Mt.4:3 “And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread.” Notice something: He didn’t say, do a magic trick and turn these stones into bread, but he said, “command them.” That’s an implication that an inanimate object, such as a stone, ...read more

God Is With Us

Contributed by Larry Grant on Dec 18, 2021

If our greatest need had been military, God would have sent a soldier. If our greatest need had been justice, God would have sent a judge. If our greatest need had been legislation, God would have sent a politician. But, our greatest need was salvation and therefore God sent a Savior!
