Many Christians today imagine the apostle Paul sitting down at a desk one afternoon in a quiet room all by himself and writing a letter to one of the first-century churches he started on one of his missionary journeys. A letter we now have included in our New Testament. And when he finished writing that letter, he signed it, sealed it, and put it in the mail. That is the way we write letters, or the way our grandparents wrote them. But is that how Paul wrote his letters in the first century? Join the Discover the Word group as our friend Randy Richards joins us to show us how basically every aspect of that scenario about writing letters is wrong. In these conversations called “Paul, the Letter Writer,” we’ll discover what letter writing was like in the first century, and how that influences how we read Paul’s letter today.

Paul was a very educated man, he was used by evil as he was blind to whom he served. It takes the Lord personal encounter with him to bring him to bring Paul to the true realities of life. May thos be my experience too dear Lord. YouTube seems to absorb so much of my valuable time.
Amen🙏🙏🙏✌️👆🙌👏❤️
This was so so good and fascinating. It really does bring insight into the letters. Thanks 😊
Thank you ♥️
I so appreciated the history in this.
Paul led much of Asia out of idolatry (Acts 19:26). One of the greatest of all time!
