    Sermon - God’s Instructions For Purposeful Living

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Mar 11, 2025
     | 843 views

     | 5,327 views

    It is not possible for us to be faithful disciples of Jesus who make disciples with the Bible playing a proper role in our lives. The lordship of Jesus is exercised when we carefully follow the teachings of the Bible, and we can't follow what we don't know.

The boy walked up to her and asked, “Are you a Christian?” “Yes,” she replied. 2. Then the boy asked, “Do you read your Bible every day?” She nodded her head, ...read more
