based on 44 ratings

| 3,283 views

"What Manner?" goes beyond the question that arose in Mary’s mind on hearing the angel’s salutation. This question can well be posed in other important areas as well.

And when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and considered in her mind what manner of salutation this was.” Luke 1:28-29 "What Manner?" goes ...read more

The Shadow Of The Cross Over The Incarnation

Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Apr 13, 2001

based on 74 ratings

In the opening verses of his Gospel, John had already ...read more
