[Salvation]

Monsignor Pope Ping!

Good post. God does not keep us free from storms/pain/bad things, but He does redeem the trials we suffer with His always faithful Love and Grace.

Who is “St.” Paul? Couldn’t find that name in the Scriptures. Can you help.

When things go wrong, some are the first to cast stones at a merciful G_D, and when things go right they are the last to praise HIM for their blessings. Including the ones they don’t know about...

Ever cast a stone Satin’s way or look inward when things go wrong?

Thank you, a great teaching. Its is not St. Paul it is the Apostle Paul. And in Acts 28 when he says God has rejected Israel and now salvation is to the Gentiles, he served his second apostleship from then on. With the closing of Acts 28 everything changed, it became a new dispensation (administration)where Jews and gentiles were both able to be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth, without being circumcised. Acts 28 is pivotal in understanding our relationship with God today.

Act 28:26 Saying, Go unto this people, and say, Hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and not perceive:

Act 28:27 For the heart of this people is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes have they closed; lest they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.

Act 28:28 Be it known therefore unto you, that the salvation of God is sent unto the Gentiles, and that they will hear it.

Act 28:29 And when he had said these words, the Jews departed, and had great reasoning among themselves.

Act 28:30 And Paul dwelt two whole years in his own hired house, and received all that came in unto him,

Act 28:31 Preaching the kingdom of God, and teaching those things which concern the Lord Jesus Christ, with all confidence, no man forbidding him.

A great lesson, especially in these tough times.
