10. Biblical application
Jesus teaches the truth (reality truth).
Paul, etc., teaches to learners what Jesus taught.
Those learners sometimes misapply the teachings, etc.
Paul, etc., write letters to help adjust the misapplication while praising what is being done correctly.
11. Biblical approach
Here is the Biblical approach.
Study Paul in action teaching to church sites, etc.
Make references back to the teaching of Jesus, as needed.
Cover the later letters from Paul to help adjust the misapplication of teachings at those sites.
12. Current topics
The current topic series using this approach is as follows.
Background of Timothy, a helper of Paul and first Bishop of Ephesus.
Paul's visit to Ephesus.
Paul's letter to the Ephesians.
Paul's first letter to Timothy.
Paul's second letter to Timothy.
Letter of Jesus to Ephesus in Revelation.
Note that the Apostle John was also involved in Ephesus before being exiled to Patmos, an island not that far from Ephesus.
