    Paul could have gotten off immediately but he stayed. He could have defended himself but he defended the Gospel. He sought to bridge the gap with his people. He was prepared to sacrifice for the sake of the Gospel.

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

    The end result if we stay in the world is death. Spiritual death. Separation from God. In this passage, John the Baptist came as a witness to the True Light and showed people the way to Jesus. He was a witness for Jesus. Jesus is salvation.
