Very well said. I agree Many Christians have moved away from the Bible. My
concern is with the prophesies of the Bible. There is a clear warning for
all who will listen of what is in store for this world.
What has happened in CO is crazy!! I just heard there could be up to 25
fatalities.
WHAT IS HAPPENING TO OUR CHILDREN ????????????
