Of all the things He could have started His ministry with and ended His ministry with, He started it by being baptized and concluded it by commanding the church to make disciples and baptize others. Now, since baptism was the bookends ...read more

Salvation - In Three Tenses

Contributed by Pastor Renji George on Jun 16, 2024

But if we believe a half truth, there is a possibility that we would never come to the full truth. Gospel is the gospel of God. It doesn’t need any human touch on it. It ...read more
