May the life and ministry of Paul be an encouragement for all of us who are serving you today. Bless us ...read more

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Apr 5, 2022

     | 5,945 views

    Early Jewish Christians referred to themselves as "The Way," which some have surmised comes from the book of Isaiah, where it was prophesied, "prepare the way of the Lord" (Isaiah 40:3).

    "The Way" is how Jesus referred to Himself, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me" (John 14:6 ESV). Throughout the book of Acts, people who were followers of Jesus were not called Christians but considered "a sect of the ...read more
