Isaiah 53:7 He was oppressed and He was afflicted, yet He OPENED NOT HIS MOUTH; He was lead as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before its shearers is silent, SO HE OPENED NOT HIS MOUTH. Do we often believe that we as Christ followers are...
Trials?
Jesus told us that in this world we would have tribulation. There was a time in my life that I felt like everything was falling apart and didn’t know what was happening or if I would ever smile again. I have to say mostly due to my own bad...
God’s Kingdom?
There is no kingdom where there is no people. What does God’s word say about God’s kingdom? Matthew 13:36-38 Then Jesus sent the multitudes away and went into the house. And His disciples came to Him, saying, “Explain to us the parable of the tares in the field.” He...
