    We live in an age where people want to appear one way but, they are just the opposite of their appearance. Hypocrisy pollutes worship. The most beautiful singing, the largest gift and the most radical praise can all be done with the wrong motive.

    Anyone can be angry. The old can become angry as well as the young. The rich and the poor - all people have the capability to become angry. If I were to ask, of all the human emotions you're capable of experiencing, with which one does it seem to be the most difficult for you to cope?

That’s not to say it is bad, wrong, or sinful to have formal membership rolls, as having such is very practical and quite helpful to local ...read more
