How many of Paul's epistles are called the Church Epistles?
Seven of Paul's epistles are called the Church Epistles. They were written to the Church, and the number seven is God's perfect number. Paul did not deliberately plan to produce seven letters; he simply wrote as it was appropriate, and seven fell out.
Les teaches that there are 7 of Paul's epistles written to the Church, and they are called the Church Epistles. He points out that the number 7 is God's perfect number, but Paul did not sit and try to divide his letters to arrive at that number. Paul just wrote those letters as it was appropriate, and it fell out that there were 7 written for the Church. Les uses this to show how beautifully all of the Bible fits together, from Genesis to Revelation, and how everything is programmed in a way no human could have dreamed up.
