The Sovereignty of God, Trump, and the IRGC

There are a great many things to be said about the moral justification (or not) of actions taken by world leaders against other world leaders and nations.

Armageddon: The Iranian Conflict and End Times
Well. I finally saw the word used in association with events currently at play in the Middle East.

People who believe the earth is old claim to believe it is old based on some manner of carbon dating. They claim to base their theories of evolution on similarities in genetic sequences or fossils. In the same manner,…

Hebrews 10 19 Therefore, brethren, since we have confidence to enter the holy place by the blood of Jesus, 20 by a new and living way which He inaugurated for us through the veil, that is, His flesh, 21 and since we have a great priest over the house of God, 22 let us draw…
