A Day’s Wages Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 25, 2022

Gathering lost souls for the kingdom is considered labor. When Jesus returns, the payment that laborers (believers) receive is eternal life, and that exact same wage goes to all who have been hired, or rather called, by the Lord.
