    A faith that overcomes.

    THE CERTAINTY OF GOD’S WITNESS. 1 John 5:4-12. It is interesting to note that 1 JOHN 5:4 begins “all that is born of God” overcomes the world.

    The nature and extent of His dominion.

    THE REIGN OF MESSIAH. Psalm 72:1-8. The name of Solomon is associated with this Psalm, and it is quite possible that this sacred song was premiered on the occasion of his coronation. However, Christians recognise Jesus as the fullest fulfilment of the ideal king in this chapter. Psalm 72:1. As ...read more
