receiving a fresh vision of the church meetings and the church life in a very practical way
I was recently impressed in a fresh way regarding the meetings of the church. How can you say that you are in the church? Practically, one believer is in the church if he meets with the saints – if he is in the church meetings! You can’t truthfully say, Hallelujah, I’m part of the church! […]
