Satan’s schemes are prolific and we touch on only a few of them. This time I will do the selected men Satan used to murder hundreds of millions; and we look at the damage from Higher Criticism and liberalism in the churches. Prosperity teaches are looked at. We are conscious of Satan’s schemes.

Paul was Timothy’s spiritual mentor. Many of the things we find instilled in Timothy’s life were placed there by Paul.
For example, so many of the things we do, are the result of our parents instilling certain values within us as a child. For example: • Some vote for the same political party their parents voted for. They would not think of changing political parties, because that was the political party their ...read more
