For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus. Romans 8:1

Posted on 04/13/2020 by remso

Posted on 04/05/2020 by remso

Do Not Cause Another to Stumble Paul opens Romans 14 by talking about those who don’t believe what you believe and, therefore, can’t eat what you eat. In some translations, Paul is said to call this a weaker faith. In … Continue reading →
