    For our God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints (1 Cor.14:33) Why are there so much church split, in-house fighting, competitions, division, chaos, anger, and bitterness among the Saints of God? Why is it that the sick and diseased are not healed, the ...read more
