Richard Johnston Biblical Papers etc.
This material was created over a very long period of time, and he would not necessarily now still hold the same views expressed. "Test all things, and hold fast to that which is good"
Prayer and Prophecy:
The Baptism in the Holy Spirit R H Johnston - more than most, this paper was intended to be used as a study guide and is difficult to follow without studying the referenced Bible passages closely.
General Ministry
Teaching from Ephesians - part of series in which other people took the missing bits:
Ephesians 1 v1-14 Spiritual Blessings Bible notes R H Johnston- an extract from his annotated bible, from which he could speak without special preparation. For other people, it needs close attention to get the best from it, and can be used as a guide as to how to annotate a Bible from meditation. Denis Clark had similar but more limited annotations to his bible - his were limited to to emboldening and bible references only, done using a very fine pen with Indian ink.

Teaching from John's gospel - part of a series in which other people took the missing bits:

Controversies and misunderstandings

- a) what is the essence of the gospel?
- b) What is the difference between the"good works/deeds" in Matthew 5:16 which are to be done in public and the charitable deeds/acts of righteousness in Matthew 6:1 which are to be done in secret?
- c) I can't find the word "Trinity" in the Bible: from a Biblical perspective, how then do you understand the relationship of the Father Son and Holy Spirit?
- d) Jesus says that if my brother sins and he repents I must forgive him even if he repeats this 70x7 times. But does scripture therefore demand that I
forgive someone even if they haven't repented of their sin against me? Or are there other issues I need to think about?
- e) In 1 Corinthians 14 Paul wrote that "Women should keep silent in the churches". Is this the last word on the subject, or has this text been misinterpreted? So what, biblically, can women do?
James the Just a Misunderstood figure in the New Testament R H Johnston - At the time of Acts 15, James was the mediator between opposing Christian factions, and probably closer to Jesus' mind then most contemporaries
