    based on 6 ratings
     | 3,360 views

    You may be have been foolish at the cross by the mockery of your life and lips and your actions. These people get so close to the cross but choose to deny the blood it shed.

    How do you view the Cross? It is the grandest single chapter in the entire Bible. And at the center of the Christian faith stands the resurrection of Jesus Christ. We sometimes think that Easter should be celebrated only once a year. But actually every Sunday—the first day of each ...read more

    God is so much similar to His word – the Bible. The two are so closely connected that it is impossible to separate the attributes of God’s word (Bible) from God Himself.

    Intro: The Gospel of John begins by calling “the Word of God” as God (Read John 1:1). This opens up an interesting study between “the Word” (Jesus) and “the word” (Bible). In our study we are going to see that God is so much similar to His word – the Bible. The two are so closely connected that it ...read more

I believe today the church is more divided than at any time since the day of ...read more
