    If your willing, you can do all things through Christ, who strengthens you.

    I. Able, But Not Willing. So many times, we could accomplish more, see more, and receive more if we were just willing to use our abilities. For example let's look at Pharaoh.

    It is called; "A Christmas Carol” written by Charles Dickens. The publishing of his book was hugely popular; its first printing of 6,000 copies sold out in less than three days, and that was back in 1843 on December 19th just 6 days before Christmas; that was without computers, television, not ...read more

    We all have heard about the prosperity gospel and none of us sitting here actually like it. Well mostly. I might want to take a look at it if I can get my hands on that BMW next week, because of something the prosperity gospel promises. Right? Jokes apart, we do realise that prosperity gospel is a ...read more
