We are in the Book of Acts chapter 27, and we’re going to pick up with verse 10:“And said unto them, Sirs, I perceive that this voyage will be with much hurt and damage, not only of the lading and ship, but also of our lives.Nevertheless the centurion believed the master and the owner of the ship, more than those things which were spoken by Paul.”

Dave, we’ve got a few verses left, I’ll read 32 through 34.“And when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked: and others said, We will hear thee again of this matter. So Paul departed from among them. Howbeit certain men clave unto him, and believed: among the which was Dionysius the Areopagite, and a woman named Damaris, and others with them.”Well, he stopped them short when he began to—it seems like he had a rapt audience until Dave, he mentions the resurrection of the dead.

Dave and Tom respond to questions from listeners and readers of The Berean Call. Here is this week’s question: “Dear Dave and Tom:What is your view on tithing? Our pastor tells us each Sunday to bring our tithes and offerings to the Lord, meaning give 10% or more of your income to the church. I thought tithing belongs to the Old Testament and is not applicable for New Testament Christians. Am I wrong?”
