Why The World, and the Church, Rejects The Message of Jesus

Last updated on: July 28, 2023 at 5:22 pm By Keith Giles

0 Comments

It’s quite common for Christians to bemoan the fact that the “World” – meaning non-Christians – reject the Gospel message of Jesus. What they mean to suggest is that they are the ones who embrace the message of Jesus while everyone else foolishly and ignorantly rejects his message.

What’s The Best Version of The Bible?

Last updated on: July 19, 2023 at 12:30 pm By Keith Giles
