EVANGELISM, RESPONSIBILITY OF
THE PRESS secretary of the White House has one job—to speak on behalf of the head of state, represented in the White House by the president. What he thinks is irrelevant.

ABOUT four or five years ago in Texas, a pilot left the motor running on a plane and somehow this plane engaged itself. It was without a pilot and took off. It was flying on its own.

WE ALL grew up in school having to say the Pledge of Allegiance.

They’d be down there, on the sidelines, jumping around and yelling, … Continue reading “ENCOURAGEMENT,

DIVINE NATURE
IF A PERSON has accepted the Lord Jesus Christ as their Savior, then God has deposited within them a divine nature. Divine nature is the nature of God deposited inside of the believer in seed form.
