    Resurrection Deception

    Contributed by Robert Sickler on Jan 9, 2015
     | 3,863 views

Christendom is over flowing with those who are simple enough to buy almost anything the snake-oil-doctrine purveyors are ...read more

IT’S EASY TO LIVE IN A WORLD OF ABSOLUTES, TO BE ABLE TO SAY THIE IS RIGHT AND THAT IS WRONG. WHY, BECAUSE THE BIBLE SAYS SO. BUT HERE PAUL MAKES US ASK THE QUESTION IS ...read more
