You “You said every church throughout history was corrupted by greed.” Me. Starting from the Book of Acts and all the way to Revelation, corruption of the churches revealed in all the writings of the Apostles. You. “Now you back pedal and revise your assertion to be: all the churches you ever...

I write exactly what I seen and experienced in my life, and this is true what every single church I ever visit in my life, I saw the same thing, lies, false doctrines, and greed, and I totally agree with Paul and with all other men of GOD who criticized church for their hypocrisy. Your...

THE PRUDENCE Titus 2.2-3 In these verses Paul addresses older men and women, who in their age should be experienced in all aspects of life, have some wisdom, conscience, and enough morality to teach younger generation the way of GOD, not the way of the world, but the way of the Gospel of...
