Questions

Just thinking about a few things today.

What kind of men were the apostles?
If we met them today would we be surprised?
Were they bold men? Even to the point of rudeness?
What kind of men would endure beatings then rejoice?
What kind of men would go anyway after receiving official reprimand?
What kind of men sing after being beaten and imprisoned?
Would such men fit in your local church?
Would they be considered radicals?
Would they be accepted or tolerated in your church?
Does our concept of the apostles fit with the fact that they took the gospel to the known world?
Are there such men among us now?
