    If Christ is the head of the church, no bullying can ever be justified to bring about the result a leader desires. We must permit the Spirit of God to rule the church, and not mere mortals.

    Daniel's Vision Of World History Part 2 Series

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Mar 30, 2022
     | 2,509 views

There seems to be a definite break between verses 35 and 36. What we are about to see in the remainder of this vision is ...read more
