A Man with a Mission

 (ID: 2479)

In the courtroom before Governor Festus and King Agrippa, Paul explained how he was transformed from Saul, the chief persecutor of Christians, to the apostle Paul, commissioned servant of Christ. Through this study from Acts 26, Alistair Begg illustrates how God calls unlikely individuals to be witnessing followers of Jesus. God’s call, he reminds us, is not dependent upon our special talents but upon His authority, His security, and the clarity found in His Word.
