    The church may be limited in strength, but they were obedient and faithful, and the Lord open the door of ministry for them. We need to seize the opportunity and walk through.

    “You have heard it said of old, an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth, but I say unto you; do not resist the evil person. If he strikes you on the left, turn to him on the right”. Jesus tells us in Matthew 5 verses 38-39 not to contribute to further violence by retribution, but ...read more
