These Are Some Of The Apostle Paul Teachings

By George Turner


Paul was born as Saul in Tarsus and was a very powerful persecutor. He was among the greatest persecutors of Christians. He later accepted Christ into his life and is one of the best-known apostles. He was not motivated by threats of malice but rather by the fact that he had been helping the enemy of his Jewish faith. The article speaks of the apostle Paul teachings.

First, he declared in the book of Romans that he was not ashamed of the gospel of Christ. This should be a reminder to us that we should deny Christ in front of men. Rather, we should be proud that he has chosen us to carry out his duties on earth and spread his good news throughout all the nations. He further goes to say that he was not taught the gospel, but it was revealed to him by Christ.

We all want to go to heaven at the end of our lives. The journey is not an easy one as one will go through trials but will have to persevere. You will also have to acknowledge Christ as the son of God and the savior of mankind. Then and only then, will you be able to enter the kingdom of heaven and have an eternally peaceful life.

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.

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.

Another thing we learn is the unity of faith. This means that faith should be the common factor that brings all of the Christians together at all times. Faith in God should bring Christians together to achieve the one thing they all aspire to. This is leading a fulfilling life as the one Christ did and get rewarded by going to heaven at the end of their lives.

He teaches that God is a God of peace and not confusion. He asked the people if Christ was divided. He further asks if the disciple Paul died for them or for his own faith. He feels them that a person who preaches another gospel other than that of Christ is cursed for they are bringing confusion and our God is not a God of confusing people.

He insisted that Christians fight the good fight of faith. This is not a physical fight but rather a spiritual one. This means fighting regarding prayer to keep all away everything that may attack you spiritually.
