    I trust that so far in this study I have given you a wee food for thought to go with your Irish cream cheese muffins and that strong Irish tea that you've drinking.

    “Using The Holy Spirit” The past few weeks I have been speaking on the importance of the Holy Spirit and how He is essential to our salvation but that is only half of it. So this morning, as the late Paul ...read more

    Solomon is training us to develop discernment, the ability to distinguish between truth and lies, integrity and dishonesty, foolishness and wisdom. From his words, we can draw four important principles.
