    Three Ways To Deal With God

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 30, 2022
     | 1,808 views

    In this sermon, I want to deal with a STATEMENT we find in the scriptures that says, “There is no God!”

Now if He could be seen they would not be able to state that. But just because we can not see Him ...read more

    There is coming a day, and that day is at the blowing of the seventh trumpet, that the great mystery of a supposedly silent God will end. Before that seventh trumpet is blown, an interlude takes place, and that interlude is chapter 10.
