    Paul’s final theological words to the Romans hold a lot of weight. But in some ways Paul says to ’lighten up!’ when it comes to dealing with people who are different than us in the body of Christ.

    "for Thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory forever. Amen!" Whoa! We know this is true but why is it in some Bibles and not others? Are there some Bibles that are better than others? Were errors made? Should we fight over them? Lord please help us!

    Over the last five weeks we have been taking a look at The Lord’s Prayer and today we come to the end of verse 13 which says … Matthew 6:13 “For Thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.” That is a grand statement! I love getting to that part of the ...read more

    Is it not a true testimony that the “word of God is a living powerful”, and that “ all God’s promises are Yes and Amen?” Is not our God an awesome God? Who is like him? Who can guard like him? Who is so loving as he is? The whole bible is full of promises

We know that his father was Haran and that he joined the household of his uncle Abram and aunt Sarai after the death of his father (interestingly, it was one of Abram’s ...read more
