LIVING IN GOD’S FORGIVENESS – Part 1

Faith in a trustworthy God
Having faith in an eternal, almighty, loving and merciful, but righteous God is a difficult concept for many. How can a black cow eat green grass and produce white milk from which we make yellow butter? We don’t understand the metaphysics and chemistry behind...
Ennenvanhaan 1. Osa
Ajat ovat muuttuneet. Kauas on tultu siitä ajasta, kun koulupäivä alkoi aamuhartaudella. Avasimme pulpetin kannen ja kaivoimme sieltä virsikirjat esiin. Kukaan ei vastustanut eikä ihmetellyt; se oli aivan normaalia, kun lauloimme opettajan johdolla. Totuuden...

Sateenvarjot mukaan!
Pieni tyttö lähti kokoukseen vanhempiensa kanssa. Kokoontumisella oli tietty tarkoitus, sillä maa oli päässyt kuivumaan, eikä sadetta oltu saatu aikoihin. Seurakunta oli päättänyt kokoontua rukoilemaan sadetta. Kaikki olivat asiasta samaa mieltä: rukous...
Psalm 121: 3-4 Part 2 – HE KEEPS YOU.
