Mary, Did You Know?
Who was this person called Mary? We all know her as the mother of Jesus. But, who was she?

Not Forsaking Assembly?
I can only find this statement once in the New Testament, Hebrews 10:25. “Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, and so much the more as you see the day approaching”. What day? The day of our Lords return to take us home. What is Paul saying to theContinue reading “Not Forsaking Assembly?”
