Welcome dear listeners in Jesus name to our seventh talk in our series of our New Testament Survey. This is the first of two talks on the epistles of Paul. Our coverage of the book of Acts in the last talk showed us that Paul was the Apostle of Christ to the Gentiles. The Spirit used him to preach the Gospel and plant churches in many regions and cities of the Roman empire, ending with his arrival in Rome as a prisoner but thereby, bringing the Gospel there.
