The Value Of A Child Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Dec 31, 2021

Joseph's Dreams

Contributed by D Marion Clark on Oct 6, 2016

When it comes to dreaming, many readers think Matthew is the dreamer by the way he uses Old Testament Scripture to back up his story. Is Matthew too anxious to justify his story that he twists Scripture to suit his purpose?
