Awesome Vs. Foolish Series

Contributed by Dr. Dave Hartson on Jan 20, 2022

It is verse 29 and it says: Hebrews 11:29 (NKJV) 29 By faith they (referring to the Israelites) passed through ...read more

The Foolishness Of The Message Of The Cross

Contributed by Anitha Jabastion on Jul 23, 2021

For Jews request a sign, and Greeks seek after wisdom; but we preach Christ crucified, to the Jews a ...read more
