John 4:4-26 Look, will you, at this picture. There sits a man in the strength and buoyancy of young manhood. He is only thirty or thereabouts. About him is the atmosphere of vigor and vitality that belong to the spring-time of life. But to-day he is a bit tired. There is a droop in his shoulders. Hi... Read More
Acts 26; 1 Timothy 1. The apostle Paul is the pattern of all who are called and converted now, though they may not come up to the pattern.
