Jesus loves us so much that He pursues us, and pleads with us to enter the kingdom and seek salvation. He knocks on the door to our heart. Jesus may knock on our heart’s door, but we need to be knocking on heaven’s gates!

It's a big Bible Word but it has a simple meaning. A disciple of Jesus is a follower or even more ...read more
