Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 11, 2022

As we were growing up, many of our parents tried to warn us about dangers that we faced, but we could not see them until later in life.

We read, “And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is ...read more
