Do we demand certain rituals or a simple word from God? Let's look at 2 Kings 5.

A King Like This - Part 2

Contributed by Chuck Brooks on Aug 26, 2020

As Jesus came to earth as a baby, destined to grow up and be the Lamb of God to be sacrificed for the sins of the world, He voluntarily limited the use of His divine attributes.

Jesus, who had come to earth as God and King, put on a body. He was God, but He restricted the independent use of His deity, ...read more
