Anti-Trinity Proof Texts Refuted: Galatians 4:14 Heb 13:2.

The quality shared in Gal 4:14 between Paul, angels and Jesus Christ, is the "reverence, awe and respect" that accompanies seeing an angel, or being in the personal presence of an apostle or Jesus ...

Lesson 18: Obedience To The Gospel After Jesus had died for our sins, was resurrected and just before he ascended into heaven, he commanded his apostles in Mark 16:15-16, "And he said to them, Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature.
