At all risks and consequences, you must fight for God and the salvation of souls.” ...read more

Contributed by Melvin Maughmer, Jr. on Jul 19, 2025

I was asked the question is it really that important to be concerned about the descendants and who we are when it is all about salvation anyway? To a point that seems to be a fair question until you understand that the concept of salvation is twisted and manipulated and used to control slaves.

Truth In Advertising Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Dec 11, 2001

The same angel gives the same basic message to Zechariah and Mary. Zechariah reacts with skepticism while Mary responds with calm acceptance. Why the difference?
