Study 6. Jesus - The Bridge Between God And Man Series

Contributed by Eric Sellgren on Feb 8, 2002

Many other people came to recognise that Jesus was God in the New Testament.

Study 8 - Willing To Struggle? Series

Contributed by Eric Sellgren on Feb 13, 2002

Study 8 - Are you willing to struggle with the real meat of Christian teaching?

"God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit".
