Disentangled from the Lies

Posted on June 24, 2018 by ehurst

It’s a moral perversion to ignore the real problem in favor of false accusations. If you are going to participate in revealing God’s truth, don’t drag the Devil into it. It’s one kind of problem to declare that there is … Continue reading →
