Contributed by William Mouser on Jan 31, 2006

The Anointing Today

The Dangers Of Biblical Ignorance

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Sep 20, 2018

We live in a Biblically ignorant society. In many churches the Bible is only given lip service but no serious merit. Knowledge of the Word of God and how it is applied is a matter of eternal life and death.
