    The Galatians were clothed with Christ, but they'd been convinced that Jesus wasn't enough. Someone had told them they needed to follow rules and laws to be acceptable to God. Why was that false?

    We end the schemes of Satan and consider a number of issues including the way Satan destroys so much. We look again into Islamic terrorism and the wicked United Nations. Our Governments are failing the people. Also, the weapons build-up.

It was made of pure white marble weighing 24,500 pounds and had been dragged through the streets of Washington from the railroad station to the site. It was a dramatic event - attended by a crowd of about 20,000 people. ...read more
