Answers for Rick. The leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations. Revelation 22.

The marks of a true Christian – what does that mean? Romans 12:9-21.

Suffering compared with glory. Romans 8:18-30
My first thought, the Glory of God’s presence, is something I can only vaguely describe, and all I understand of heaven boils down to one simple word, peace. So, there truly is no comparison, especially those who sit beside me … Continue reading
