Both Sides

2565) Sometimes comparing is good. If you’re in a grocery store, you might pick up several oranges and look closely at each one. You’re looking for the best and freshest fruit compared to ones that aren’t. John 10:10 gives us an important comparison. John reminds us here that God’s enemy (and ours) only seeks to

Seeing is Believing?

2247) “Seeing is believing” is a phrase that sounds reasonable, but is it, really? I ask this question because if we stop and think about this phrase; we realize it’s faulty.
