The Sacrifices God Is Pleased With Series

Contributed by Isaiah Banjo on Nov 30, 2020

Through Jesus, therefore, let us continually offer to God a sacrifice of Praise – the fruit of lips that confess his name. And do not forget to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices, God is pleased. (NIV) Hebrews 13:15-16 Quite a lot to identify in this scripture. 1. The ...read more
