Acts 2:41 Those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand were added to their number that day. I don’t think I’d ever noticed it before, but here, rather than saying “men,” Luke says “souls.” (The Japanese says “people,” … Continue reading

Discrimination; May 13, 2024
Acts 11:18 When they heard this, they had no further objections and praised God, saying, “So then, God has granted even the Gentiles repentance unto life.” This was an absolutely shocking moment for the Jerusalem church. I can imagine the … Continue reading
