Book of the Bible: Acts 14

The Gospel for the Pagan

The Gospel for the Pagan

In Acts chapter 14 when Paul and Barnabas bring the gospel to Lystra, and a lame man is restored to health, the crowds proclaim the pair Hermes and Zeus.

The text and sermon teach us: love the needy, identify the idols, endure the hardness, and fulfill the longings.
