Thanks for posting. This is your best video so far. I’ve watched all of them, and they are very informative.

Your comment about how God often uses something for His kingdom in unexpected ways is a great practical example and application of the overall theme of your series.

I think it would be interesting to note that Luke only wrote two books of the New Testament, but his words comprise about 27%. Paul’s words comprise about 23%, though he wrote more books of the New Testament than any other writer.

Thanks for the kind words as usual, unlearner.

True...to be quite honest, none of the Early Church apostles would live to see the fruits of their labor. While Christianity had certainly grown and there were churches in almost every city of the Roman empire, it was still a persecuted minority at 100 AD. The next century or so after that would see the "Christian supernova" as the movement exploded into the largest religion of the ancient world.

Of course, fast forward to today and imagine the fruits of Peter and Paul's labor as we still read their letter in churches around the world, 1900 years later.
