    God’s vision for the earth, for humanity, is so much broader and better than any civil engineering project.

    Paul's Sermon At Athens: The Right Place At The Right Time

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jun 7, 2021
     | 2,400 views

    Paul's preaching in the synagogues and the markets of Athens drew the attention of the city's philosophers and intellectuals who invited him to speak at the Areopagus. When the Gospel is proclaimed, it has the power to win souls for the glory of God (Hebrews 4:12).

    Paul's mission to carry the Gospel to the nations continued while he was in Athens. Even though persecution had driven him out of one area, the LORD in His Sovereignty placed Paul right where He wanted him, and that was at the intellectual capital of the Roman Empire, the city of Athens. ...read more
