1M ago16:41

16:41

WHAT LABEL DO YOU LIVE UNDER? What's wrong with this picture? The Protestant Reformation happened around 1500 years ago. It was a separation from the Catholic Church based on Martin Luther's revelation that the "just shall live by faith" and not by the rule of a church or under the control of a pope.

16:27

POCKETS OF WISDOM AND REVELATION Why do some people in a large or small gathering who are listening to the word of God not hear the same thing?

I conclude that the problem is…

WHAT'S NEXT FOR US IN THE BODY OF CHRIST? HERE'S A FLASH FOR YOU! You can expect change. It is part of God's nature that he injected into everything he created. If it's not growing, it's dying.

18:08

NOW THAT YOU HAVE ASK HIM-DO YOU RECOGNIZE THE ANSWER? The scriptures clearly tell us that if we ask anything in prayer believing, we shall receive it.

5M ago17:24

17:24

WHY THE APOSTLE PAUL DIDN'T WANT TO KNOW ANYONE AFTER THE FLESH? Some would consider Paul's statement to be one of a hermit, or at best, a mystic who wanted to live in a cave.
