     | 747 views

    Paul was one of the greatest Christian examples in scripture. He was a man who responded to God's calling in his life and has encouraged us to follow in his footsteps.

Tonight, I want to approach this Bible study in a different manner. I want us to use an example of a man who did respond to God's calling ...read more

     | 1,168 views

    The reason why many Christians, who claim to be holy, look miserable and depressed and long-faced is that they try to produce a sort of holiness by themselves through some rules made by men. They live again under law.

    The happiest person ever walked on the face of this earth is Jesus Christ. This doesn’t mean that He was the wealthiest, healthiest, most handsome and most influential person ever lived! But the joy of his life was centred completely on his trust in his Father (God Almighty). Jesus was not moved ...read more
