    Within the church, there is a belief that everything is under the direct sovereign control of God, therefore He ordains what satan and his minions do.

    It is also believed that when people get sick or suffer horrible tragedies, it is the will of God because He "allowed/ordained" it. God is the Holy and transcendent one. He is sovereign, omniscient, omnipotent, omnipresent and omnibenevolent. He knows all things past, present, and ...read more

    Real faith is not just something you say, feel, think or even believe, it is something you DO.

    "What does it take to really please God?"

The only way you can please God is by faith. What does that really mean? We ...read more
