1 Cor.2:1,4,5 - My brothers and sisters, when I first came to proclaim to you the secrets of God, I refused to come as an expert, trying to impress you with my eloquent speech and lofty wisdom....The message I preached and how I preached it was not an attempt to sway you with persuasive arguments …
Jn. 15:1 - I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser. Jn. 15:4,5 - Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself unless it abides in the vine, so neither can you unless you abide in Me. “I am the vine, you are the branches; …
MERRY MONDAY BY PARRIS “And when Jesus saw that a crowd came running together, he rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, “You mute and deaf spirit, I command you, come out of him and never enter him again.” And after crying out and convulsing him terribly, it came out, and the boy was like …
