Looking In God's Mirror

Contributed by Bruce Hadley on Jul 27, 2021

Do what it says. 23 Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like someone who looks at his face in a mirror 24 and, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like. ...read more

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 14, 2022

Notice, the Bible says in verse 22, “And he went through the cities and villages, teaching, and journeying toward Jerusalem.”
