    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Oct 23, 2019
    based on 4 ratings

If anyone hears my voice and ...read more

    Legitimate Use Of Rituals Series

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Apr 29, 2024
     | 762 views

In that study, we did not have time to talk about why God gave Abraham the rite of circumcision. If it is of no value for justification, then what is its ...read more
