Philippians 3:20 NKJV For our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, 1 Peter 1:12 (KJV) 12 Unto whom it was revealed, that not unto themselves, but unto us they did minister the things, which are now reported unto you by them that have preached the gospel unto you with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven; which things the angels desire to look into. 1 Corinthians 2:10 (KJV) But God hath revealed [them] unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God. 1 Corinthians 2:11 (KJV) For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.

Acts 2:38 (KJV) Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. Acts 2:39 (KJV) For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, [even] as many as the Lord our God shall call. Romans 10:9 (KJV) That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. Romans 10:10 (KJV) For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 1 Corinthians 15:55 (CSB) Where, death, is your victory? Where, death, is your sting? 1 Corinthians 15:56 (CSB) The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. 1 Corinthians 15:57 (CSB) But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ! 1 Corinthians 15:58 (CSB) Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, be steadfast, immovable, always excelling in the Lord’s work, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain. Romans 1:3 (KJV) Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh; Romans 1:4 (KJV) And declared [to be] the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead: Romans 1:5 (KJV) By whom we have received grace and apostleship, for obedience to the faith among all nations, for his name: 1 Corinthians 15:1 (KJV) Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 1 Corinthians 15:2 (KJV) By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. 1 Corinthians 15:3 (KJV) For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 1 Corinthians 15:4 (KJV) And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: Philip preached Isaiah 53 to him: Acts 8:35 (KJV) Then Philip opened his mouth, and began at the same scripture, and preached unto him Jesus. Acts 8:36 (KJV) And as they went on [their] way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, [here is] water; what doth hinder me to be baptized?

Ephesians 2:7 (KJV) That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in [his] kindness toward us through Christ Jesus. Ephesians 2:8 (KJV) For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: [it is] the gift of God: Ephesians 2:9 (KJV) Not of works, lest any man should boast. Ephesians 2:10 (KJV) For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. Matthew 7:17 (KJV) Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. Matthew 7:18 (KJV) A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither [can] a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. Matthew 7:19 (KJV) Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. Matthew 7:20 (KJV) Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them. Galatians 5:22 (NASB20) But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, Philippians 3:9 (KJV) And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith: Romans 3:26 (KJV) To declare, [I say], at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus. 2 Corinthians 5:21 (KJV) For he hath made him [to be] sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him. Luke 11:28 (NASB20) But He said, “On the contrary, blessed are those who hear the word of God and follow it.” John 14:6 (NASB20) Jesus *said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father except through Me. Psalm 26:2 (KJV) Examine me, O LORD, and prove me; try my reins and my heart. 2 Corinthians 13:5 (KJV) Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates? See Revelations Chapters 2 & 3, James Ch.2, Jude 1 Read John Chapter 15 in the context of Revelations Ch.2 & 3 John 14 New King James Version The Way, the Truth, and the Life 14 “Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me. 2 In My Father’s house are many [a]mansions; if it were not so, [b]I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also. 4 And where I go you know, and the way you know.” 5 Thomas said to Him, “Lord, we do not know where You are going, and how can we know the way?” 6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. The Father Revealed 7 “If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also; and from now on you know Him and have seen Him.” 8 Philip said to Him, “Lord, show us the Father, and it is sufficient for us.” 9 Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you so long, and yet you have not known Me, Philip? He who has seen Me has seen the Father; so how can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? 10 Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father in Me? The words that I speak to you I do not speak on My own authority; but the Father who dwells in Me does the works. 11 Believe Me that I am in the Father and the Father in Me, or else believe Me for the sake of the works themselves. The Answered Prayer 12 “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father. 13 And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 If you [c]ask anything in My name, I will do it. Jesus Promises Another Helper 15 “If you love Me, [d]keep My commandments. 16 And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another [e]Helper, that He may abide with you forever— 17 the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you. 18 I will not leave you orphans; I will come to you. Indwelling of the Father and the Son 19 “A little while longer and the world will see Me no more, but you will see Me. Because I live, you will live also. 20 At that day you will know that I am in My Father, and you in Me, and I in you. 21 He who has My commandments and keeps them, it is he who loves Me. And he who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and [f]manifest Myself to him.” 22 Judas (not Iscariot) said to Him, “Lord, how is it that You will manifest Yourself to us, and not to the world?” 23 Jesus answered and said to him, “If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him. 24 He who does not love Me does not keep My words; and the word which you hear is not Mine but the Father’s who sent Me. The Gift of His Peace 25 “These things I have spoken to you while being present with you. 26 But the [g]Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to yourremembrance all things that I said to you. 27 Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. 28 You have heard Me say to you, ‘I am going away and coming back to you.’ If you loved Me, you would rejoice because [h]I said, ‘I am going to the Father,’ for My Father is greater than I. 29 “And now I have told you before it comes, that when it does come to pass, you may believe. 30 I will no longer talk much with you, for the ruler of this world is coming, and he has nothing in Me.31 But that the world may know that I love the Father, and as the Father gave Me commandment, so I do.

Glorify Your Son, that Your Son also may glorify You, 2 as You have given Him authority over all flesh, that He [a]should give eternal life to as many as You have given Him. 3 And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent. 4 I have glorified You on the earth.

Coverdale and the Forgotten Labor of Bible Preservation Introduction Miles Coverdale is one of those names that gets walked past too quickly in the history of the English Bible. Men will stop at Wycliffe because Rome hated him after death, and rightly so. They will stop at Tyndale because he burned at the stake, and rightly so. They will stop at the King James Bible because it became the settled English Bible, and rightly so. But between the loud thunderclaps of history there are quieter men whom God used to move the Book forward. Coverdale was one of them. He was not the most dramatic figure in the story. He was not the man whose name gets quoted first in every discussion. He was not the martyr everyone remembers around the campfire of Bible history. But he was there, laboring, comparing, compiling, polishing, arranging, and helping carry the English Bible stream toward the day when it would come to rest in the Authorized Version. God uses men like that, and anyone who thinks only famous martyrs matter has not read his Bible very carefully. The Lord has always used quiet laborers. Noah built for years before the rain came. Bezaleel worked with his hands on the tabernacle. Baruch wrote Jeremiah’s words while Jeremiah bore the prophetic burden. Luke carefully gathered, wrote, and traveled, but he does not thunder like Peter or write with the doctrinal lightning of Paul. Tychicus carried letters that he did not write, but the letters he carried became Scripture in the hands of the churches. Aquila and Priscilla took Apollos aside and helped him understand the way of God more perfectly. Not every servant of God stands in the flame. Some preserve the lamp oil. Not every man dies at the stake. Some make sure the Book gets printed, polished, read, and passed forward. Coverdale belongs in that quieter company. He was not the whole river, but he was a faithful bend in the river. That matters because Bible preservation is not merely the story of one man with one pen and one moment of glory. It is the story of God using many instruments across many centuries. Some were bold as lions. Some were hunted like criminals. Some were scholars. Some were printers. Some were pastors. Some were copyists. Some were reformers with iron in their bones. Some were quieter laborers with patient hands. Coverdale reminds us that God’s preservation does not depend on human celebrity. God does not need men to be famous in order to use them. The English Bible did not come forward only through fire, though fire was there. It also came forward through desks, candles, manuscripts, comparisons, revisions, prayers, exile, printing presses, and men willing to do the tedious work that history often forgets. Coverdale and the forgotten labor of Bible preservation deserve attention because the Book in our hand came through more than famous names. It came through God using servants, seen and unseen, to keep His words moving. Chapter 1: God Uses Quiet Men in Loud Battles The Bible is full of men who served in loud battles without becoming the loudest name in the story. Everybody remembers David standing before Goliath, but somebody had to bring the report to the camp. Everybody remembers Moses lifting the rod, but Aaron and Hur held up his hands. Everybody remembers Paul writing doctrine that shakes the world, but somebody carried the epistles, copied them, read them aloud, and preserved them in the churches. God’s work is never as small as the one famous man standing in the spotlight. Behind visible moments are hidden labors, and behind hidden labors is the providence of God. That is how Bible preservation works. The Book did not come through history because every servant became famous. It came through because God used men whether fame found them or not. Coverdale belongs to the class of men who carried the work forward without receiving the same attention as the martyrs. Tyndale’s death blazes in the mind because fire is dramatic. Coverdale’s labor is quieter

🚨Why I Love Israel ❤️🇮🇱 I love Israel because that’s where Jesus was born. Every time I open my Bible, the stories come alive in that land — the miracles, the battles, the promises. Walking those streets feels like stepping straight into Scripture. I’ve stood where the First and Second Temples stood. I’ve been to the empty tomb where our Savior rose. Israel isn’t just another nation. It’s the most spiritual place on earth — the very heartbeat of God’s story. That’s exactly why the devil hates it so much. Israel is living proof that the Bible is true. Every new archaeological discovery confirms what God’s Word has always said. The Jewish people back in their ancient homeland after 2,000 years? That’s not politics — that’s prophecy fulfilled. You cannot truly love Jesus and not love the land where He walked, taught, died, and rose again. If this stirs your heart like it stirs mine… share it. Pray for Israel. Stand with Israel. The Bible isn’t just history. It’s happening right now. #Israel #HolyLand #Jesus #Bible #Christian #Faith

Tyndale’s Fire and the English Bible Introduction William Tyndale stands in the history of the English Bible like a man holding a torch in a dungeon full of priests who wanted the lights put out. He was not merely a translator with a sharp mind and a gift for language. He was a witness. He was a man who understood that the battle over the Bible was not an academic exercise, not a literary hobby, not a polite disagreement over wording, and not a harmless church debate. It was a war over whether the common man would hear God speak in his own tongue or remain chained to a religious system that fed him ceremonies while starving him of Scripture. Tyndale’s burden was simple enough for a child to understand and dangerous enough to shake Rome: he wanted the plowboy to know the Bible. That one thought contains enough gunpowder to blow the doors off a cathedral. A plowboy with Scripture is a threat to every priest who lives by keeping men ignorant. A farmer with an open Bible is more dangerous to false religion than a cardinal with a jeweled cross. A sinner who can read the gospel for himself is no longer at the mercy of a system selling grace through sacraments, penance, and religious fear. Tyndale did not enter a world that loved the Bible in English. He entered a world where Scripture in the common tongue was treated like contraband. Men were told the Bible was too dangerous for them, as if God wrote a Book His own sheep could not be trusted to read. That is always the lie of priestcraft. Rome did not fear ignorance. Rome profited from ignorance. Rome did not fear candles, relics, images, processions, Latin chants, robes, incense, holy water, and ceremonies. Rome had warehouses full of that stuff. What Rome feared was an English Bible in the hands of English people. Why? Because the Bible corrects the priest. The Bible judges the system. The Bible exposes a counterfeit gospel. The Bible tells men that Christ finished the work, that salvation is by grace through faith, that there is one mediator between God and men, that the blood of Jesus Christ cleanseth from all sin, and that no earthly religious machine has the right to stand between a sinner and the Saviour. That is why Tyndale’s work was not merely translation. It was warfare. The English Bible came through blood and persecution, and Tyndale’s fire is one of the brightest flames in that story. He labored, fled, printed, revised, suffered, was betrayed, imprisoned, strangled, and burned. But the fire that consumed his body did not consume his Bible. That is the difference between the word of God and the wrath of men. “But the word of God is not bound” (2 Timothy 2:9). Chains can bind the translator. Flames can burn the witness. Governments can seize the pages. Priests can condemn the work. But the word keeps moving. Tyndale died, but his words lived. His English phrasing moved into later Bibles and into the Authorized Version with such force that every English-speaking Bible believer still benefits from the fire he carried. Tyndale’s fire was not extinguished at the stake. It moved into the English Bible. Chapter 1: Tyndale Saw the Real Issue Was the Common Man Having Scripture Tyndale understood something that religious authorities always try to hide: the Bible in the common man’s language changes everything. It changes preaching. It changes worship. It changes conscience. It changes doctrine. It changes the relationship between the sheep and the hireling. It puts the voice of God in the hand of the man who was previously told to trust the system. That is why Tyndale’s famous desire for the plowboy to know Scripture better than the religious elite was not just a clever line. It was a declaration of war. He was saying that the words of God belong in the hands of ordinary people, not locked away behind Latin, clerical permission, and priestly interpretation. The common man with Scripture becomes dangerous because he can compare. That
