Contributed by Chris Appleby on May 17, 2013

Trapped In The Fog

Contributed by Rodney Johnson Sr., on Mar 7, 2013

The man born blind was trapped in the fog from birth. Until the light of Christ illuminates us, we too are trapped in the fog from birth.

“Trapped in the FOG” Introduction: Today we are introduced to a man who’s name could very well be “Mr. Born Blind.” Born Blind is a strange mixture of words in the believer’s community.

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 12, 2021

Almost everyone who writes on suffering does so out of their own personal encounter with this mysterious monster. In ...read more
