He says, "I’ll also ask you a question. Tell me, was...

In times like these, it's crucial to remember that 'the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.' That means when we face disagreements, no matter how intense, we have to stay rational and self-controlled.

Have you ever stopped to ask: Should Christians really retire? In modern America, retirement often means stepping away from meaningful work to pursue leisure and comfort.

Peter left his fishing business to become a fisher of men. Reformers like Mart...
