People are begining to do politics.My church has fundraised for someone contesting local municipial elections.I think they rise through their party's ranks to become a governor or a senator or even a president.

why are there so many biblical translations out there? To some people ,specially muslims and atheists, the existance of so many versions of the bible is an indication that it is corrupted and hence no longer the word of God.There are also many who s…

Mozes,
I beg to disagree about your formula. The Lord owns the $100 that He gave you the chance to earn. He is Merciful to grant you $90 to keep and asks that you …

good luck

If Doxsasi is married,then I think he is not in real good position to tell the still unmarried to disregard the life history of the wife or husband-to- be.If Zoxsasi is married, I would be curious to know if the issue of virginity ,provided he had u…
