What will happen if the church gets back into the fundamentals of Paul?
The church, defined as all who claim to believe the Bible, will see some things happen if it gets back into the fundamentals of Paul. If it does not, nothing will happen and things will get worse. The outcome depends on that return.
Les teaches that teaching Paul's epistles addresses the nitty-gritty of today—where we are right now, tomorrow, next week, and next month—rather than the more attention-holding topics like Genesis, the Old Testament, or prophecy. He notes that people would rather discuss exciting future events. But he stresses that when the church—meaning the whole realm of people who claim to believe the Bible, regardless of denominational handle—gets back into the fundamentals of Paul, then we are going to see some things happen. If it does not, we will not see anything happen, and things will get worse. He then turns to Romans 1:16, where Paul writes, 'I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ.'
