Gospel Encounter
from HopeInMadison Hosted by Andy Wulff
But Saul, still breathing threats and murder against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest and asked him for letters to the synagogues at Damascus, so that if he found any belonging to the Way, men or women, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem. (Acts 9:1-2 ESV) If we are honest, we believe there are people that are beyond the grace of God. They might be someone in the news who actively and maybe even violently live opposed to Christianity. It might even be someone close to you who may not be opposed to the faith, but just ambivalent to it. But if we are honest in a "getting real" moment, we believe they are beyond God’s grace. Sometimes thatmay even describe ourselves, because we are more aware than anyone of our heart and actions, to the point of becoming acutely aware of our distance from a holy God. The study of Acts 9 breaks through these kinds of ideas. This week we will hear the story of the key figure in the New Testament, outside of Christ. I want to encourage you to read through the story of Saul in Acts 9. Also, this would be a great week to invite someone to come along with you!
