Reformation Day

It follows that no human being will be treated as righteous in his presence by doing what the Law says, becauseContinue reading “Reformation Day”
Why?
As Jesus and his disciples were going out of Jericho a large crowd followed him.

Abraham gave a tenth of everything to him. His name means first “king of righteousness,” and then “king of Salem,” that is, “king of peace.” He is withoutContinue reading “Without”
Serve
Before the Festival of Passover, Jesus knew that his time had come to leave this world and go to the Father. Having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them fully.
