...................................................................LET US LEARN TOGETHER WHAT IS GOOD. Job 34:4b(NIV)................................................................Some people see the Bible as a long and boring book filled with incidents and events from the lives of ancient people who probably never existed. The biblical stories are seen as fables. In this blog, many of the situations and conversations found in the divinely inspired Holy Scriptures have been placed in categories that correspond to expressive sayings and phrases.

The One and Only

From a letter written by the apostle Paul,
with Timotheus (Timothy), to believers in Philippi:

But I trust in the Lord Jesus to sent Timotheus shortly unto you, that I also may be of good comfort, when I know your state. For I have no man likeminded, who will naturally care for your state. For all seek their own, not the things which are Jesus Christ's. But ye know the proof of him, that, as a son with the father, he hath served with me in the gospel. Him therefore I hope to send presently, so soon as I shall see how it will go with me. But I trust in the Lord that I also myself shall come shortly.-Philippians 2:19-24***The divinely inspired Scriptures of the Holy Bible reveal no information of the apostle Paul (Saul) being married or having children. Paul did, however, have at least 1 sister, and it was her son who learned that a group of their fellow Israelites was planning to kill Paul. Paul's nephew told him about the plot, and Paul arranged for his nephew to give the information to Roman commander Claudius Lysias. Other young men were especially beneficial to Paul, and 3 of them, Titus, Onesimus and Timothy (Timotheus), were regarded  by Paul as sons. Paul, Titus, Onesimus, and Timothy believed Jesus, who had been crucified, buried in a tomb, resurrected, and returned to heaven, to be the Christ, the Son of God. Titus was a Gentile, a person not born into the Israelite tribes. Onesimus was formerly a slave; his lineage is not revealed in the Holy Bible. Timothy's mother Eunice was an Israelite and Timothy's father was a Gentile.-Genesis 11:26-35:29, 1 Chronicles 1:1-34, 2:1-17, 3:1-24, 8:1-40, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts 1:1-26, 6:1-8:4, 9:1-31, 11:19-28:31, Romans 16:1-27, 1 Corinthians 4:1-21, 7:1-40, 16:1-24, 2 Corinthians 1:1-24, Philippians 1:1-3:23, Colossians 1:1-29,  1 Thessalonians 1:1-10, 3:1-13, 2 Thessalonians 1:1-12, 1 Timothy, 2 Timothy, Titus, Philemon
