As Paul Was Challenged, So Are We

Acts 26:12-18

“While Thus Occupied, AS I (Saul) Journeyed TO Damascus, WITH Authority AND Commission FROM The Chief Priests, AT Midday, O King (Agrippa), Along The Road, I SAW A LIGHT FROM Heaven, BRIGHTER THAN The Sun, SHINING AROUND Me and Those Who Journeyed WITH Me.  And When We All Had Fallen TO The Ground, I (Saul) HEARD A VOICE SPEAKING TO Me AND SAYING IN The Hebrew Language, ‘Saul, Saul, Why ARE YOU PERSECUTING Me?  IT IS HARD FOR YOU TO KICK AGAINST The Goads.’  So I (Saul) said, ‘WHO ARE YOU, LORD?’  AND He SAID, ‘I AM Jesus, WHOM YOU ARE PERSECUTING.

But RISE AND STAND ON Your Feet; For I Have APPEARED TO YOU For THIS PURPOSE, TO MAKE YOU A MINISTER AND A WITNESS BOTH OF The Things, Which YOU HAVE SEEN AND OF The Things, Which I WILL YET REVEAL TO YOU (Saul).  I WILL DELIVER YOU FROM The Jewish People, AS WELL AS FROM The Gentiles (Non-Jewish People), TO Whom, I NOW SEND YOU, TO OPEN Their Eyes, IN ORDER TO TURN Them, FROM Darkness TO LIGHT, AND FROM The Power of Satan TO GOD (GOD Almighty), THAT They May RECEIVE FORGIVENESS of sins AND AN INHERITANCE Among Those (Believers), WHO ARE SANCTIFIED, BY FAITH IN Me (Jesus Christ).’”

Galatians 1:11-12, 15-19

But I (Paul aka Saul) MAKE KNOW TO YOU, Brethren (Believers), That The Gospel (The Gospel OF Jesus Christ), Which WAS PREACHED BY Me (Paul), IS NOT according to Man (Mankind).  For I (Paul) NEITHER RECEIVED IT, from Man, NOR Was I Taught IT, BUT IT CAME THROUGH THE REVELATION OF Jesus Christ.  BUT WHEN IT PLEASED GOD (GOD Almighty), WHO SEPARATED Me FROM My Mother’s Womb AND CALLED Me, THROUGH His (GOD Almighty’s) GRACE, TO REVEAL His Son (Jesus Christ), IN Me, That I Might PREACH Him (Jesus Christ) Among The Gentiles (Non-Jewish Believers), I Did NOT Immediately Confer (discuss) WITH Flesh AND Blood (Mankind), NOR Did I GO UP TO Jerusalem, TO Those (Jesus’ Disciples) WHO WERE Apostles, BEFORE Me; BUT I WENT TO Arabia, AND Returned Again TO Damascus.  THEN, AFTER Three (3) Years, I WENT UP TO Jerusalem, TO SEE Peter, AND REMAINED WITH Him (Peter) Fifteen (15) Days.  BUT I SAW NONE OF The Other Apostles, EXCEPT James, The LORD’s (Half) Brother.

Fellow Believers, Saul (later called Paul) WAS PERSONALLY SELECTED, BY Jesus Christ, TO BE His (Jesus Christ’s) Disciple TO The Gentiles (Non-Jewish People), AND Saul (Paul) RECEIVED His Own Personal REVELATION, FROM Jesus Christ!

Did YOU KNOW, Do YOU REALIZE, That YOU ALSO, WERE CHOSEN, BY Jesus Christ, TO BE HIS (Jesus Christ’s) LIGHT UPON This World (Satan’s World)!  That’s Right, GOD Almighty CHOSE YOU, TO BE ADOPTED INTO HIS Family, AND TO BE CO-HEIR, WITH Jesus Christ, OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD Almighty!  YOU WERE CHOSEN, TO PREACH The Gospel OF Jesus Christ, TO EVERYONE, WHO Has Ears TO HEAR AND Eyes TO SEE THE TRUTH!  YOU WERE CHOSEN TO Share The Gospel OF Jesus Christ, WITH Yet-To-Be-Believers, FALSE Teachers, FALSE Believers, Unbelievers, AND Believers, as well.

Just as Paul RECEIVED His REVELATION, FROM Jesus Christ; YOU ALSO, RECEIVE Your Own Personal REVELATION, FROM Jesus Christ, THROUGH The Holy Spirit.  Taking THIS, One Step Further, YOU ALSO RECEIVE Your Own Personal REVELATION, FROM GOD Almighty, THROUGH HIS WORDS YOU READ (IN The Holy Bible), BUT ALSO, THROUGH What GOD Almighty REVEALS TO Your Heart, AS YOU READ HIS WORDS (IN The Holy Bible)!  So, Let’s look at it, THIS WAY, Jesus Christ WALKS WITH Us, The Holy Spirit TEACHES Us, AND GOD Almighty WATCHES OVER Us, Always!

Therefore, We (Believers) Have NO NEED, That ANYONE (Mankind) TEACH Us, WHEN IT COMES TO GOD Almighty, Jesus Christ, The Holy Spirit, AND The Holy Bible, BECAUSE We ALREADY HAVE THE BEST TEACHERS, We COULD EVER HAVE (GOD Almighty, Jesus Christ, AND The Holy Spirit)!  Now, This Does NOT Mean, That We Can NOT LEARN, FROM Each Other (Fellow Believers), Because We Absolutely CAN!  After All, GOD Almighty REVEALS HIS WILL, TO EACH OF Us, Individually, Sometimes MEANT ONLY For Us, BUT Other Times, MEANT TO BE SHARED WITH EVERYONE (Believers).  AND We ARE NOT All Pastors OR Teachers, THESE (Fellow Believers) ARE SPECIFICALLY TASKED, WITH Giving Us KNOWLEDGE, Which GOD Almighty, Jesus Christ, AND The Holy Spirit REVEAL TO Them (Pastors and Teachers).

Matthew 5:16

LET Your (Believers) LIGHT SO SHINE, BEFORE Men, That They May SEE Your (Believers) GOOD WORKS AND GLORIFY Your Father (GOD Almighty), IN Heaven.

The Being Caught Up Together May Occur IN The Next Millisecond, So, There IS NO Time TO Waste, GET OUT There, Show YOU Care, AND Share The Gospel OF Jesus Christ.
