Many Pretenders — Only One Savior
February 8 2010 by D.E. Parkerson
Jesus said, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through me” (John 14:6). How do we know He was telling the truth? Anybody can make that assertion. In fact, lots of people have! Sabbatai Zebi is one of the most intriguing people to pose as the Messiah.

February 2 2010 by D.E. Parkerson

Snow and ice closed lots of church buildings last Sunday and unless I miss my guess, it kept a lot of checks from being written, as well.
