Imagine that you are going about your day. It is just like any other day. Someone comes up to you. They seem to know you. They know things about you that no one knows. They show you things that are impossible. They speak words of wisdom, unlike anything you have ever heard. They ask you to come and see. Imagine Jesus came up and chose you.

This was a reality for twelve men called to be apostles. Twelve men who Jesus personally selected to be with Him. These men where present for everything. All of the teaching sessions, including the explanations afterwards.  Each and every one of the…

An armor-bearer’s most obvious responsibility, as suggested by the title, is helping a warrior carry their weapons into a battle. The Greek word is ar'-mer-bar'-er (nose' keli; Greek uses a phrase, ho airon ta skeue, literally "the one carrying the armor").

In our Bibles we can see many references to the “Armor-Bearer” as one who carried the large shield and perhaps other weapons for a king (1 Samuel 31:4), commander-in-chief (2 Samuel 23:37), captain (1 Samuel 14:7), or champion (1 Samuel 17:7). All warriors of distinction had such an attendant. Rather than perish by the hand of a woman, Abimelech called upon…

    Several years ago I decided I needed a hobby. I had many interests – basketball, fantasy baseball, music – but I engaged in all of these past times with members of the church where I preached, or with fellow Christians in the area. I needed a hobby that would put me in contact with people from all walks of life. So I looked up the closest chapter of the Barbershop Harmony Society, and over the last 17 years I have made a large and diverse bunch of friends.

You’ve probably studied a book of the Bible chapter by chap­ter, or even verse by verse. You may have heard preaching about the need for “book, chapter, and verse” as authority for what we do. And doubtless you’ve learned to cite Scripture by book, chap­ter, and verse (e.g., John 3:16; Ephesians 6:1; etc.). We do these things, naturally, because each book of the Bible is divided into chapters and verses. But it wasn’t always so.

The Bible’s inspired authors didn’t use chapter divisions or verse numbering. While many Bible books are arranged…
