These Are 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 taught that there only exists one faith, one lord, and one baptism. This means that all the others that people created for themselves are wrong. There is one God and one Father for all. This is true as you have to acknowledge Christ as the son of God in order to get into heaven. Christ was sent to teach about all the good things God has in store for us in heaven.

We are to be co-heirs with Christ. This is because we are all the children of God. We are not just mere creations to Him but we are of great importance, and he wants the best for us. Having this in mind, we should strive to avoid sin to be able to have a chance at getting into heaven and enjoying the benefits of having an eternal life filled with joy.

He also taught about the resurrection. Christ resurrected from the dead on the third day, and this is symbolized through baptism. To many, baptism is a way in which all of our sins are washed away. It is also a symbol of the death and resurrection of Christ. So you die with him when you are submerged in the water, and you rise from the dead as you come out of the water.

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.
