    JESUS: THE IMAGE OF GOD If you are old enough to remember, or watch the old series Dragnet on the Nickelodeon channel, you will see at the end a greasy hand come out with a hammer and a die. The hammer hits the die, and when the hammer and die leave, the mark ’VII’ is left in the stone. Although ...read more

    GOD'S LOVE IS WITH YOU God’s promise is not that we will not suffer or have grief, pain and trouble; his promise is more amazing than that.
