| Charles Lawson | 05/24/2023 (WN) | Song of Solomon 4:15-16 | The Typology of Wind and Water Show Their Importance in the Bible. The Fountain Represents God the Father, the Well is God the Son, and the River is God the Spirit. Wind and Water Have a Spiritual Union in the Garden as the Water is the Source of Life and the Wind Moves in Our Heart. We Each Have a Reason that God Called Us to be Members of His Family, and We Need to Keep Moving in Him Like a River. | |
| Charles Lawson | 05/17/2023 (WN) | Romans 8:1-2 | Romans Chapter 8 Is About the Fruit (the Reward) of the Atonement. It Would Be Fellowship with the Father for Those in Christ Who Walk after the Spirit, Not After the Flesh. And How Can We Do That, to Know or Change Our Own Heart Except That the Holy Spirit Sent by Christ Jesus Indwells and Instructs Us, and He Communicates with the Father, Interceding and Groaning on Our Behalf. | |
| Charles Lawson | 05/10/2023 (WN) | Philippians 1:21 | Continuation on the Hebrew Roots Movement Which Seeks to Attack From Inside the Christian Church That is Left Vulnerable Due to Ignorance. The Apostle Paul Understood the Essence of Sin and That "in the Flesh Dwelleth No Good Thing"; and When You Live in the Flesh You Live in Deception. Reading of Testimonies From People Who Have Gotten Out of the Hebrew Roots Movement. Early Church's Response to HRM in Acts 15:7-11. | |
| Charles Lawson | 05/03/2023 (WN) | Genesis 28:10-18 Hebrews 4:1-11 |
The Upcoming Coronation of Charles III and the Tradition of the Stone of Scone Provide a Springboard into History and the Mix of Religion into Politics. The Scriptural Gives God's Perspective That in Christ There Is Neither Jew Nor Greek, Bond Nor Free, But All Are One--One Body (the One Church) of Christ. | April 2023 |
| Charles Lawson | 04/26/2023 (WN) | Genesis 2:8-9 | Two Trees Were in the Garden of Eden: the Tree of Life and the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. The Tree of Life Shows Up Again in the Book of Revelation. When Satan Tricked Eve, He Told the Truth About the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, but Then He Tacked On a Lie, and So She Was Deceived. That Is the Pattern For Deception On Into the Tribulation. | |
| Charles Lawson | 04/19/2023 (WN) | John 1:1-14 | With Jesus Incarnation Light is Coming to the World. Those Who Reject the Light Are Left to Walk in Complete Darkness.

A Quick Introduction to Revolutionary AI. | |
| Charles Lawson | 04/12/2023 (WN) | II Kings 1:10 Luke 9:44-56 |
Contrast the Law with Grace and Truth, and Remember This: Grace and Truth Is Come by Jesus Christ. Such Compassion, Such Grace, Jesus Showed So Patiently, Tirelessly, to Crowds and to Individuals When He Walked Among Us and He Is Still the Answer Now. Christians Are Notably "People of the Book" and "People of the Person of Christ Jesus." Two Particular Pleas for Prayer Coming from the British Isles. | |
| Charles Lawson | 04/05/2023 (WN) | Satan is a Spirit Being, and He Can Take On Many Forms Such As the Serpent Who Deceived Eve, the One Fallen From Heaven, and the Anointed Cherub Who Covers. Satan's Animosity with Man is a Major Theme in the Bible as He Wants to Destroy the Image of God in Man. The Curse of Sin Affects All of Creation and Every Living Creature. There Are Many Questions With No Easy Answers, but This We Are Assured, His Blood Still Lives to Cleanse Us of Our Sin. | March 2023 |

A Sampling of Some Other Verses Which Warrant Probing. | ||
| Charles Lawson | 03/22/2023 (WN) | Matthew 11:29 | Jesus Was the Consummate Servant of the Lord. He Divested Himself of His Knowledge to Learn by Tutelage of the Holy Spirit, Even as We Learn.

| Charles Lawson | 03/15/2023 (WN) | Matthew 10:4 | Judas Iscariot Had the Privilege of Being One of the 12 Disciples; He Was Used to Fulfil Prophecy.

Also, Emails That Give Us a Sampling of Testimonies of the Longsuffering and Grace of Our Saviour. | |
| Charles Lawson | 03/08/2023 (WN) | Hebrews 7:1-4 | Quite Thorough, Well-Laid Path, Starts with Melchisedec, King of Salem.

| Charles Lawson | 02/22/2023 (WN) | This Psalm Is a Rare Old Testament Passage That Lays the Foundation For Coming to Christ and Shows Elements of Repentance.

Overview of Different Types of Christs and Anti-Christs in the Bible With a Focus on Solomon Who Started Well But Later Hardened His Heart and Turned From God. That So, the Man of Sin Could Come From the Professing Christian Church. | ||
| Charles Lawson | 02/15/2023 (WN) | The Book of I John Establishes the Foundational Principle of Man's Conflicting Two Natures. Being Born of God Means the Holy Spirit Resides in Us. Because God's Spirit Cannot Sin, a Constant Conflict Exists Between the Mind and the Body of the Believer as Spirit and Flesh Fight Against Each Other for Control. This Book is Written for Believers to Establish That Salvation Is Eternal. Eternal Life Cannot Be Lost Once God Is Accepted into the Heart of a Believer. | ||
| Charles Lawson | 02/08/2023 (WN) | Looking At the Differences in Living Under the Law of the Old Testament and in the Current Age of Grace That Started in the New Testament, With Notable Attention to the Man Picking Up Sticks on the Sabbath and How He Was Punished Under the Law. When Going Back and Forth in Reading God's Word, It Is Important to Ask: Who Is He Talking To, When Did He Say It, and What Is the Context? We Must Pray Over His Word and Seek Wisdom by Asking God. | ||
| Charles Lawson | 02/01/2023 (WN) | John 15:1 | The Passage Starts Off with the Last of the Seven "I Am" Statements From Christ Saying He Is the True Vine, Which Brings on Comparisons of Jesus and Moses and Also of the First and Last Adam. Overview of the Meaning of John Chapter 15 and the Book of First John: Both Written for Christians Dealing with Fellowship in Christ. | January 2023 |
| Charles Lawson | 01/25/2023 (WN) | Colossians 1:13-18 | A Rich Nugget of Christology in Our Reference Text, Saying Who Christ Is as the Deliverer, Redeemer, Forgiver, and the Creator. The Message is Capped Off with a Short List of Evidences in a Local Church as to Whether Christ Jesus Has the Preeminence There. | |
| Charles Lawson | 01/18/2023 (WN) | Philippians 1:21 | Of All the Varied Reasons People Use to Give Purpose to Their Life, Nothing Succors or Completes or Outlasts Loving the Lord Jesus Christ and Focusing Upon Him. A Beginning Sense of What It Means: the Life of God In Us. And, Knowing for Yourself What You Believe, Why You Believe It, and Holding to It Unless There's a Real Good Reason. The Jehovah/Yahweh Rationales a Case in Point. | |
| David Pressley | 01/11/2023 (WN) | Acts 26:13-18 | Even Before the Lot of Vicious, Incestuous Politicians, Paul Showed Courtesy and Capability and Obedience in Telling His Personal Testimony and the Plan of Salvation That the Lord Jesus Has for Every One. | |

| Caleb Wilson | 12/21/2022 (WN) | Matthew 9:9, 12 | "God Had One Son and He Made Him a Preacher."

Look in Scripture at Two Particular Preachers: Stephen and Phillip--Two Different Ways God Uses His Preachers. | |
| Charles Lawson | 12/14/2022 (WN) | Matthew 2:1-3 | They Are Much to be Commended: Strangers from Afar, Seeking Out a Foreign King. The Bible Never Says How They Knew What to Look For or When, But Preacher Brings Together: Prophecies Reasonably Available to Magi of Babylon; the Pervading Jewish Mindset Toward the Messiah They Expect; and the Overriding Biblical Truth That God Himself Orchestrates Every Dispensation in Succession. | |
| Charles Lawson | 12/07/2022 (WN) | Matthew 2:1-6 | Aside of the Evidence When Jesus Lives in Our Hearts, Ample Cultural and Historical Accounts Exist Such as from First Century Roman Historian Tacitus and a Flavius Josephus' Antiquities of the Jew. Studying and Comparing Scripture with Scripture Reveals Even More--Layers of Prophecies, Subtle Proclamations of Christ's Deity, and Useful Clues to Such as the Magi Who Followed the Light They Were Given. | November 2022 |

| Charles Lawson | 07/13/2022 (WN) | The Apostle Paul Saw Himself as the Chiefest of Sinners. Throughout The Bible We See Numerous Examples of Different Type of Sinners Such As the Religious Sinner, the Hard-Working Sinner, the Desperate Sinner, the Humiliated Sinner, and the Awakened Sinner.

| Charles Lawson | 07/06/2022 (WN) | A Prime Example of Misinterpreting the Word of God Is Given in Our Reference Texts.

| Charles Lawson | 05/18/2022 (WN) | Luke 17:18 | A Discovery of the Curse Tablet on Mt Ebal Showed the Name of God in Ancient Hebrew Text, Solidifying What The Bible Says.

| Charles Lawson | 03/23/2022 (WN) | Joshua 7:1-10 | After Defeating Jericho, Joshua Was Left to Decide on Where to Go Next. He Felt His Victory Over Jericho Would Give Him an Easy Road Through Ai.

| Caleb Wilson | 03/16/2022 (WN) | Galatians 1:3-8 Galatians 2:15-16 |
The People of Galatia Were Struggling With Wanting To Go Back To The Law and Live In The Flesh. Therefore, Galatians Is Paul's Polemic Against the Spread of False Teachings in Christianity. In Modern Times, We as Christians Need to Be Aware of the Deceptions Against God. Christianity Has an Abundance of Cult-Like Sects That Spread Misinformation. As a Church, We Need to Be at the Forefront of Talking About Sin and How We Cannot Work Our Way Into the Presence of God. | |

The Spirit That Worketh in the Children of Disobedience |
Charles Lawson | 02/16/2022 (WN) | II Timothy 3:1-5 | How Similar Is II Timothy 3:1-5 to Romans Chapter One, But in Timothy--Paul Is Addressing People Who Are Professing Christians!

| John Beck | 01/19/2022 (WN) | Matthew 28:19-20 Acts 1:8 |
When God Calls You, He Will Equip You. The Church Belongs to Christ. God Has Always Been and Still Is Most Ardently Desirous That All Should Be Saved: The Great Commission Is Directed to Every Believer to Carry Out In Some Shape or Form. In Isaiah, God Was Looking For Someone to Send. In Ezekiel, He Looked for Someone to Stand in the Gap.... | |
| Charles Lawson | 01/12/2022 (WN) | Acts 2:1-4 | Acts Provides Us With an Historical Reference to the Early Church Age. Paul, the Apostle to the Gentiles, Interprets the Cross of Christ.
