We are to keep in mind that it is the Word of God that we need to hear, because the word of man cannot save you. It may delude ...read more

Sharing God's Sure Promises

Contributed by Jon Lipka on Jan 27, 2013

Eternal God, Creator of the universe, Who is beyond our knowing, has made Himself known to us, most especially in the Word made flesh, Jesus Christ. The Word of God should be reverently handled, and we should share the message it contains.

That is scientifically observable, determinable, objective and quantifiable, insofar we can know ...read more
