Romans Chapter 1 Distributed by: KJV Bible Studies Website: www.KjvBibleStudies.net e-mail: [email protected] Introduction: We begin a new study on the book of Romans this week. This book was authored by Paul and written to the people there in Rome. We see in Chapter one the doctrine of which the apostle Paul wrote, set forth the fulfillment of the promises by the prophets. It spoke of the Son of God, even Jesus the Saviour, the promised Messiah, who came from David as to his human nature but was also declared to be the Son of God, by the Divine power which raised him from the dead I. The Salutation Rom 1:1 Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God, Rom 1:2 (Which he had promised afore by his prophets in the holy scriptures,) Rom 1:3 Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh; Paul speaks of himself as being a servant of Jesus Christ. There truly is no greater opportunity that we can have on this earth than to bring our lives under subjection and be a servant to the Lord Jesus Christ. Paul learned this early after his conversion on the road to Damascus, and lived his life dedicated to God. Before Paul was saved, he was a servant to sin and slave to Satan. Now Paul was a servant of Christ because he belonged to God. Continue Reading in PDF

Genesis Chapter 47 Distributed by: KJV Bible Studies Email: [email protected] Website: www.KjvBibleStudies.net Memory verses for this week: 1Ti 3:4 One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity; 1Ti 3:5 (For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?) Introduction: We continue our study on the book of Genesis this week as Jacob and his family move into their new home in the land of Goshen in Egypt. We begin this week's lesson as Jacob and his sons come before Pharaoh. I. Jacob and His Sons before Pharaoh Gen 47:1 Then Joseph came and told Pharaoh, and said, My father and my brethren, and their flocks, and their herds, and all that they have, are come out of the land of Canaan; and, behold, they are in the land of Goshen. Gen 47:2 And he took some of his brethren, even five men, and presented them unto Pharaoh. Joseph first comes and tells Pharaoh that his family have arrived from the land of Canaan and they now are in the land of Goshen. He first announces their arrival and then took five of his brethren in before Pharaoh.They are asked what their occupation is, and they tell him they are shepherds. Honesty is normally the best policy, although this was not the advice Joseph gave them in the end of chapter 46. Continue Reading in PDF:
Genesis Chapter 44 Distributed by: KJV Bible Studies Email: [email protected] Website: www.KjvBibleStudies.net Introduction: We continue our study on the book of Genesis this week as we pickup after the meal Joseph prepared for his brothers on their return trip to Egypt when they brought young Benjamin along with them. I. A Plan to Apprehend the Departing Brethren Gen 44:1 And he commanded the steward of his house, saying, Fill the men's sacks with food, as much as they can carry, and put every man's money in his sack's mouth. Gen 44:2 And put my cup, the silver cup, in the sack's mouth of the youngest, and his corn money. And he did according to the word that Joseph had spoken. Gen 44:3 As soon as the morning was light, the men were sent away, they and their asses. Joseph commands the steward of the house to fill the sacks and to put their money back in the sacks. So the brothers' sacks are filled to the limit. This reminds us of our Lord's generosity in giving unto us who are so undeserving. Also, not only are the bags filled to capacity, but each man's money was placed in their sacks. Remember that the bread of life, God's salvation, cannot be bought with money. One brother was to have something special placed in his bag. It was Joseph's silver cup which was placed in Benjamin's sack. Silver typifies the price of redemption. Continue reading in PDF:
Genesis Chapter 40 Distributed by: KJV Bible Studies Email: [email protected] Website: www.KjvBibleStudies.net Introduction: We continue our study on the book of Genesis this week as Joseph is placed in prison and by the gift of God is able to interpret dreams. I. Joseph and Pharaoh's Officers Gen 40:1 And it came to pass after these things, that the butler of the king of Egypt and his baker had offended their lord the king of Egypt. Gen 40:2 And Pharaoh was wroth against two of his officers, against the chief of the butlers, and against the chief of the bakers. Gen 40:3 And he put them in ward in the house of the captain of the guard, into the prison, the place where Joseph was bound. Gen 40:4 And the captain of the guard charged Joseph with them, and he served them: and they continued a season in ward. Serving in the royal palace is sometimes more difficult than one might think, and both the chief butler and the chief baker find themselves placed in prison. Somehow they had offended the king. "Offended" is the Hebrew verb "chata" and literally means they "sinned." It is not clear from the account given, but perhaps they had been disloyal to the King. It certainly was not a coincident that they found themselves there. It was clearly providential that they were placed in the same ward with Joseph. Remember there are no accidents with God and that the heart of the king is in the hand of the Lord. Continue Reading in PDF
Genesis Chapter 36 Distributed by: KJV Bible Studies Email: [email protected] Website: www.KjvBibleStudies.net I. Listing of the Generations Gen 36:1 Now these are the generations of Esau, who is Edom. Gen 36:2 Esau took his wives of the daughters of Canaan; Adah the daughter of Elon the Hittite, and Aholibamah the daughter of Anah the daughter of Zibeon the Hivite; Gen 36:3 And Bashemath Ishmael's daughter, sister of Nebajoth. Chapter 36 begins with the departure of Esau. Verse 6 records the separation of two brothers and the reason for their separation. They both were so blessed that their riches were more than that they might dwell together. Their cattle were so numerous that it says the land could not bear them. So Esau left and the dwelling place of Esau became Mount Seir. Continue reading in PDF:
