Who got the Gospel message out to the Gentile world so that we have the Word?
The Apostle Paul is the one who got the Gospel message out to the Gentile world, so that we have heard it and have the Word in our hands. He was literally sold out to Christ and endured sufferings and pressures to get the Gospel to us.
Les explains that our salvation is based on what Christ has done for us, but the one who got the message out to the Gentile world, whereby we have heard it and have the Word in our hand, is the Apostle Paul. Les reviews the sufferings and pressures Paul came under in order to get the Gospel to the Gentiles. Paul also speaks of boasting, saying let no man think him a fool, and identifies himself as a Hebrew, an Israelite, and the seed of Abraham.
