    In order to prevent Christians from becoming zombies who walk around without a clear sense of their identity it is essential to define who we are in Christ. Let us learn how to fully realize and appropriate our identity in Christ with the following twelve

Now, I know that most of us have already said yes to the Lord...being ...read more

    The value of all else pales when compared with the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ, "whom to know aright is life everlasting."

    THE SURPASSING VALUE OF THE KNOWLEDGE OF CHRIST "But whatever things were gain to me, those things I have counted as loss for the sake of Christ.
