twaog.com is an acronym for "The Whole Armour of God" and is the primary site of Sword & Shield Ministries. Using the sword and shield emblem, the sword represents the word of God {the King James Holy Bible} and the shield represents having faith in His Word - Trusting in the blood which He shed for us on the cross at Calvary (Acts 20:28, Psalms 78:54).
Ephesians 6:16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. 17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
Isaiah 34:16 Seek ye out of the book of the LORD, and read..
Psalms 12:6 The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. 7 Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.
Psalms 138:2 ..for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name.
Our biblical studies are dedicated solely to Christian fundamentals and spreading the Gospel (that being our main priority), however we also focus on end-times prophecy {Eschatology} as we believe the time is very near.
As with all studies, it is important to know WHAT you are studying. Here is a brief description of general topics associated with biblical study..
Bibliology: The study of the Bible.
Prolegomena: The study of "First things said."
Theology Proper: (Theos {"God"} Logos {"word"}) The study of the attributes of God {Triune nature}.
Christology: The study of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Pneumatology: The study of the Holy Ghost {Spirit}.
Angelology: The study of Angels {Both Fallen and Unfallen}.
Anthropology: The study of Mankind.
Harmartiology: The study of Sin.
Soteriology: The study of Salvation {The Gospel, OSAS}.
Ecclesiology: The study of the Church.
Israelology: The study of Israel as God's instrument.
Eschatology: The study of Last Things {End-times prophecy}.
As you can see from this list, our articles incorporate a large majority of these study topics.
This site remains 100% non-profit and we do not ask for any donations either. It is also non-denominational, however if it were to be labelled it would closely resemble the beliefs of a baptist church. For full transparency please read our Statement of faith.
We hope our website will be of some aid in studying the Bible, and also that of encouragement.
Thank you for visiting our site :)
