    In an atmosphere of false teachings that sought to confuse the church and split it. John writes here about the true fellowship of the church and how we can recognize it.

    The story of Jesus is an amazing story, which we sometimes take for granted. It should not be this way. We should be amazed!

    It is an amazing story, wouldn’t you say? The story of Jesus - his birth, his life, his teachings, his death, his resurrection. An amazing story, indeed. As the title of a movie about Jesus’ life once described it, it’s “The Greatest Story Ever Told.” John the Baptist had told the people about ...read more
