Later, when they found the car with the little boys in it, she confessed that she had done this horrendous thing herself. When it ...read more

But one I can say for certain is that it is no doubt one of the most debated sections of the book of James and ...read more

Therefore they believe the wicked had to be judged and to be rewarded in this life for ...read more
