There are two paths, one leads to life, and the other to destruction. There are two kingdoms, one of light and the other of darkness. Every human being has a choice to make, it’s either Jesus or Satan.

Rejecting Jesus is choosing Satan, choosing to follow no one is still choosing Satan, choosing something else outside of Jesus Christ is still choosing Satan. God’s way is one, and that way is Christ Jesus. "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the ...read more
