    Jesus’s Reality, My Reality

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on May 16, 2020
     | 5,956 views

    Jesus says we can do the works that He did. So why aren’t more Christians doing them? This message identifies nine reasons why the body of Christ, in general, is not doing the works of Jesus.

    Jesus’ Reality, My Reality For the most part, the Church, the body of Christ, doesn’t understand who it is as it relates to being part of God’s family. Please turn to 1 John 3.

The classic question of this sort is “When did you stop beating your wife?” One immediately sees the trap in this question. No matter how one answers the ...read more
