The word of God is living and active . . . (Hebrews 4:12)

Free To Be a Debtor
Lots of terms come to mind to describe the believer like . . . well, like believer. Or saint. Or brother or sister. Child of God. Disciple. Redeemed. New creation. You get the idea. And I’m sure we could add … Continue reading
