    Who would have ever dreamed that in the United States of America, it would be against the law to go to church, sing praises to God, or have a Bible Study in your house? What happens when it is against the law to pray?

    Legal Counsel For Christians Series

     | 1,897 views

    Jesus provides counsel on domestic disputes, sex crimes, adultery and divorce; and He even says something that can be applied to swearing on the Bible in a court of law. Jesus, being part of the court of heaven, knows about legal matters!

The most noteworthy example is the great white throne of judgement seen in the book of Revelation (20:11-15). Did you know that Jesus will be there ...read more

    Proverbs has a lot to say about the wise use of money. Money can be a great blessing or a terrible curse, and it depends on the wisdom we use as we pursuit it and use it.
