The Marks Of A Christian - Loyalty

Contributed by Grant Adams on Jan 2, 2020

Loyalty is a devotion and faithfulness to a nation, cause, philosophy, country, group, or person. Loyalty is hard to find. Trust is easy to lose. Actions speak louder than words. Quote taken from Quotling.com

Wealth, on the other hand, is no guarantee of being truly rich. Even rich Christians are often not rich just because they have wealth. Charles Schultz, ...read more
