Faith & Christian Living

Therefore my beloved, just as always you have obeyed, not only as in my presence, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling (Philippians 2:12). The Scriptures declare concerning the entire human race that “for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God” (Romans […]

“The responsibility of Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest is the oil for the light and the fragrant incense and the continual grain offering and the anointing oil– the responsibility of all the tabernacle and of all that is in it, with the sanctuary and its furnishings” (Numbers 4:16). We shall conclude the study

“The responsibility of Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest is the oil for the light and the fragrant incense and the continual grain offering and the anointing oil– the responsibility of all the tabernacle and of all that is in it, with the sanctuary and its furnishings” (Numbers 4:16). As we established earlier, the

“The responsibility of Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest is the oil for the light and the fragrant incense and the continual grain offering and the anointing oil– the responsibility of all the tabernacle and of all that is in it, with the sanctuary and its furnishings” (Numbers 4:16).

“Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy” (Matthew 5:7) We all stumble in many ways (James 3:2) and there is no man who does not sin (2 Chronicles 6:36). In this life, “it is impossible that no offenses should come (Luke 17:1)”. Many may offend you in life, and you are probably going
