Paul’s Message In Rome Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Feb 19, 2022

Paul was telling the Jewish leaders in Rome about the kingdom of God from the law and the prophets from morning to evening. Some of these Jewish leaders were convinced that Jesus is the Messiah others refused to believe. Are we convinced that Jesus is the Christ, or do we refuse to believe?

Believe It Or Not

Contributed by Hans Krause on Oct 14, 2018

Was Paul A Good Preacher? Hmmm. I’ve often wondered how many churches would pass on hiring Paul for their pulpit minister. • Everyone is a TV evangelist right now. • Pick and choose what style you like, what subject matter you are interested in. • Almost like a competition on Facebook between ...read more
