IN THE FELLOWSHIP OF THE KING

A Study in 2nd and 3rd John
In the epistles of John we see a common theme of a fellowship shared by believers and the Lord. This fellowship is forged in conflict, against dark and sinister forces, as faith is tested and refined. The touchstone of the fellowship is found in the truth, and that truth centers in the glorious person and work of the Lord Jesus Christ. To hold to this truth against all odds, all deception, and all temptation is to win a place among the ranks of those who value the fellowship of the King. It is an old story.

This compilation of notes represents the truths found in the Epistles of Second and Third John.

Psalm 1 Introduction (Part 1)

Psalm 1 Introduction (Part 1)

The Psalms prophesied the spiritual man verses the natural man (Psa 1:1). David is the dominant author and represent prayers (Psa 72:20). Psalms are in the five "wisdom books" -- teaching how to live God's way. Job teaches how to suffer in faith (Job 13:15). Psalms present how to pray and worship God (Psa 55:16-17). Proverbs teaches how to learn(Pro 9:10). Ecclesiastes teaches how to live with discernment (Ecc 10:10). Life is easier living it God's way. Song of Solomon teaches us how to love (Son 6:3). Psalms are broken into five books: (1) 1-41, (2) 42-72, (3) 73-89, (4) 90-106, (5) 107-150. Psalms five books map to the themes of Moses' Pentateuch: (1) Genesis: creation and election; (2) Exodus: redemption and deliverance; requirements of God; (3) Leviticus: sanctification and communion; (4) Numbers trial and failure. (5) Deuteronomy: divine government and victory. Some things in the Psalms don't apply to believers today because the Spirit indwells us permanently (Joh 14;16, Eph 4:30). Psalms cover 1500 BC to 400 BC with several writers. There's a prophetic thread starts in Psa 1:1 points to the messiah, the Godly man of heaven as opposed to earth. "Blessed in the man who has never walked in the counsel of the ungodly" This can only be Jesus Christ.
