    How The Church Must Live According To The Gospel Series

One extreme thinks we should forget those old fashioned mores and get with the times: after all, this is a new ...read more

    Some who would try to convince us that there are contradictions in the Bible, point to Galatians, chapter six, to try to prove their point.

    • Verse 2 says, "Bear ye one another's burdens..." • Verse 5 says, "For every man shall bear his own burden." They err because they do not realize Paul was speaking of two different things. Verse 5 refers to people who, like soldiers, must bear their own ...read more
