Greek Glossary
Often times we think
we understand things when we really don't. Its usually when we
are in the mist of a storm that we turn back to God and begin to
evaluate or reevaluate ourselves. Don't wait for a storm,
experience the fullness of what it means to be a Christian by truly
being authentic in your walk today.
Red Rose Ministry's glossary contains words the ministry thinks are most appropriate
regarding our
mission and
philosophy. For deeper insight, we have included Greek
phonetics and definitions. Both languages are
significant for a complete understanding of meanings since English
words are derived from Greek prefixes and suffixes and Sanskrit, the
oldest language defines the original terminology and expressions of
words. Sanskrit was spoken by the Hebrews, God's chosen people
who were Jewish. Let us also be reminded that Our Lord and Savior,
Christ Jesus is Jewish.

Please Note...Red Rose Ministry is a
Christian organization that tries to glorify God and the Lord
our Savior, Christ Jesus, in all ways. Therefore, you will
find that we purposefully capitalize a few nouns and pronouns
throughout our web site, online materials and marketing tools
when referring to the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit. We
refuse to capitalize satan's name or others related, even if it
is grammatically incorrect, because they are everything that is
considered evil to the Holy Father. In the Lord's name, we
rebuke satan in the name of Christ Jesus of Nazareth. |
