Los cinco libros de Moisés anticiparon el cumplimiento de la promesa de Dios a Abraham con respecto a la tierra prometida. Ahora (alrededor de 1400 aC) a través de una serie de victorias militares bajo el mando de Josué, Israel conquistó la tierra, que se distribuiría de acuerdo a las doce tribus. En estas batallas se hizo evidente que Dios pelea por su pueblo cuando son "fuertes y valientes" y ponen su plena confianza en él.

Originating in the circumstance of a multicultural church (primarily Jewish and Hellenistic), Ephesians addresses issues appropriate to the diverse religious and cultural backgrounds present in the community. Paul addresses hostility, division, and self-interest more than any other topic in the letter, leading many scholars to believe that his primary concern was not doctrinal, but behavioral.Some theologians agree the main theme of Ephesians is in response to the newly converted Jews who often separated themselves from their Gentile brethren. The unity of the church, especially between Jew ...

The book of Romans was written by Paul the Apostle on his third missionary journey. The Holy Spirit inspired Paul to write about life as a person before Christ and life as a believer after Christ. He talks about the life before Christ being impossible to live, as the flesh has dominion over a person. Gloriously bringing hope, he writes of the One who did live the impossible life, and how He now lives within the believer. Jesus becomes the new manager of their body to produce what fruit glorifies Himself. This book is so clearly pointing to the Life-giver; the believer who was once dead, may ...

Paul wrote this letter to the Galatians to warn them of how they were changing their belief of the gospel. They were subtly starting to believe that they must finish in the flesh what was begun in the Spirit. They had forgotten the simplicity of the gospel. The Galatian church had been infected with "another gospel." The Letter to the Galatians is the Apostle Paul's antidote. They had been led to believe that what was begun in the Spirit was to be perfected through the flesh. They had been led astray. Paul's correction is two-fold: the completeness of salvation through the sacrifice of Jesus, ...

It informs them Egyptian Jews of the death of Antiochus, and invites them to celebrate the feasts of the ...

Paul's main purpose in writing is to encourage and reassure the Christians ...
