    The story of Paul in the Areopagus in Athens will be a nice one for philosophers and the intellectuals of the times and to some extent the postmodern folks of today who neither think much about science or of religion. Yet this story is also the story of our time and of ordinary folks who are ...read more

    No Life On Mars

    When Paul went to "Mars" Hill in Athens he found no spiritual life there. Though Greece had made a great contribution to the world's philosophy and thought, it's offering for salvation was empty. But there was life on Mars when Paul left!

    NO LIFE ON MARS Acts 17:22-31 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. Today I was at the hospital with someone and they remarked how that when they went in for surgery last time, the doctor drew a big picture on their side so he wouldn’t operate on the wrong side.

    Prejudice is a social evil present in every culture of our fallen world. It is holding negative attitudes towards others based on generalizations and stereotypes, resulting in discrimination. It is forming conclusions without consulting the facts.

    The Apostle Paul affirms the unity and diversity of all nations in Acts 17. He was addressing Greeks who regarded themselves as superior race. Race matters only to racists; the rest of us care about character. It is distressing how people have twisted this passage to justify segregation. In ...read more
