Salvation through Born Again

wife and Born Again children.
Moreover, he should rule his
household carefully.
38 If anyone is appointed as the
worker to help the church, he
should not be without the helmet
of salvation.
39He should consecrate the hel-
met of salvation to the Lord. He
should have one mind and one
heart with the stewards.
40 Finally, God planned to build
His kingdom through truth and
life ministry societies of world
before the foundation of the wor-
ld according to the will of God.
41 There are nobles, elders,
ministers, overseers (bishops)
taskmasters, teachers, workers
who are appointed as the helping
members according to the almig-
hty plan of God.
42-44 Teach them that they sho-
uld be born again and built on
the foundation of God’s word.
They should understand the will
of God and do it. They should
be blameless, not lovers of mon-
ey, not covetous, husband of one
wife, lovers of truth, respectable,
hospitable, gentle, sober, free
men, not angry, self controlled,
rebukes of false teachings, prea-

chers of the living gospel timely,
not beaters of wife, but keeping
their children under their control.
They shouldn’t be lazy but rath-
er should bring glory to the Lord.
45The Princeps (rulers), disci-
ples, men of God, evangelists,
shepherds, ambassadors,and
stewards are the spiritual bodies
who make the believers perfect
by the living word of God so that
the body of Christ may be edified
day by day for ministry. Anyone
can speak as a prophet among
these as the Spirit of the Lord
inspires him. Prophecy is nothing
but preach the word to church.
46 Tell them that they should be
appointed according to the will
of God by being examined in all
things like the helping body parts.
47 Tell them clearly that they
should live to experience the
discipline and punishment of
God, which is appointed in truth
and life ministry societies of wor-
ld. Same things happen like
helping bodies.
48 Resurrection of the Lord
Jesus is the source of our hope.

God. Preach as a wise man. Do
the works as a man of order. Be

Let all people see your patience.
CHAPTER 4
OH man of hope! Think over
these things. That is - If anyone
is a political leader or gentile aut-
hority, then don’t give him an op-
portunity to rule over you in the
church.
2 Because God granted us the
authority of glorious kingdom by
making us Born Again and rulers.
3 So, teach to the saints that they
should understand the authority
of God and submit to the autho-
rities according to the will of God.
4 Know that any country or any
authority in contrast to the will of
God will not stand.
5 Intercede so that the authority
of the devil may be collapsed
according to the will of God.
6 Our Lord will suppress the pri-
de of proud. Therefore be hum-
ble.
7 To see the blessed hope, com-
fort and patience in the clouds,
8 work with Jesus and continue
in the construction of the king-
dom of God.
9 Intercede and pray with hope
day and night that all obstacles
for the coming of the Lord may
The Salvation is the Gift of God
be removed.
10 Warn the saints so that ever-
yone, who is born of God, may
know how to behave in the living
church of God and dark sinful
world and increase their hope.
11Moreover, warn them to stu-
dy the word of God, source of
hope, orderly with devotion.
12 We received the covenant of
promise so that we may beco-
me the heirs of hope of eternal
life; we may have the hope of
joy with courage;
13 we may become the perfect
by the seriousness of the Spirit
of God in us.
14 Our hope in Christ may not
be weak but rather it may be
strong and stable. It comes with
us to take us to a better country
than the country of milk and
honey.
15 Let us have consistent assur-
ance about all that we confess
before God on that day. Our
hope is immortal with glorious
and perfect.
16 The creation became two
parts. One part is immortal and
another part is mortal.
17Therefore, all the immortal is
true. There is natural body; the-
