Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Acts 19:1-41

At every point, even at Rome, Luke is careful to note the Gospel offer to the Jews, and how the main share reject, and a remnant only is saved. And thus it appears that... read more

Yet when Messiah came he required a new baptism, obligating a consecration to him, whereby the Spirit of promise would be poured out upon them, and they be emancipated into the full liberty of the sons of God. Christ Jesus Messiah Jesus. John’s baptism obligated faith in the... read more
