So... if Jesus was talking to the Jews in Matthew, Mark Luke, and John; and Paul was talking to the Hebrews; and from Hebrews to Revelation pertains to those who will be left behind... What part of the Bible are WE supposed to read and follow? Oh, we are to read and follow from Romans to Philemon? Shoot, that’s much better than having to read and follow the whole Bible, especially Chronicles (those names are IMPOSSIBLE to recite). Thanks a lot!

First of all, Paul did not write Hebrews, unless you know something I don’t. Paul, the Apostle to the Gentiles, wrote Romans through Philemon. His commission given to him by the Risen Christ consisted of the dispensation of the Grace of God, the Church the Body of Christ, the one new man, the preaching of the cross, the free gift of salvation, the finished work of Christ, our position in Christ, our walk with Christ, a commission for us in this present dispensation, the understanding of what is happening here on earth while Christ is sitting at the right hand of God, the simplicity that is in Christ, the coming of Christ in the air for us, and the mystery, hid in God, until revealed to the Apostle Paul. ANd that’s just a few things. The whole Bible is for our understanding, but there is a part that is our private mail, during this dispensation. Just as it will profit those left after the rapture to read Paul’s Epistles for their understanding, they will be too late to escape God’s Wrath. They must endure to the end to be saved. Just as we don’t read Leviticus and bring a lamb to be slaughtered because God told them to. It’s for our understanding but it is not for our dispensation.
