New Testament Commentary

A comprehensive study guide with verse-by-verse commentary on all of Philippians. The theme is the mind of Christ in the believer and to love one another. Apostle Paul thanks the Philippians for their gift and their “fellowship in the gospel from the first day until now” (1:5). He is confident that “he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ” (1:6). Paul wants the Philippians (and us) to know that it is most excellent to suffer for sharing the gospel of Christ (1 Corinthians 15:3, 4) and the mystery (Ephesians 3:1-9). Prayer is the most ...

When Jesus spoke, people listened. When Jesus traveled, people followed. When Jesus arrived, hearts and lives were transformed. No other Gospel gives such extensive explanation to Jesus' ministry as the Gospel of John. The first three Gospels describe events, but the fourth Gospel describes the significance behind those events. Through miracles, parables, and relationships, Jesus shows how He is the fulfillment of God's promises of old.

How can we persevere through persecution? First-century Christians wrestled with this question. They were often harassed, slandered, beaten, and ostracized for their faith. As they endured these difficult circumstances, we can imagine their joy upon receiving two encouraging letters from the Apostle Peter.

The world is filled with counterfeits. And the church is not immune, as false ideas and doctrines can infect believers and congregations. So when it comes to spiritual teachers, messages, and movements, how can we tell fact from fiction? The answers are found in 2 Peter, 2 & 3 John, and Jude, where the apostles provide practical insights for discerning truth.

Galatians is the clearest letter for distinguishing the difference between “prophecy” and “mystery.” The Lord Jesus Christ has two ministries: one on earth to Israel as recorded in the four gospels and early Acts, and the other from heaven to the Body of Christ as recorded in Romans to Philemon. The Galatians had “fallen from grace” and gone back under the law. This legalistic error is prevalent among Christians today. This error prevents believers from functioning as God intends them to and from rewards at the Judgment Seat of Christ.

Koontz. ------ “The teaching of the Lord falls into five clear discourses marked off by Matthew’s repetition of “after Jesus finished these words,” (7:28, 11:1, 13:53, 19:1) with the final discourse ending, “after Jesus finished all these words” (26:1).
