The Importance of the Singular Foundation Through Niemöller and Bonhoeffer
Tuesday Nov 13, 2018
Tuesday Nov 13, 2018
Paul Axton lectures on the importance of the singular foundation through Niemöller and Bonhoeffer. Paul pictures Christ as the One foundation in I Cor. 3 and indicates even though we may build on this foundation our life may be a futility. The work of the Church at certain periods in history may come to nothing - this is illustrated in the life of Martin Niemöller and Dietrich Bonhoeffer.
