Rules 11 - 15

When Paul knew that his days on earth were numbered and he would not get out of prison to start any more churches, he wrote one final letter. We know it as 2 Timothy. When a man knows his life is coming to an end and he has important things to share, we often find those things in his final words. That’s why I chose 2 Timothy for this series.

Now that we know how to be saved, how to study the Bible, and the importance of serving God – let’s look at the process of doing just that – serving God. I’m going to share with you 40 Rules for Christian Ministry. I did not make up these rules. They come directly from the Apostle Paul, which means they come directly from God.

You can listen to the First Four Rules of Bible Study in the previous podcast. Let’s move next to the Second Four Rules.

Whether you are a new Christian or have been saved for years, there’s something you MUST do – learn how to study the Bible. I developed eight rules for Bible study through years of doing it, so I’d like to share with you what’s worked well for me. For the purpose of keeping this podcast brief, I’ll share the first four now and the second four next time.

How long does it take to ‘be saved?’ An hour? A day? A week? A month? A year?

According to the Apostle Paul, a person who truly ‘believes’ in the Lord Jesus Christ is saved right away.

I’m dedicating the 8th Season of our Podcasts to the ‘Next Generation.’ My reason is simple.

Welcome to Podcast Season 8 for GraceLife, Faith and Self Defense, Grace Martial Arts, and my Substack Newsletter! I look forward to seeing where God takes us this next year.

I started this series on October 6, 2012. The reason was simple. Atheists asked me why I became a Christian. I was an atheist until 1971. What happened? What changed my mind? Those were, and still are, honest questions that deserve a detailed response. That’s why I started the series. Now it’s time to bring that series to an end – a logical conclusion.

The Gospels are documents that serve as a “proof of life” for Jesus Christ. The writings of the apostles, who knew Jesus personally, are also proof-of-life documents.
