Persons of Peace

Even if you had ten thousand guardians in Christ,

you do not have many fathers, for in Christ Jesus I became

your father through the gospel.

1 Corinthians 4:15

Paul entered the synagogue and spoke boldly there for three months, arguing persuasively about the kingdom of God. But some of them

became obstinate; they refused to believe and publicly maligned the Way. So Paul left them.

He took the disciples with him and had discussions daily in the lecture hall of Tyrannus. This went on for two years, so that all the Jews

and Greeks who lived in the province of Asia heard the word of the Lord.

Acts 19:8-10

Then Jesus came to them and said,“All authority in heaven and on earth has

been given to Me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the

name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey

everything I have commanded you.”

Matthew 28:18-20a
