AVOIDING THE ROCKS
Alan was my prayer partner at a previous church and he tells the story of going white water rafting on a Christian retreat. He said he always got stuck being the captain of the boat and sure enough for the 4th year in a row, he was named captain. So his job was to direct the men

Some Christians don’t believe in Hell or The Devil. We should have 3 problems with that.
1 Calling God a liar-It is written in his Word, therefore it is true.
