who would bear His people’s iniquity and suffer on their behalf (verses 4–6). In the next chapter, Isaiah predicts the coming glory of Jerusalem and the restoration of God’s people, who would know the “everlasting kindness” and compassion of God (Isaiah 54:8). Then, in Isaiah 55, the prophet extends God’s invitation to partake freely of the promised blessings (verses 1–2) and experience God’s “everlasting covenant” (verse 3). This promise of restoration, forgiveness, and blessing would have been especially encouraging to the future generation of battered and bruised Jews returning from their exile in Babylon.
