     | 4,888 views

    It is amazing how we can commend ourselves for this or that, but perhaps God has a different perspective about us. This is what the Church thought versus what God knew to be true.

    Alive but Dead Rev. 3:1-6 In our study of the church God has said: • Remember your first love • Persecution is only for a little season • The World is where Satan sits • Watch out for the doctrine of Jezebel Point: It is not what we think about the church that counts, but it ...read more
