     | 422 views

    Contributed by Brian Williams on Jul 13, 2023
     | 2,209 views

As a result you would probably feel marginalized and rejected and have no clue about how to come to God in your current state. Many established religions today put ...read more

    There was a wonderful atmosphere around Jesus: there was the prophetic, the counter-culture, the miracles, the crowds, the excitement. But not everyone liked it. The carnal tried to suppress the Spirit.
