Becoming A Citizen Of Heaven • Amb.Elisha

Jesus is Lord, and we must never exalt what He never exalted! The Bible clearly outlines the purpose of Jesus' coming, as prophesied by Isaiah.

The importance of naming is rooted in intention, and this is something God exemplifies throughout the Bible. If you look closely, you’ll see how God frequently cha...
