    Many people wonder what they can leave their children as an inheritance. You can give them land, money, possessions and power... but nothing compares to the inheritance that God says is one of the most important. What is that inheritance?

     | 5,857 views

    Mark 16:16 seems to be a forthright desciption of how to become a Christian, but of the centuries people have "rearranged" the words to fit their theology. How have they done that, and why does it matter?

    The Bible tells us that… at the tower of Babel, God confused the people’s language so they couldn’t understand each other.
