    Reflection B.4 / Does God Have A Purpose In Coronavirus? / The Old Testament Prophets – Still Relevant Today!

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on May 11, 2020
     | 1,646 views

First, the Old Testament prophets take up more of the Bible than the whole of the New Testament! We believe God ...read more
