His Annointing

Contributed by J. Yeargin on Sep 2, 2004

We believe in God’s Word for direction and instruction. The Apostle Paul said it so well in his letter to Timothy, “…I know Whom I have believed…”

E=mc2, but W.W.J.D.? The disciples, despite the presence of the Holy Spirit, were misunderstood. They were perceived, because of their exuberant behavior, as being loaded. Sauced. Drunk. How rare it is to experience real communication. The kind of communication where every word is ...read more
