The Philemon summary is now on YouTube! *All notes are in the comments #QuickBibleStudy

1 minute in Philemon How did Paul show meekness? 9 times Paul referenced meekness in his writings, and in his final letter to Philemon he displays his own meekness with style and grace! On a high level, this is a communication to Philemon to compel him to take Onesimus back. Onesimus was once Philemon's servant, but had run away and somehow connected to Paul. And then Onesimus became a child of God, likely through Paul's influence, and is now seeking to be reconciled to Philemon. And it's due to all this that Paul writes this letter. Now Paul could have simply exerted his authority as an apostle and commanded Philemon to take Onesimus back, but that wouldn't have been good for either man and certainly would not have fostered a renewing of a relationship between them. Therefore, Paul "made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a" prisoner, "in the likeness of" a friend, and asked Philemon to take Onesimus back!

The Titus chapter 3 summary is now on YouTube! *All notes are in the comments #QuickBibleStudy

1 minute in Titus 3 How do you decide if someone is a heretick? Titus 3:10 A man that is an heretick after the first and second admonition reject; The apostle Paul doesn't mince words, and these are tough words! So, how do we decide if someone is a "heretick"? Deciding who is a heretick is something that requires caution, discernment and wisdom. If we don't employ caution, discernment and wisdom we will soon categorize everyone that doesn't believe EXACTLY as we do in EVERY little detail as a heretick! You don't want to be that person! My recommendation is for you to decide on truths that where there can be no compromise. I go into this in much greater detail in my long form video!

The Titus chapter 2 summary is now on YouTube! *All notes are in the comments #QuickBibleStudy

1 minute in Titus 2 Are you sober? Throughout Paul's writings, he uses "sober" or its variants 14 times. Paul is the only Bible author to use the word except for Peter, who uses it 3 times. Let's look at the definition "sober" from Paul's perspective: Acts 26:25 the words of truth and soberness. Romans 12:3 to think soberly, 2 Corinthians 5:13 whether we be sober 1 Thessalonians 5:6 watch and be sober. 1 Thessalonians 5:8 who are of the day, be sober... 1 Timothy 2:9 shamefacedness and sobriety... 1 Timothy 2:15 holiness with sobriety. 1 Timothy 3:2 vigilant, sober, of good behaviour... 1 Timothy 3:11 grave, not slanderers, sober... Titus 1:8 sober, just, holy, temperate; Titus 2:4 teach the young women to be sober... Titus 2:6 exhort to be sober minded. Titus 2:12 Teaching us... we should live soberly All notes for this video can be found at: QBS23.QuickBibleStudy.com Click here for the full length explainer video: https://youtube.com/shorts/O8Fn9VFzaHI #QuickBibleStudy

The Titus chapter 1 summary is now on YouTube! *All notes are in the comments #QuickBibleStudy

1 minute in Titus 1 Do your works deny your relationship with God? Titus 1:16 They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate. Abominable: "abominable" or it's variants were used 21 times in the book of Leviticus primarily within the context of what should absolutely NOT be eaten because it was seen as exciting disgust or loathing and morally detestable. And while "abominable" or it's variants were used 176 times in the Bible, this is the only time Paul used the word. "reprobate" = "rejected as worthless" It's safe to surmise that Paul was making it clear to those that have ears to hear, that those "that profess that they know God", but deny him in their works are as disgusting and morally detestable as those that eat bugs, slimy eels, dead carcasses or that participate in homosexual acts.

The 2 Timothy chapter 4 summary is now on YouTube! *All notes are in the comments #QuickBibleStudy

1 minute in 2 Timothy 4 Why was Paul concerned "that all the Gentiles might hear"? 2 Timothy 4:17 Notwithstanding the Lord stood with me, and strengthened me; that by me the preaching might be fully known, and that all the Gentiles might hear: and I was delivered out of the mouth of the lion. At what could have been Paul's loneliest time in his entire life, he was fully aware that "the Lord stood with [him] and strengthened [him]"! And it's profound that he was aware "that all the Gentiles might hear"! I'm glad to finally be a part of Paul's ministry all these years later, and in some small way helping Paul, "that all the Gentiles might hear"!

The 2 Timothy chapter 3 summary is now on YouTube! *All notes are in the comments #QuickBibleStudy

1 minute in 2 Timothy 3 Why did Paul say, "perilous times shall come"? Because men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: And that from such we should turn away. There will silly women being lead captive And mankind will be ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. Most importantly, we should know Paul's: doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, charity, patience, persecutions, afflictions, And those that live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution Evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse And that "All scripture is given by inspiration of God" All notes for this video can be found at: QBS23.QuickBibleStudy.com Click here for the full length explainer video: https://youtube.com/shorts/p5pToHFZ3Fc #QuickBibleStudy

1 minute in 2 Timothy 2 Are you a good soldier of Jesus Christ? 2 Timothy 2:3 Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. QUESTION: What does it mean to be "a good soldier of Jesus Christ"? ANSWER: 2 Timothy 2:4 No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier. And we must work with the right rules: 2 Timothy 2:5 And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned, except he strive lawfully. If we are teaching confusion than we are NOT striving "lawfully"!

The 2 Timothy chapter 1 summary is now on YouTube! *All notes are in the comments #QuickBibleStudy

1 minute in 2 Timothy 1 How do you "stir up the gift of God" that is in you? In 2 Timothy 1:6, Paul says to Timothy: "Wherefore I put thee in remembrance that thou stir up the gift of God, which is in thee..." And in verse 7, Paul gives IDEAS on how to “stir up the gift of God” in us: 2 Timothy 1:7 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. IDEA #1: (Regarding "God hath not given us the spirit of fear") Step fully into that "liberty" we have in Christ to avoid "the spirit of fear"! IDEA #2: (Regarding "Power") Practice not being "ashamed of the gospel of Christ... for it is the power of God"! IDEA #3: (Regarding "Love") Have a willingness and desire to "Hold fast the form of sound words, which" we have "heard of" Paul! IDEA #4: (Regarding "A sound mind") "Hold fast the form of sound words" which will function to give us "a sound mind"!

The 1 Timothy chapter 6 summary is now on YouTube! https://youtu.be/YyXGUnVRkAs #QuickBibleStudy

1 minute in 1 Timothy 6 Are you in a "good fight"? Paul addresses Timothy with "warfare" type words in 1 Timothy 6:12, "Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses." Do you see yourself as being in a "good fight"? If not, you're likely to wear yourself out! In 1 Corinthians 9:25-26, Paul said in reference to obtaining an "incorruptible" crown, "so fight I, not as one that beateth the air". If our "fight" is so ineffective that we're just beating the air, we're going to wear ourselves out! Paul further exhorts Timothy, in 1 Timothy 6:14 "That thou keep this commandment without spot, unrebukeable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ:" So I ask you, Are you in a "good fight"?

The 1 Timothy chapter 5 summary is now on YouTube! *All notes are in the comments #QuickBibleStudy

1 minute in 1 Timothy 5 Why couldn't the apostle Paul heal himself? In the book of Acts, we see Paul miraculously heal people on a number of occasions: In Acts 19 – Paul’s garments and handkerchiefs are brought to the sick, diseased and possessed and they are healed! In Acts 20 – Paul raises a man from the dead! But in 1 Timothy 5:23, Paul tells Timothy... "Drink no longer water, but use a little wine for thy stomach's sake and thine often infirmities." This is clear evidence that something dramatic had changed from Jesus' earthly ministry to Israel that was marked by continual healings, compared to "the dispensation of the grace of God" (Ephesians 3:2) where all signs, wonders and healings by the apostles were either quickly fading away or completely done at this point.

The 1 Timothy chapter 3 summary is now on YouTube! *All notes are in the comments #QuickBibleStudy

1 minute in 1 Timothy 3 Can women be bishops & deacons? Not according to scripture! 1 Timothy 3:1 This is a true saying, If a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work. 1 Timothy 3:2 A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife... As for deacons, the scripture is just as clear: 1 Timothy 3:12 Let the deacons be the husbands of one wife... Religion is flooded with bishops & deacons that are women! Obviously the scriptures are NOT their final authority!
