Matthew 26:41 Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak. Wait… the title of this story is “The Flesh is Willing”, yet this scripture claims it is weak… and it was Jesus who actually said it… so, that must be right! No, I am not trying ...read more

Contributed by James Dina on Jul 21, 2020

Panoorin at manalangin "Pagkatapos ay napunta siya sa mga alagad at nasumpungan silang natutulog, at sinabi kay Pedro," Ano! Hindi mo ba ako makakapanood ng isang oras? Tingnan at manalangin, baka kayo ay pumasok sa tukso. ...read more
