Salvation
Dr. Fred Lowery
Acts 16:9-34; John 3:36; Matthew 28:19-20; Philippians 1:3-11
We're gonna look at Acts 16--one of the great chapters in the Bible even Baptist can find this particular book--Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts and it's just filled with the gospel and every now and then we just need to be reminded of our responsibility toward the gospel.

He jumps to the plural there. He had the vision and then he said we got ready at once so Luke joins him and he has a team so got ready at once to leave for Macedonia, concluding that God had called us to preach the gospel to them. [NIV]
(Now, Paul had real visions. You know, that usually happens to me after eating Mexican food but Paul had real visions)
So Paul had this vision of this man of Macedonia --Macedonia, that was across the Aegean Sea actually what is Greece and this man calls out to him, "Come over here and help us." So, Paul already had a plan. Paul's plan was to take the gospel east -- that w ...
