     | 4,949 views

    This message examines the fact that although we are condemned for our sins there is still hope.

    Paul has made quite a case against us up to this point. However, it is easy for us to sit back and look for those who we think are a lot worse than we are.

    It’s important for us to look above what’s here on earth and to know where our treasures are. It’s also important for us to be true witnesses for God by showing others that we serve someone greater than us.

    hat would you say to someone if you knew you were speaking to them for the last time? What advice would you give?
