Endgame (3 of 10)
Series: Ephesians: Unbelievable
James Merritt
Ephesians 2:1-10
Introduction
1. As of July 21st, 2019, according to the gooiness world book of records, the most anticipated movie of all time proved its mettle as it had the biggest domestic opening weekend in history, $350 million; the biggest global opening weekend in history grossing $1.2 billion and it was the fastest movie in history to gross $1 billion taking only five days.
