What is the right question…
In the parable of the Good Samaritan the lawyer asks 2 questions and Jesus asks 3… My wondering is on the first question… ‘what must I do to inherit eternal life?’ – This question has been argued and discussed and mulled over and a number of different things through out that ages… What must IContinue reading “What is the right question…”
