3h ago3:56

Paul is described as God’s “chosen vessel” [Acts 9 v.15] but that does not mean he was lavished with favours by God like a father does toward his favourite son, such as Jacob did with Joseph and his coat of many colours [Gen 37 v.3-4]. Paul recalls, as he is giving his account before King Agrippa, what Jesus said to him on the road to Damascus, “It…

Today’s readings.. (Ezra 3,4), (Hosea 6), (Acts 23,24) People promise to say the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth in a court of law!

It has been …

We live in an age when scriptwriters, film and video makers employ very vivid imaginations to often create pictures of impossible scenes and events.

Today’s and tomorrow’s chapters in John’s Gospel are two of the most meaningful in the whole of the Bible.
