The Bible Study by Sentence Diagram Ephesians: English Grammar, Reading, Speaking, Writing Tool (BSD Book 5)

This book aims two purposes, first for the English teachers and students to find the new method to learn English by Diagramming method which is the master course of every English teaching and for the English Bible readers to have the more distinctive and spiritual inspirations.

Every language learning process is about the same process. The Survival stage language means the word or any verbal or non verbal expression to survive. Infant’s outcry is one kind of survival stage language. And the next stage language is called the Living stage language, such as ‘How do you do?’, ‘How much?’ Those languages are necessary for living and maintaining life in this world. The Final and advanced stage language is called the Culture stage language, which is necessary for our cultural lives. We need English grammar rule for cultural life, before that time we may not need any grammar and syntax for our daily life.

However most Koreans learn English grammar even before Living stage language, that is why they spend so much money on learning grammar and syntax even before they cannot speak living stage English. And the government has spent so much money on Kid’s English, even though they do not know the survival English.

This book employees two kinds of verb- action verb or linking verb. Four noun forms- ex. Church, a church, the church, churches, and seven sentence patterns and seven sentence diagram tools are also employed.

Every sentence to be diagrammed comes from the New International Version of the Bible of Ephesians. Diagramming Bible Sentences "helps people memorize the Word of God and it brings God's Word to spirit for life”

The book contains the Explanatory Notes of Dr. Thomas L. Constable, Senior Professor of Dallas Theological Seminary about the Bible of Ephesians. Paul’s Ephesians has form of a letter in the same form as most of Paul’s other letters. Dr. Constable claims “There is no evidence in Ephesians that Paul wrote it to respond to a particular situation; it is not an "occasional" epistle. In this, it is similar to Romans. Both epistles are more like public speeches than private conversations.” "Paul is meditating, and developing certain thoughts—and clothes them in the form of a letter.“

Basically God’s glory, and knowledge, and grace have been upon the saints and those who are called by the God should live a spiritual life as Christian in this world. In order to live the spiritual life, the saints should know spiritual warfare against powers, authorities, evil spirits of this world. The contents of book is summarized as mentioned below.

In Ephesians 6:12, our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, authorities, the power and the evil spiritual forces of the world. By diagramming it, we can clearly understand what we should not against, but against(four against in the Bible).

"The value of knowing the Bible as God’s Word and obeying the Word of God is critical to our eternal life. All God’ Words are spiritual, and ‘Spiritual’ means eternal, and forever. We can understand God’s thought and follow his command to me by mediating Scriptures in the Bible. That is true Christian Life.

“Diagramming Bible Sentence requires a lot of mediation and research and study scripture in order to find out the function and role of the words in the Scriptures, sometimes I spend one or two hours to diagram in order to find out the best and undisputed diagram”, said the author.
