Are You Fit To Be Tied? Part Iv

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 1, 2022

These days we often hear the question, "Why are there so many divorces?" The answer to that question is found in the Word of God. It is because of sin.

All across this nation we have lost our fear of sin. Fear will cause us to protect ourselves and avoid what is harmful to us. Illus: Most of us have a real healthy fear of snakes.
