Book – Paul, The Moses of the New Testament Church

Posted on March 22, 2022 by kgfranklin1@gmail.com

This month, March 2022, marks the one (1) year anniversary of the publication of our first book for Galilee Publishing, “Paul, The Moses of the New Testament Church!”

This book is a comprehensive New Testament (NT) Discipleship training resource that provides practical “How’To” Scriptural guidance on living today as an NT DISCIPLE and FOLLOWER of JESUS CHRIST!

This large textbook is 8 1/2″ x 11″ x 3 1/2, weighs 1/2 lbs contains more than 600 pages includes more than 400 passages of Scriptures, contains 33 illustrations/tables/charts, and includes a comprehensive index.

This book examines the common characteristic shared in the Holy Scriptures by “ONLY” Paul and Moses. These shared characteristics identify Paul as the Lawgiver to the NT Church as Moses was the Lawgiver to the Old Testament (OT) Church. The book also explains why JESUS selected Paul to go to the Gentiles, kings, and Jews. (Acts 9:15) It also reveals why Paul, like Moses, became the most prolific writers in the Old and New Testaments, respectively, writing the oracles of GOD for those they were called to lead.

Most importantly, this book guides the way to learning how to WALK and PLEASE GOD today as an NT Disciple of JESUS CHRIST. It explains that JESUS intended for the NT Church to learn discipleship through the writings of His Apostles, especially Paul who accounted for 14 of the 27 books in the NT. (St. Matthew 28:18-20; Acts 1:2) Paul’s books, especially Galatians, Ephesians, Philippians, and Colossians, provide practical commandments from JESUS on how to live as His NT Disciples. 1 and 2 Thessalonians teach about JESUS return. 1 and 2 Timothy serves as great doctrinal books for the body of JESUS CHRIST; the Eklessia (the called-out ones, the Church). GOD dictated Hebrews to Paul and explains revelations that had been shut up since the beginning of times. Collectively, all the writings of the Apostles and others who wrote the NT provide the Scriptures that are key to Discipleship. (1 Peter 2:1-9; St. Matthew 4:4)

This book contains the wisdom, knowledge, and understanding that Kelvin gained over more than 50 years of reading the Holy Scriptures and seeking GOD’s will and purpose for his life.

The book is available for purchase at the Galilee Publishing online bookstore: https://www.GalileePublishingShop.com. The book is on sale for $49.99. The book is also offered in a basic version that sells for $34.99.

The book is also available via Amazon: Paul, The Moses of the New Testament Church.

What is True Discipleship in JESUS CHRIST?

Posted on March 18, 2022 by kgfranklin1@gmail.com

What does TRUE DISCIPLESHIP in JESUS CHRIST LOOK LIKE? Have you seen any evidence of it in your life? What about others who say they are “Christians?” Do you feel that you are far from GOD despite routine attendance, giving, and supporting of the “Organized Church?” Do you feel that you have not grown spiritually? Come and learn with us through the Holy Scriptures!

The Holy Spirit helped me to understand that DISCIPLESHIP is a lost teaching of JESUS CHRIST that is rarely mentioned or taught in the “Organized Church” or today’s “Christian denominations.” The modern “Organized Church” has focused on “membership,” and mostly ignored the concept of DISCIPLESHIP. The “Organized Church” focuses on its own growth while ignoring the growth of the individuals who are supposed to be the living members of the New Testament (NT) Church. (1 Peter 2:2-9)

However, the LORD placed it in my heart that I needed to earnestly focus on teaching DISCIPLESHIP to enable individuals to become wise virgins, prepared for when the LORD returns. (St. Matt. 25:1-13)

FIRST, let me state unequivocally, that you cannot be a TRUE DISCIPLE of JESUS CHRIST if you do not REPENT and FOLLOW JESUS. (St. Matt. 4:17) During JESUS’ day, everyone who wanted to be His DISCIPLE had to leave their former life behind and follow Him. Peter and Andrew did! James and John did! Matthew did! All JESUS’ DISCIPLES had to leave their life behind to follow Him! (St. Matt. 8:22, 9:9, 19:21)

JESUS CHRIST came and introduced us to the Kingdom of GOD and commanded REPENTANCE. (St. Matt. 4:17, 6:33) JESUS taught that those who would come after Him, MUST “deny themselves, take up their cross, and follow Him,” and He called those who FOLLOWED Him, DISCIPLES. (St. Matt. 16:24-28) JESUS CHRIST further declared that individuals must continue in His WORD to become “His DISCIPLES INDEED!” (St. John 8:30-32)

JESUS did not ask us today to leave our homes to follow Him. However, He did command that we MUST LEAVE SIN and that we needed to “live by EVERY WORD THAT PROCEEDETH OUT OF THE MOUTH OF GOD!” (St. Matt. 4:4, 17) TRUE DISCIPLESHIP starts to happen in our lives when we begin to earnestly read and study the NT Holy Scriptures. The NT Scriptures were written by those who JESUS taught to be His Disciples. These are the writings of the Apostles. It is through the Apostles’ writings that constitute the NT text that we learn how to FOLLOW JESUS! (St. Matt. 28:18-20; Acts 1:2; 2 Tim. 2:15; 2 Peter 3:8-18)

Continue to follow our post as we share the Holy Scriptures that teach us HOW to live our lives as TRUE FOLLOWERS and DISCIPLES of JESUS CHRIST!

Scriptural Analysis of Salvation (see Chart)

Posted on March 17, 2022 by kgfranklin1@gmail.com

Do you want to understand Salvation as it is written in the Holy Scriptures? Apostle Kelvin Franklin created this remarkable chart that enables you to visualize DISCIPLESHIP and SALVATION.

Remember, JESUS CHRIST declared that every one MUST BE “BORN AGAIN” of the WATER and of the HOLY SPIRIT to see the Kingdom of Heaven! (St. John 3:1-7) It was also JESUS CHRIST who declared, “NOT EVERY ONE that saith unto me, LORD, LORD, SHALL ENTER into the kingdom of heaven; but he that DOETH the WILL of MY FATHER which is in heaven.” (St. Matt. 7:21) JESUS also taught DISCIPLESHIP to those who would follow Him and called them DISCIPLES, NOT “Christians,” as most commonly used today. (St. Matt. 16:24-28)

But what does TRUE DISCIPLESHIP and TRUE SALVATION “LOOK LIKE?” How do we know that we are meeting JESUS’ requirement for salvation? Is it merely one’s confession that saves them? Or does it require REPENTANCE and a TRUE FAITH (active BELIEF) in JESUS CHRIST? Can an individual willingly live in SIN and still be assured of salvation?

This chart walks you through a journey of patterns in the Holy Scriptures. You get to read what JESUS said! What His Apostle said! You get to see how JESUS judged the seven (7) churches of Asia in the Book of Revelation! Most importantly, you get to measure your life through the WORD of GOD, the Holy Scriptures. Paul wrote, “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?” (2 Cor. 13:5) (Reprobate was translated from the Greek word adokimos (G96), which means reprobate, worthless, castaway, and rejected.)

I encourage you to go on this journey to be assured of your salvation so you will be prepared for the LORD’s return. (2 Peter 1:5-11; 3:8-18)
