In the first reading from his First Letter to the Corinthians, Saint Paul insists on his status as an apostle, simply because of the goodness which he wished his audience would be open to receiving. The more trustworthy the messenger, the more easily would the message preached be received and interiorized. It is a faith, that if embraced, will bring them salvation and life unending. And the One who IS the Truth, the Way, and the Life, was the One whom changed the heart of Paul, and who has changed our own lives forever.
