    Anointed For Mission [lectionary 3c]

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Dec 30, 2018

     | 7,003 views

    Leave the success of your life to a power greater than you. Just do the things you were anointed for. Let a power greater than you take care of the ‘how.’

    A Sign requiring a response.

    THE CLEANSING OF THE TEMPLE. John 2:12-25.
