    What made the early believers so effective in sharing their faith?

    In Matthew 5:13-15, Jesus says His followers are to be “salt” and “light” in the world. Just as salt makes one thirsty, the testimony of Christ followers is to create a thirst in the hearts of those who do not know Him. And, just as light helps us see things clearly, the ...read more

    Arise, My Child! Series

     | 5,833 views

    For Christians, death is merely a passage to life by faith in Christ only! When Jesus encounters people who need Him two things happen: 1) He willingly goes to where they are and, 2) they do whatever it takes to come to Him. We should live the same way!
