God ordained human government to restrain evil and punish evildoers. Tragically, our governments have consistently failed to protect their citizens from all forms of lawlessness, hunger, diseases, wars, natural disasters, and human suffering.

Paul’s 13 letters are a radical departure from the rest of Scripture, including Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. The only place in the Bible where you will find details concerning God’s remedy for restoring the heavens is in the 13 letters of Paul.

The only books in the entire Bible dealing with the special salvation of gentiles (non-Israelites), who sin as a vocation and have never even heard of Moses, are the 13 letters of Paul.
