    Confident To Serve Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Aug 25, 2019
     | 4,441 views

    As Jesus continued to provide instructions regarding the ministry He had called the disciples to engage, again He emphasized the difficulty they would encounter. Although this was a worthy task, with eternal implications, their opposition would be evident and extensive.

While their task was certainly worthwhile, having eternal ...read more

    Was it the act of eating from the tree that was the BIG problem, or was it the sin of disobedience, doubting God’s character and not trusting His words? The poison was not so much in the fruit but in the heart!
