    This will be the sixth sermon on this series on eschatology. Three of the six sermons preached thus far have dealt with that time described as The Tribulation period, which will last for seven years

     | 1,815 views

    Today I will be preaching about Submission. This is a sermon dealing with Christian growth. The word “submit” in the Bible means “to submit to one’s control”, “to obey.”

    There were three guys talking about the amount of control they have over their wives, while the third remained quiet. • After a while one of the first two turns to the third and says, "Well, what about you, what sort of control do you have over your wife?" • The third fellow says ...read more
