One needs to be very careful you don’t write off certain Biblical Truths because they do not fit into your theology or doctrinal persuasion. Near to the commencement of my journey with the Lord Jesus I came across a book written by the late Billy Graham called … “I believe in angels.” I though it […]
We ought never to forget that Christianity is a religion established on the miraculous! That might seem like a sweeping statement, especially coming from one who believes that the “spectacular” gifts were withdrawn as we shall see later on in the Book of Acts.
