Story
Paul has one main goal at the center of his life. That Goal is Christ and the Gospel. It is all he thinks. Every breath he breaths is for Jesus Christ.
What:
1. Paul Preaches without fear. Who here has ever been afraid to preach the Gospel? What are your reason for fear? Paul is facing death yet he is not afraid. How is that possible.
2. What matters is Christ is preached. People are preaching Christ to get Paul in trouble. He doesn’t care even though this is causing him great trouble.
3. Paul knows that Jesus Christ is better then anything this world can offer even his life. To live is Christ to die is gain. Paul knows that the value of Christ far surpasses anything else. What does he know that we don’t know?
