The year was 1968 and John Stephen Akhwari was in Mexico in a bid to clinch Tanzania’s ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 2,290 views

    In verses 1-3: The story of Ruth happens at some point during the time of the judges. These were dull days for Israel, when "every man did that which was right in his own eyes" (Judges 17:6, 21:25). Regardless, during those dim and fiendish occasions, there were still some who followed ...read more

The baptism of Jesus was originally assigned to the same date as the birth because Luke 3:23 was read to mean that Jesus ...read more
