Contributed by John Williams Iii on Aug 29, 2002

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 8, 2021

It is filled with what is temporal rather than eternal; physical rather than spiritual; and world oriented rather than heaven oriented. Christmas is really a ...read more

While in the Middle East, I saw the prison cell in Cesarea, which held Paul before Herod Agrippa ...read more
