I enjoy the fact that when Paul speaks at the beginning of Romans he calls upon the prophesies of who messiah would be. He states "...his Son, who was descended from David according to the flesh." Paul also writes "...declared to be Son of God with power according to the spirit of holiness by resurrection from the dead, Jesus Christ our Lord, through whom we have received grace..." and with this grace we are meant to be apostles. An apostle is defined as any of the early followers of Jesus who carried the Christian message into the world. Though this term is applied to the early Christian, its meaning is still relevant for us today, for we are meant to share the message of Jesus Christ's grace, mercy, love and salvation with our world (the people we know).
Rena thank you for your thoughts/information for both were informative and interesting to me. Also thank you for starting this, though it will be a challenge for me as I am rarely online ;) it will be nice to share thoughts and study the word of God.
