The Mystery

The lesson on May 3, 2020 was part 53 of the "Genesis" study.  This weeks lesson continued to focus on Abraham and the biblical linkage that can be established with the faith and promises that were given to Abraham.  When you focus on Abraham regarding faith, inheritance, hope, love, family, covenant, steward and race, we are taught how to establish linkage between these topics.  Wayne introduces us to a Cluster Dendrogram, which is what they use in statistics to diagram what shows the hierarchical relationship between objects, in this case those scriptural objects. It is most commonly created as an output from hierarchical clustering. He taught us the the problem with Christianity today is that they cluster objects that don't relate to each other and cause chaos, which introduces fake news.  This fake news is sometimes called good news but with improper clustering it causes false doctrine and hopes.  The scripture reading was from Galatians 3:16 KJV

The lesson on March 29, 2020 was part 49 of the "Genesis" study.  Before we continued on the Genesis study, the first 15 minutes covered the latest Right Division Snippet which was entitled "Mid – Acts: “The Mystery Was Made Known in Acts” – Proof?"  This snippet presents evidence that the mysteries that we revealed in Acts is not The Mystery that was revealed post-Acts in Ephesians and Colossians.  Wayne took time to review some of the mysteries that were revealed in that it was the wisdom of Christ which was hidden in Old Testament scriptures that needed an inspired Apostle to bring them to the surface, which Paul was the Apostle during Acts to reveal them.  As we revisited the Genesis study, Wayne continued to look at the Days of Noe being compared to the Acts period in that God practiced longsuffering.  In the Acts it was for Israel to repent so Christ could return. We are encouraged to understand the ministries of the Apostle Paul.  You have to Rightly Divide Paul's writings.  He wrote 7 books during the Acts and 7 epistles after Acts.  Those written after Acts are our instructions for today.  In these books, we look at the One Baptism vs. those baptism's promoted during that Acts period.  The scripture reading was from 1 Corinthians 2:7 KJV
