Some Of The Apostle Paul Teachings

By George Turner


When Christ was in the world, many people were against him, and his teachings and they ended up persecuting him in the long run. However, he left disciples and apostles to carry out his work. Paul was one of them, but before he acknowledged Christ, he was a widely known persecutor of the Christian faith. The article discusses some of the apostle Paul teachings after he was reformed.

He bravely claimed that he was not ashamed of the gospel and later on encouraged Timothy that he should be courageous too. In the world today, many people pretend not to be associated with Christ just to fit in. We should never be ashamed so as to fit in the world as our permanent home is in heaven where we would never fit.

He teaches that acknowledging Christ as the son of God and savior of mankind is the only way that people will be able to go to heaven. Christ was sent to earth to save the sins of humanity and tell people what God has stored for them up in heaven. We should, therefore, have one faith, believe in one God and in one baptism.

Another lesson, is that we are not just another one of Gods creation and we were created for a purpose. He did not just create us to worship Him but to be His children too. This is confirmed when we learn that we are heirs together with Christ. We will get to inherit the kingdom and live in it together for all eternity.

One of the most important teachings is that about the resurrection. This is by far one of the greatest miracles to have been performed on the earth. He teaches that baptism is a simple of dying with Christ on the cross and resurrecting with him. It is also a symbol of washing your sins a way and coming back up a new person.

In first Corinthians, he teaches about the unity of faith. This means that the gospel should be a way of bringing together because they have a common belief system. When people come together in faith, they are able to lift each other and support each other, especially through prayer. This is because where several faithful are gathered, miracles can happen.

Our God is peaceful and does not bring confusion. As Christians we only one belief system, this is the one that includes Christ. Paul insists that we just take heed to those people that are preaching about the gospel of Christ. Those that talk about religions that exclude Christ are meant to confuse us, and we should not concentrate on such.

One of the most important things we should fight the good fight and keep the faith as he did. The fight is not physical but rather spiritual. This means that we should always have faith and pray to keep away our spiritual enemies.
