[26] Then went the captain with the officers, and brought them without violence: for they feared the people, lest...

    Has anyone found secret messages in the bible?

    Don’t know about an extension for editing, but might I suggest you alter your writing style into smaller chunks (paragraphs). Some writing critics have argued for a seven line maximum length, because most modern readers balk at lengthy phrases. Bite-sized nuggets of information are easier to...

    about Suicide

    So, your’e saying one has to die without even one small sin that has not been repented of. I dare say , no one would be saved, if that is the case. You place too much emphasis on man, and forget the victory through .Jesus

    Hamas coming after Christians.

    Bologna. Many passages in Scripture support the fact that Israel will possess the Promised Land forever. For example, God spoke to Isaac in Genesis 26:3, saying, “Stay in this land for a while, and I will be with you and will bless you. For to you and your descendants I will give all these...

    Do We Have Any Christian Essentials From Jesus Christ Which Are Absolutely Unnecessary And, if so, Which Ones?
