based on 56 ratings

| 4,132 views

The Bible sees no contradiction between the equality of men and women before God, and the distinction in roles in marriage.

Last Sunday, I spoke on the issue of male headship in the home. I mentioned that this was a difficult topic to preach on, because this is an area where our society is so far out of synch with God’s plan.

But instead of using the 555 prefix that movie makers and TV shows generally give phone numbers – they gave God a 776 prefix. ...read more

What Crime Did Jesus Commit? Series

Contributed by Rick Duncan on Mar 9, 2004

based on 54 ratings

| 11,129 views
