The Imperfect Man for the Job



God used an outspoken, polished, vindictive Roman citizen
to travel to the nations.

Fluent in Greek yet speaking with Hebraic precision.
Academic knowledge of the ways of Moses.
Descendant of Benjamin
Mentioned in Philippians three
Verse six.

You made me LOL when you said your legalism was "faultless".

New mission, was to teach them:
Legal righteousness is only surpassed by knowing Christ Jesus.
Faith allows the Lord to be your personal Leader,
Personal Trainer
Rabbi / Teacher

Now enrolling students for the second semester -- of life.

In the third chapter of a letter to Corinth
I learned "The Lord is the Spirit".
Therefore, I must be Spirit led.

If faith has no oxygen, righteousness is short lived.

Israeli Pharisee Emeritus
Saw old glory fade in comparison.
Now everything he amassed was considered nothing.

If Paul still had the temple keys
He would've pawned off the Arc of the Covenant.
In exchange for the surpassing new one.
