Phillips wrote a book that he gave a title that fascinates me entitled, Your God Is Too Small. He writes, ...read more

    Noah could build,he could preach,he could bear the ridicule and mocking of the people. But, as strong as he was there was one thing he could not do. He could not shut the door.

Every man was invited to enter the ark, none were refused admittance. (1) The Ark Is A Signal To the Sinner (A) ...read more
