who is your favorite Bible character?

[Sister Alvear]

of course Jesus is...I actually meant other than Jesus...

[webdesigner]

Aside from our dearest Jesus, I really like St. Paul for his writings.

[Scott Pitta]

I like Joseph and Paul. Joseph saw some tough times and rose above it. Paul was a thinker who still had faith.

[Sean]

Paul!

[RJR]

Ok Sis Alvear, please tell us...is it Deborah, Huldah, Priscilla, Philip's daughters, etc. and why?

[Sister Alvear]

ACTUALLY IT IS PAUL! He amazes with with his consuming love for souls, his travels, his sacrifices.... I love to read about his missionary trips. I never get tired of reading his letters and answers....

Sorry RJR you misread me on that one....I do enjoy the stories of the ones you mentioned but the complete change in Paul's life amazes me....and to think it was almost an "unknown person" (Ananias Baptizes Saul)

Acts 9…17So Ananias departed and entered the house, and after laying his hands on him said, "Brother Saul, the Lord Jesus, who appeared to you on the road by which you were coming, has sent me so that you may regain your sight and be filled with the Holy Spirit." 18And immediately there fell from his eyes something like scales, and he regained his sight, and he got up and was baptized; 19and he took food and was strengthened. Now for several days he was with the disciples who were at Damascus.

We really don't know much about Ananias.... sometimes we may not baptize thousands like Peter and some others however it may just be a Paul we baptize!

[Sister Alvear]

In School we studied a book written by the late Sister Mary Williams on the life of Paul...I wore that book out reading it so many times.

[Sister Alvear]

Paul history says won so many of the prison guards to the Lord...He is so amazing....
