Satan doesn’t care if you are a Christian. In fact, he probably prefers that you are a Christian. That doesn’t sound right, does it?

They Did It Wrong, So We Know What Is Right I’ve concluded that (almost) everything first century churches did, they messed up. Oh, they did much good, especially in evangelism (1 Thessalonians). However, I think it is safe to say we often know what churches were supposed to do right because they got corrected when […]
