WORLD WORD-WAR

“As long as Moses kept his hands raised up, Israel had the better of the fight.” –Exodus 17:11 We are in a war against demons (Eph 6:12). As the Church, we are attacking the gates of hell which cannot prevail against us (Mt 16:18).

THE DOWN PAYMENT

October 2022 | Bible Quiz – 94 ( II Thessalonians ) – [ in English ] “You too were chosen; when you heard the glad tidings of salvation, the word of truth, and believed in it, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit Who had been promised.

This shows us how literally it is to be taken that without Jesus, we can do nothing (Jn 15:5). For example, without the brain in your head giving commands...
