    We should not be asking whose side God is on, but rather if we are on God’s side. God is the Almighty. God is the Creator. Jesus Christ is the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords… the proper question is “am I on God’s side?”

     | 8,739 views

    Often men are more interested in proving the prowess of their own religious party, rather than listening to Jesus. There are times when we need to stop speaking, stop questioning, and start listening to what God is saying in His Word.

    A SUMMARY OF THE LAW, AND A QUESTION OF IDENTITY. Matthew 22:34-46. This section begins with the Pharisees gathered together with just one malicious desire. They had heard Jesus “putting the Sadducees to silence” (Matthew 22:34), and yet they still imagined that they could outwit Him with ...read more
