    One of the spiritual blessings referred to in verse 3 is this: chosen in Him, before the foundation of the world! (#2 in the "Every Spiritual Blessing" series)

    Over the past couple of months we have looked at the basics of our Christian beliefs. We considered God’s natural revelation of Himself to all. How we believe in God because our observation of the world demands it. We looked at our belief in the word of God, the Bible, through which we come to ...read more
