    Contributed by Carla Powell on Jan 2, 2002
    based on 91 ratings
     | 5,946 views

    Forgiveness

    Contributed by Michael Mccartney on Oct 26, 2005
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,756 views

    Many look at the concept and action of forgiveness in light of the negative connotation of the term the “F word!” They avoid saying it and doing it and feel for some mysterious reason that they are exempt from doing what Jesus described as being essential

Giving, Prayer, and Fasting (notes for Matt. 6:1-15) Since modern Judaism no longer has the Temple (in the Biblical sense) many Rabbis teach that charity, prayer, and fasting ...read more
