| 0:00.0 | Welcome to The For The Gospel Podcast, where we're all about providing sound doctrine |
| 0:13.5 | for everyday people. |
| 0:14.5 | I'm your host, Kosti Han, and on today's episode I want to answer a really important |
| 0:18.7 | question that a lot of you have been asking. |
| 0:20.6 | The question is, are there still apostles today? |
