What is not the Lord’s Supper?

We are a Christian country where 97% of population declared themselves Christians at the population census. That’s why, the term “Lord’s Supper” is known by almost all of us.

Impressions after testing the operating system Ubuntu 7.10(Gutsy Gibbon)

Give thanks for the progress of the Gospel

Apostle Paul, whose 14 epistles of the New Testament are, used to begin each of them giving thanks to God for the way He works in the lives and churches of the recipients of that specific epistle. He does the same thing in the Epistle to Colossians and he writes:

So, some that have an outside religion [...]

Jesus Christ is the mystery of our salvation

Apostle Paul uses the term “mystery of God” for many times in the Epistles addressed to the churches from Asia (Colossians, Ephesians), saying that Jesus Christ is this mystery. The use of this term was imposed by the presence of gnostics’ heresy.

The term gnosticism comes from the Greek word gnosis that means “knowledge”. Gnosticism [...]
