Thou Art The Christ

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Dec 1, 2019

Church – The Essential Service Series

Contributed by Allan Quak on Nov 22, 2018

Sometimes Christians treat the church as an emergency service … a place to go when you need spiritual help and security, but to be avoided when all is well. But the church is the only institution which can stand against the gates of Hades. Therefore church is an essential service.
