The Biblical Motif: “This is War!”
Have you ever heard any of the following statements about God? He is in control of everything on earth. He either causes or allows all things. He can do whatever He wants.

What is True Unity?
Other than the Super Bowl®, February is probably most noted for Valentine’s Day. Roses and chocolate will abound as couples affirm their undying love for one another.
