    Your victory is closest to you than before, because you are born to win. However, there is something too strong for the devil to break in you and that is what determines your victory in all areas of life. It is the God-kind of life in you, which begins with new birth.

He is confined within the Roman Mamertine prison, awaiting his execution. Paul’s final days are lived in the shadow of the ...read more

    The old argument between Paul and James, faith or works, is really two sides of the same coin. Both are needed for a church’s life to be whole. Preached on a Sunday when members were asked to sign up for various ministries.

Two different people, just because they are different personalities, can read the same data, hear all the same pros and cons, examine all the same ...read more
