    Citizens Of Heaven

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Mar 28, 2015
     | 6,606 views

    As we imitate Paul’s behaviour, and as we learn from the faith and life of our Christian brothers and sisters, the result is a community of people who resemble Christ. Jesus showed us what it’s like to be fully human and to be right with God.

Man cannot readily recognize things of a spiritual nature because he does not see, hear, touch, nor smell or taste a ...read more
