Suffering compared with glory. Romans 8:18-30

Today the Mormons came to my door.

Posted on 10/19/2019 by remso

I don’t like confrontation, nor do I like to embarrass myself, so typically I tell the Mormons and the Jehovah’s Witness, that I am not interested, and they leave; but not today. For years I have heard others talk about … Continue reading →
