Ephesians is a book in the New Testament, and it is an Epistle. This essentially means that it was a letter, written by the apostle Paul to the church in Ephesus in the first century AD. It is didactic (direct teaching), not narrative or poetry. Ephesians is 6 chapters long and contains important teachings about the sinfulness of mankind and God's mercy in saving us. A taste of Ephesians: (Ephesians 2:1-10, ESV) "And you were dead in the trespasses and sins [2] in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience- [3] among whom we all once lived in the passions of our flesh, carrying out the desires of the body and the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, like the rest of mankind. [4] But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, [5] even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ-by grace you have been saved- [6] and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, [7] so that in the coming ages he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. [8] For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, [9] not a result of works, so that no one may boast. [10] For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them."
Faith allows us to trust in something greater than ourselves, find strength during difficult times, and have hope for the future. It can provide comfort, guidance, and a sense of purpose in life.
AnswerWe know nothing for certain other than what is in Paul's Epistle to Philemon. However, the epistle was a private letter, and the fact that it was preserved and subsequently copied throughout the Christian community, gives us hope that Philemon did indeed take Onesimus back without sever punishment.
The First Amendment to the United States Constitution gives us the freedom of religion. It prohibits the government from establishing a state religion and protects individuals' rights to practice their chosen religion without interference from the government.
The Holy Spirit fills many purposes. Two of those purposes are to testify of truth and to comfort and sustain in times of trial. Jesus knew that the apostles would be teaching His gospel. They would need the Holy Ghost to testify to those listening of the truthfulness of their words. Jesus also knew that they would suffer persecution for their beliefs and missionary efforts. They would need the Holy Ghost to give them comfort in the midst of the persecution and a sustaining power to help them on their missions, considering how hard those missions would be.

A:The General Epistle of Jude does not say directly to whom it was supposedly written, with verse 3 simply addressing the reader as 'Beloved': "Beloved, although I was making every effort to write to you about our common salvation ..."The epistle clearly identifies itself as having been written in the second century. Verse 17 tells us that the apostles had spoken of these things beforehand, verse 18-19 speak of things that were once told about the mockers of Jude's time, while verse 3 tells us that the Christian faith was once (long ago) passed on to the saints, all of which confirm that this epistle was written during the second century, long after those alive at the time of Jesus were already dead.The epistle was written using the name Jude, whether of the apostle Jude or of the brother of Jesus, to ensure ready acceptance of the author's message. As with any pseudepigraphical work we can not assume that the epistle was written to a particular person as indicated, but rather it was an encyclical to the Church as a whole, with the addressee reference merely to give the epistle further authenticity.
