The Harvest Series

Contributed by Paul Basehore on Sep 29, 2015

We need to be made holy by cutting ourselves off from the world, and relying on our life in Christ to give us strength. If we don’t, we will rot and die.

God is Spirit and he only gives birth to spirits, therefore anyone that is born of him, is reborn spiritually not physically. Your Mother and Father gave ...read more
