One of the first scriptures the Holy Spirit quickened to me was "If You continue in My Word, then are you my disciples and you shall know the truth and the truth will make you free" My goal is freedom Lance and so I take every Word of Scripture very seriously. > > Lance: > Am I the only one smiling on certain occasions, saddened on others, and even angered at the presumptuousness on yet further occasions? > > John responds: > You are right, of course.
