Thessalonians Corps Notes
A. ROMANS "Doctrine and Instruction" The gospel of God: never hidden, but "promised afore." B. CORINTHIANS "Reproof" Practical failure to exhibit the teaching of Romans through not seeing their standing as having died and risen with Christ. C. GALATIANS "Correction" Doctrinal failure as to the teaching of Romans. Beginning with the truth of the new birth, they were soon removed, and sought to be made perfect in the old nature. A. EPHESIANS "Doctrine and Instruction" The mystery of God, always hidden, never before revealed. Individual Jews and Gentiles gathered out and made one new man in Christ. Seated in the heavenlies with Christ. B. PHILIPPIANS "Reproof" Practical failure to exhibit the teaching of Ephesians in manifesting the mind of Christ as members of one body. C. COLOSSIANS "Correction" Doctrinal failure as to the teaching of Ephesians. Wrong doctrines which come from "not holding the Head." A. THESSALONIANS "Doctrine and Instruction" Not only "dead and risen with Christ (as in Romans); not only seated in the heavenlies with Christ (as in Ephesians); but "caught up to meet the Lord in the air, so to be forever with the Lord." In Romans, justified with Christ; in Ephesians sanctified In Christ; in Thessalonians, glorified with Christ. No "reproof." No "correction." All praise and thanksgiving.

To boast is to go beyond truth, on our thinking, when a man's boasting. So immediately I've got a problem in my head, of understanding. So when you have a problem of understanding you have to figure out, well do you really understand what's written, or is it in translation? Remember Foundational Class. So, the thing I do now is I write this word down on my paper in those spaces I allow and I tell you, I don't write too big. Sometimes you need more room than you think. You won't for this particular thing, I guess, but I keep it where I can
