Welcome To BARAH MINISTRIES

a Christian Church

 
JOH 10:1-2
“Truly, truly, I (the Lord Jesus Christ) say to you, he who does not enter by the door into the fold of the sheep (in the sheep pen), but (continually) climbs up some other way, he is a thief (by plan) and a robber (a false shepherd trying to steal the sheep through criminal means).//But he who enters by the door (legitimately) is a shepherd of the sheep.”
 
JOH 10:3-4
“To him (the true Shepherd) the doorkeeper opens (the door and lets Him in anytime He wants to come in), and the sheep hear his voice, and he calls his own sheep by (His own) name and leads them out (from the pen).//When he (the true Shepherd) puts forth all his own, he goes ahead of them, and the sheep follow him because they know his voice.”
 
JOH 10:5-6 
“A stranger they (the sheep) simply will not follow, but (the sheep) will flee from him, because they do not know the voice of strangers.”//This figure of speech (parable) Jesus spoke to them, but they did not understand what those things were which He (the Lord Jesus Christ) had been saying to them.
 
JOH 10:7-8 
So Jesus said to them again, “Truly, truly, I say to you, I (the Lord Jesus Christ) am the door of the sheep.//All who came before Me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear them.”
 
JOH 10:9-10
“I am (and keep on being) the (one and only) door (to salvation); if (3) anyone enters through (believing in) Me (the Lord Jesus Christ), he will be saved, and (he) will go in (to salvation) and out (to experience the Zoe Life) and (he will) find pasture.//The thief (the false shepherd) comes only to steal (with deception) and (to) kill (by use of criminal means) and (to) destroy (neutralize); I (the Lord Jesus Christ) came that they (believers in Christ) may have (the Zoe) life, and have it abundantly.”
 
JOH 10:11
“I (the Lord Jesus Christ) am (and keep on being) the good shepherd (the One who provides and preserves and protects); the good shepherd lays down His life for the sheep.”

ACT 13:2
While they (the five men in verse 1) were ministering to (on behalf of) the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, “Set apart for Me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them.”
 
PAUL’S RESUME
8. Minister of the Gospel of God
 
GAL 1:11
For I (Paul) would have you know, brethren (believers in Christ in the Galatian region), that the gospel (message) which was preached by me is not according to man (it did not come from man).
 
GAL 1:12 
For I (Paul) neither received it (the gospel message) from man, nor was I taught it (the gospel message by a man), but I received it (the gospel message) through a (direct) revelation of Jesus (the) Christ.
 
2PE 1:20-21
But know this first of all, that no prophecy of Scripture is a matter of one’s own (private) interpretation,//for no prophecy was ever made by an act of human will, but men moved by (God) the Holy Spirit spoke (directly) from (the exact thinking of THE) God (the Lord Jesus Christ).

When I Think About Home
 
EPH 3:8
To me (Paul), the very least of all saints (believers in Christ), this grace was given (to me by God), to preach to the Gentiles the unfathomable riches of Christ…
 
EPH 3:9 
…and to bring to light what is the administration (oikonomia…dispensation) of the mystery which for ages has been hidden in (THE) God (the Lord Jesus Christ) who created (the) all things (JOH 1:3)…
 
EPH 3:10 
…so that the manifold wisdom of God (the Father) might now be made known through the church to the rulers and the authorities in the heavenly places.
 
EPH 3:11 
This was in accordance with the eternal purpose which He (God the Father) carried out in Christ Jesus our Lord…
 
EPH 3:12 
…in whom we (believers in Christ) have boldness and confident (direct) access through (our) faith in (union with) Him.
 
PAUL’S RESUME 
9. The Apostle to the Gentiles
 
EPH 3:1
For this reason I, Paul, the prisoner of Christ Jesus for the sake of you Gentiles — 
 
EPH 3:2 
…if (1) indeed you have heard of the stewardship of God’s grace which was given to me for you (and you have)…
 
EPH 3:3 
…that by revelation there was made known to me (by God for you) the mystery (doctrines of the Church Age), as I wrote before in brief.
 
EPH 3:4
By referring to this, when you read you can understand my insight into the mystery (doctrine) of (the indwelling) Christ (the Messiah)…
 
EPH 3:5 
…which in other generations was not made known to the sons of men, as it has now been revealed to His holy apostles and prophets in the Spirit (en Pneumati…to those with the indwelling Spirit)…
 
EPH 3:6 
…to be specific, that the Gentiles are fellow heirs and fellow members of the body (of Christ), and (the Gentiles are) fellow partakers of the promise in Christ Jesus through the gospel (message)…

…of which (gospel message) I (Paul) was made a minister, according to the gift of God’s grace which was given to me according to the working of His (enabling) power.
