Little Country Church on the edge of town

Do do do do do do

People coming every day from miles around

For meetings and for Sunday school

And it's very plain to see

Welcome to the Word for today, featuring the Bible teaching ministry of Pastor

Chuck Smith, founder of the Calvary Chapel Movement.

This radio program is a chapter by chapter verse by

verse study through the entire Bible. And on today's edition of the word for today, Pastor Chuck

continues his message, The Two Kingdoms, as we pick up in Acts chapter 26, verse 17. And now with

You're living under the control of Satan or under the control of God.

There are only two governing spheres of the universe. In the beginning, there was just one,

the kingdom of God, all things in obedience and abjection unto him. God created angelic beings,
