     | 8,291 views

IT WOULD SEEM THAT ORDERS ALWAYS COME FROM THE TOP TO THE BOTTOM, WHILE REACTION TO THE ORDERS FROM BOTTOM TO TOP. THIS BEGINS AT A VERY EARLY AGE AND CAN CONTINUE ALL THROUGH ...read more

These people can be teachers, police officers, government officials or even the staff here at Hillsview Acres. Hopefully these people will do what they feel is best for us ...read more

The result for them was spiritual death and eventually physical death. Why didn’t God stop them from this disobedient act knowing full well the outcome? He ...read more
