Paul Problems — EP47: The Colossians Connection — Yeshua's Ongoing Rebuke of Paul and His "Gospel"

Описание: ✉️: [email protected] — In this latest episode of our Paul Problems series, we'll carefully examine the deep connections between the book of Colossians and Yeshua's letter in Revelation 3 to the congregation at Laodicea. As we've seen throughout this series, Paul and his "gospel" are squarely in focus in Revelation 2 and 3, and in this episode, we see once again that Yeshua is warning us about the ravenous wolf in sheep's clothing from the tribe of Benjamin.
