A Passion To Serve

Contributed by Chuck Brooks on Sep 3, 2020

If one were to take a survey and ask Christians the question “Do you love the Lord” the results of the survey would probably indicate that 99.9% of all surveyed "loved the Lord." Most would even say they "loved the Lord a lot." If one were to survey these same people and ask ...read more

While these were sent solely to the house of Israel, prior to Jesus’ death and ...read more
