He measured the city with the rod, and it was fifteen hundred miles. Its length and width andContinue reading “Is this supposed to impress?”

Needs
Now, about what you wrote: “It’s good for a man not to have sex with a woman.” Each man should have his own wife, and each woman should have her own husband because of sexual immorality.
