    Friends In High Places Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on May 18, 2014
    based on 15 ratings
     | 37,636 views

    if God never intended for them to be enjoyed by His children and all who would become His Children.. Then why would He have ever created them in the first place?

    I'm Not Buying It ”If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally ...read more

As the Fourfold gospel commentary puts it, “Asking is a simple use of voice, seeking is a motion of the ...read more
