The churches today act a lot like that. People use the same rules and actions in the church as they do in the political world. My ...read more

A Vision Of World Peace Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Feb 26, 2022

The subject of peace has universal interest. There are international conferences in process working toward world peace. Why is there such an interest in world peace? It is because of the atrocity of war and the devastation it brings. You may have seen the bumper sticker, “Visualize World Peace.” ...read more
