The Apostle Paul had his own hired house at Rome where he "received
all
that CAME
UNTO HIM,
preaching the kingdom of God" which Jesus had
commanded His true servants to preach (Acts 28:30). Paul did NOT go
from house to house preaching to sinners and unconvert ed people. He
preached to them in the synagogue. After some became converted leaders
of God's true Church, then the A,post le Paul visited and taught them
in
their homes.
Today
the
Gospel
is
being preached to the entire nation by radio.
Anyone is at liberty to listen or to close his ears and reject
it-–
merely by turning the dial of his radio. The Gospel is also being
published.
It
is
being sent free of cha.rge to
all
who request
it.

we
do not go, uni nvited, into the homes of uncon–
verted people in order to teach them . We should never attempt to force
God's truth on anyone. In Matthew
7:6,
Christ showed that

too precious for that.
This is the example of Jesus
Christ, the
twelve apostles, and the
Apostle Paul. Let us follow it.
