Before the holidays, we saw that for the first time the Gospel had finally come to the Gentiles. We saw two men (Peter a Jew and Cornelius a Gentile) each experiencing a vision that occurred at just the right time in preparation for what God was going to do. God

In my last blog, we traveled with Philip to Samaria where he encountered a man named Simon who practiced magic arts. Simon received the message of the Gospel, but wanted to receive the Holy Spirit so that he could lay hands on others, either for profit or for personal acclaim.
