Consider being thankful this Thanksgiving, in this, the “dispensation of the grace of God” Ephesians 3:1-2. If one has an concordance, study out the word relating to thanks, thankful, thankfulness etc. See how it reads differently, if in fact it does; reads differently; between Old and New Testaments. Again the Books of James, John, Peter, Matthew, Luke, Mark and Jude; how they differ in context of Paul’s epistles after the cross and believers being in the “Body”, the “Church” in the LORD Jesus Christ. i advise one watch how the focus of the one praying attention shifts in light of before and after the cross, revelations given to Paul by the risen Christ.

Thank You Jesus; In Jesus’s name, in Your name; Thank You
