    based on 54 ratings
     | 7,215 views

    This sermon discusses the unity Jesus prayed for his people in John 17. It is the kind of koininia exemplified in the Trinity. This unity occurs because of change of heart rather than a change of organizational structure.

We are prone to focus is on what we desire and how we can receive what we want and need from the Lord. That’s not wrong. God tells us to delight ourselves in Him and ...read more

I have decided to split the topic into four different areas. Firstly, what are miracles and what ...read more
