Systems Of Belief Series

Contributed by Vince Miller on Aug 28, 2018

No one wants to live in a lie, however, as a believing being, many men live with corrupt beliefs that influence their thoughts and actions.

Contributed by Anitha Jabastion on Jul 14, 2020

Caleb and Joshua were the only two Israelites of those aged 20 and older to survive from Kadesh-Barnea to Canaan. Caleb, on his 85th birthday, asked for his inheritance--a mountain!

As a result, every Israelite ...read more

Prepare For The Coming Of Jesus

Contributed by Craig Condon on Oct 28, 2015
