Assignment Sixteen - Ephesians through 1 Timothy

This past week was quite hectic. We were only home four short days before leaving again. The opportunity to post this next assignment didn't present itself. I'm taking the time to create this assignment a bit early and will have it scheduled to post tomorrow (Tuesday, July 30) night. I'll be leaving again this Wednesday for a couple of days. Regardless of the upcoming holiday, Hang In There! :-)


(At any rate, I hope you've finished the last assignment.
Perhaps you've already begun this one?)


"When by the Spirit of God, I understood these words, 'The just shall live by faith,' I felt born again like a new man. I entered through the open doors into the vary Paradise of God!"

Martin Luther


Ephesians was a 6-chapter book. So, please read the final three chapters Wednesday, July 1, 2009. If you're like me, when you see that Philippians has only four chapters, you will want to read the entire book on Thursday, July 2.

Colossians also has only four chapters. Read these on Friday, July 3. 1 Thessalonians has five very short chapters. Would you be willing to read the entire book on Saturday, July 4?
2 Thessalonians has only three chapters. Read this book on Sunday, July 5.

Timothy has six chapters. Read the first three on Monday, July 6 and the second three on Tuesday, July 7.



What a wonderful variety of reading we'll be doing this week. Please note the nature and tone of each of these letters, also. What are you learning about the word of God, the will of God and the variety of approaches Paul uses to accomplish the winsome work of leading, correcting and encouraging?
