Theme: ''Paul discusses his ministry and the need for true wisdom''

This message will end with Paul showing us the contrast between Christians and the lost and how to keep the proper perspective of Jesus Christ in our lives. It is onething for us to achieve the proper contrast between the saved and the lost and altogether more understanding Jesus.
