What Should The Church Be In 2013?

Contributed by Jerry Flury on Feb 16, 2013

Making Something Good Out Of Something Bad

Contributed by Craig Condon on Aug 10, 2016

God is never responsible for evil acts, but he is so wise that he uses evil acts to accomplish his good purposes. God oversees our wicked actions. No sin happens that God does not deliberately allow.
