"Quote" of the Week
"What is Paul’s reward for wanting to preach the
gospel? Satisfaction that he can offer it free of charge. In a society where
personal advantage, even with civic benefactions, was always accepted as the
motivating factor, Paul’s ‘advantage’ was seeing the unique gospel of the free
grace of God being offered without cost to its hearers. His action demonstrated
the very character of his message." D.A. Carson
