    Should we not resist to flaunt wealth or even seek it as a pastor when the world and even poor Christians think we lack integrity loving mammon rather than God?

    "Piety and prosperity seldom go hand in hand..." "We live in a day when the temptation to the indulgence of the flesh is very great. Luxuries are common.

     | 3,546 views

    Just because we are chosen by God, baptized into Christ, does not mean that we are infallibly going to attain God’s promises. We are always tempted, as Christ was, to follow the allurements of the world, flesh and devil.

     | 1,539 views

    Alba 2-12-2023 NOTHING BUT THE BLOOD Ephesians 2:11-13 Tuesday is Valentine’s Day. At this time you see a lot of hearts because the heart, in our culture, represents love.
