How does the major author of the New Testament and the apostle to the gentiles see this issue? He has a strong emotional perspective that leaves for little doubt.

Growing churches will become targets of wolves; therefore we must train leaders within the congregations on countering them. These seven principles are obviously overlapping and interconnected but helpful to prepare and protect believers.

Paul's letter to the Galatian congregations is a response to those poisoning the gospel message. Therefore, to understand this epistle one must understand the attackers. The judaizing party came behind Paul's missionary work in a stealthy fashion after he left each town. They inserted teachers probably experienced Pharisee teachers who undermined Paul's reputation and his gospel message focused on grace and faith in Christ. In contrast their focus was on using the law in an over regulatory manner in addition to more restrictive rules of Pharisees own making. They were working on bringing these gentiles into a Pharisaical extreme worship of God. Paul first defends his Apostleship:

A loving God is not turning over to Satan all the billions never saved for eternal torture in Dante's Infernal, hell. It is comforting to know that all our relatives that have passed away are asleep waiting their turn at the second resurrection when they will be given an opportunity for salvation. God has promised to resurrect all the dead- some to everlasting life in his family and others to a chance to be saved by God's grace. These are the 'rest of the dead' mentioned in Rev 20: 5-6.

Baptism is one of the vital six doctrines of Jesus for believers. Why? Baptism symbolizes the renunciation of the past sinful way of life by the burial of the old man in a watery grave. Then the emergence of a new spirit led man living with Christ's mind and following in His footsteps which happens to all true Christians.

Christ gave a very powerful warning to all us prophecy end time watchers. It is that the date of His second coming and the end of this age of Satan/Mankind rebellion is going to be a surprise.

A monument stands in front of the United Nations declaring the world need not learn war any longer. The quotes are from the Bible. You can be certain that if they were founding the UN today they would never choose the Bible for such a prominent quotation source. But the prophets stated God's intentions coming soon historically:

A statement by Jesus can lead some believers to fear money or any level of wealth. What should a wise, balanced believer make of this verse?

The modern world embraces a death culture from abortion to euthanasia not knowing that these things have an unknown distant past. ONE OF THE ODDEST things revealed in Bible history is the magnetic attraction of paganism idolatry and false gods like Molech a death god. Whenever Israel lost strong Bible leadership they would slip back into paganism,why?

Does the Apostle Paul state in Romans 10:13 that all a believer has to do is call out the name of Jesus to be saved? Is it sort of like a magic word or phrase needed for salvation- Is this true? Is it just that easy or is it a misunderstanding when taken out of context?
