"Life Has Purpose!" Series

Contributed by Dave Mcfadden on Mar 7, 2016

Not only do we have a God given purpose to fulfill while on earth, believers have the power of the Holy Spirit to enable us to succeed because Christ is risen!

What exactly did Jesus mean? Admittedly, when we think of the works Christ performed while on earth, they are pretty hard to top.

Nothing could be more optimistic than the words we find here that all works for good, and that if God is before us who can be against us. God has given His Son who intercedes of us, and nothing ...read more
