THE HARDEST SEVEN WORDS TO PRAY

THE HARDEST SEVEN WORDS TO PRAY By Jeannette Haley “If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, Ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.” –John 15:7       What a wonderful privilege we have as Christians to come before the Majesty in heaven in prayer. Hebrews 4:16 […]

“PEG-LEG” CHRISTIANS?

“PEG-LEG” CHRISTIANS? By Jeannette Haley “Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ Hath made us free, and be not entangled again With the yoke of bondage.” – Galatians 5:1        We all laugh when our beloved friend, Rayola, accidentally calls Peleg (in Genesis 11) “Peg-Leg.” We know from Scripture that in Peleg’s time, “the […]
