    The Curse Of Sin - Part 1 Series

     | 1,449 views

    Sin left a curse. God’s curse is the absence of His blessings and the fall of Adam and Eve is only one of two places in the Bible where God pronounces a curse (the other being on Cain). There is a greater reality we often fail to see and that is there is hope in the curse.

His love and concern for the church cannot be missed or overlooked. He is now a seasoned apostle and his focus is ...read more

    In the absence of Jesus' physical presence on earth, Christians are Jesus' locums here on earth- carrying out the tasks Jesus had been doing whiles he was physically here.
