    The idea of peace dominates the Bible. There are four hundred references to peace in the Bible. It opens with peace in the Garden of Eden and closes with peace in the new heavens and new earth. In fact, a study of redemptive history could be made from the standpoint of peace. Man’s sin interrupted ...read more

It was expected that he would avail himself of the early morning hours; and when what seemed the golden opportunity had gone in inactivity, there were ...read more
