Aligning Yourselves With The Purposes Of God

Contributed by John Gaston on Oct 8, 2013

What made Peter different from other men, that people fell dead before him, that his shadow healed the sick, that 1,000s were saved when he preached? It was his intimate exposure to Jesus and his aligning himself with the purposes of God.

I find it hard to believe what many of these television preachers preach and teach most of the time. Much of it is UNSCRIPTURAL AND RIDICULOUS! They make the Lord’s work look bad! When one comes up with a new idea for making more money, the others seem to follow. I am sure there must be some good ...read more
