1 Corinthians 2:13

Memory VerseThese things also we speak, not in [the] teachings of man’s wise words but in [the] teaching from the Holy Spirit, comparing Spiritual [words] with Spiritual [things] (1 Corinthians 2:13). The wisdom of men is based in the soul–based on the emotions (James 3:15). It is foolishness to God

1 John 4:15

Memory Versewhoever should happen to confess that Jesus is the Son of God, the God abides in him, and he in God (1 John 4:15). Confession is a verbal agreement. God the Father stated Jesus is His Son when Jesus was immersed into His priestly service (Matthew 3:17). Sonship has nothing to do with bir

Galatians 3:21

Memory VerseTherefore, is the law against the promise from God? May it never come to be! For if the giving of law, one having the inherent ability to give life, certainly out from the law would be the righteousness (Galatians 3:21). The Mosaic Law did not replace the covenant of promise.

Memory VerseAnd have watched and we testify that the Father sent the Son, Savior of the world, 1 John 4:14.

Liberty (ἐλευθερία)

Liberty (ἐλευθερία) is a state or condition of freedom, especially in contrast to slavery, constraint, or subjugation. Liberty opposes both futility and corruption.

1 Corinthians 2:11

Memory VerseFor what man intuitively knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man in him? Thus, also the things of God no one knows except the Spirit of God (1 Corinthians 2:11).

Memory VerseBy this, we experientially know that in Him we abide and that He is in us, because He has given us out from His Spirit (1 John 4:13).

What Is Allegory in the Bible? Galatians 4 Explained | Dangers of Allegorizing Scripture

Pastor Luther Walker discusses the Greek verb allegoreo (ἀλληγορέω), meaning “to speak allegorically” or “to speak otherwise,” derived from roots implying “other” and “to speak publicly.” This term appears only once in the New Testament, in Galatians 4:24, where Paul uses it to describe the story of

Galatians 3:17

Memory VerseAnd this I say, the covenant ratified by God to Christ, the law, having come to be four hundred and thirty years later, cannot revoke unto the annulment of the promise, Galatians 3:17.
