What happened when he arrived at Golgotha? ... Read more

    by M. Maynard Ph.D., D. Lundy Ph.D., A. Davis, C. Wilcox ...
    God is returning for a church without spot or wrinkle. The world, its activities, and its ideologies have crept into the church and remained.

The Biblical truth taught by our church patriarchs and matriarchs ... Read more

He believed that to be a Christian is not to be a person who knows all the answers but one who "lives in the part of the self where the question is constantly being born."
