Colossians 4:16
"After this letter
has
been read to you,
see that it is also read in the church
of
the Laodiceans
and
that you
in
turn read the letter
from
Laodicea
."
It is interesting to note that 1/3 of the 66 books
ofthe
Bible is in the form of "letters".The
last
22
books
of
Scripture
are
letters written
by
the
apostles to the churches and their co-workers. It is
alsointeresting
to note that there are 22 Hebrew letters
in all, from Aleph to Tav (see Psalm 119) , i.e. from Alpha toOmega. If
it seems coincidental that there are 22 Hebrew alphabets (
letters) and 22 Epistles (letters
) and both sets are "letters", I
would
rather attribute that to the wisdom of God displayed. Do write in your
letters
to
be read by all and do read the letters
from
all. May the grace of God be with you.
Please send your letters, questions, articles or
reports
to John Tng at spirit5@singnet.com.sg.
Please note that it is impossible for even two
like-minded
souls to agree on everything. You should read these letters with this
in
mind and pray for understanding from the Spirit of Truth. Thank you.
