While we live on the face of this earth, we will have troubles, hardships and trials. As followers of Jesus Christ, we have an arch enemy in Satan, who is out to destroy the church.

One of the two immediately told his brother, who he then brought to Jesus. Jesus found Philip and … Continue reading Come and See
