    Christ is to be exalted in everything we face in life.

    Christ is to be exalted in everything we face in life. The King James Version says Christ is to be magnified. When something is magnified it is enlarged.

    This sermon attempts to communicate that living by the law will not make you right with God rather you must be right to live right and you are made right by receiving righteousness from God whether Jew or Gentile.

That is, until you stop and think about how the jails of our nation are over crowded and how the court system is back logged with cases. I was talking with a lady one day who had been ...read more
