    Contributed by Kelvin Mckisic on Mar 24, 2025
     | 581 views

    This sermon will give us greater understanding of the one who wants to drag us to hell, the devil. We will come to know that Satan is the originator of lies, and the deceiver of mankind.

So, this is my time to give you an ...read more
