An Invitation To Healing (Bonus Week) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 25, 2022

If there was an apt description of the attitude of the Pharisees towards the person and work of the Lord Jesus Christ (John 5:18), it is this, "There are none so blind as those who will not see". All throughout this account of the Lord's life and work and in the other Gospels as ...read more
