I love this couple way too much. Sometimes they’re called “Priscilla and Aquila” as in Rom. 16:3. In the Greek, their names would be pronounced as “pris’-cil-lah” and “ak-oo’-las”. I love that. Sometimes this dynamic duo is also called, as in 2 Tim. 4:19, Prisca and Aquila. Some say that Prisca is a shorthand version…

The Great School of Grace
Titus 2:11 For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, Tit 2:12 Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world; Tit 2:13 Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus…
Leading Captive Silly Women
2 Tim. 3:6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, 2 Tim. 3:7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. You might remember from history, Stalin’s Great Purge back in 1937, which was…
“Not Unto You In Word Only, But Also In Power”
1st Thess.1:[4] Knowing, brethren beloved, your election of God.[5] For our gospel came not unto you in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Ghost, and in much assurance; as ye know what manner of men we were among you for your sake.[6] And ye became followers of us, and of the…
Just My Imagination?
And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. (Genesis 6:5) Before I go any further, I just want to pass along this disclaimer: This article is not about the “Nephilim.” I repeat: This is not about…
Where Two Or Three Are Gathered…
For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them. (Matthew 18:20) One of the most abused Scriptures, out of many, is Matthew 18:20. This verse is used so often as a verse that proves that the Holy Spirit is present “when two or three are…
Faith-FULL!
Let a man so account of us, as of the ministers of Christ, and stewards of the mysteries of God. Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful. (1 Corinthians 4:1-2) One of the most important things for anyone that ministers, no matter their role, is that they be faithful. As…
Marriage: On the Rock, or On the Rocks?
Marriage between men and women (there is no other way) is an institution which has for it’s establishment God, Himself. He created Eve as a helpmeet for Adam, so that he would not be alone. And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an…
Elect of God & Predestination
Col 3:12 Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering; 3:13 Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye. 3:14 And above all these things put on…
Just My Imagination?
Maybe it’s just my imagination? But, it seems there is much more backbiting, and bickering, now happening between like minded Believers. Well, let me take that opening statement back. It’s not my imagination. It is fact! There is, after all, nothing new under the sun. You see; there is something inherent in every single person…
The Reliability of Scripture
Everyone has their own opinions about everything under the sun, including politics and religion. Dare I say that these are still the most disagreed upon subjects ever! The main thing that sparks so much of the disagreement is inaccurate information. Our political world is adrift in opinion, rather than set laws. The same can be…
Saying No to Militancy
I’d like to share one of my favorite articles by Pastor Hal Bekemeyer. This guy has been around the grace movement about as long as I’ve been alive (yes, he’s that old but don’t tell him I said that). He is also a regular co-host on our Grace Life Podcasts. I crack jokes and Hal…
Light & Darkness
(reposting from old blog from Dec. 29th, 2011) Being made aware of certain events, details, and other random information is a part of our everyday life. Gaining knowledge and exercising knowledge begins as soon as we wake up in the morning. We do this particularly in specific areas of expertise. In other words, in our…
Did Paul Write The Romans Epistle Or Was It Tertius?
Rom 16:19 For your obedience is come abroad unto all men. I am glad therefore on your behalf: but yet I would have you wise unto that which is good, and simple concerning evil. Rom 16:20 And the God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ…
Did Paul Write The Epistle To The Hebrews?
Col 1:1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timotheus our brother, Col 1:2 To the saints and faithful brethren in Christ which are at Colosse: Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. In some, if not most bibles declare that the Apostle Paul wrote the book…
Godliness: Laboring Together With God Part 1
Rom 15:1 We then that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves. Rom 15:2 Let every one of us please his neighbour for his good to edification. Rom 15:3 For even Christ pleased not himself; but, as it is written, The reproaches of them that reproached thee…
Mankind’s Only Hope
Eph. 2:4-5 – But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) One thing that is clear in God’s word is that mankind’s only hope is the grace of God. Strip…
Grace Recovery, Part 3
Grace Recovery, Part 3 If you keep struggling with life’s troubles, worry, stress, anxiety, anger, drugs, drinking…. The Bible has the answer to your problem. An unsaved man is in Adam and has a dead Spirit. Therefore the soul has no choice but to look to the body or flesh to know how to function….

The time for edification of Christian’s has never been more important than now. The season we are entering demands all the more, a strong, resolute faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, as well as, a profitable faith for all men to see. Now is not the time to cower and evade the call of our…
The Light on the Tree
John 8:12 – Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life. John 9:5 – As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world. Acts 5:30 – The…
