Re: Outer darkness: A thousand years? or for eternity?

Really?

Re: The Orthodox Churches

He may have asked a question as an atheist, but are you saying that atheists can't ask questions that require a...

Re: Outer darkness: A thousand years? or for eternity?

Re: Witness Lee Sanitized - LSM's Life-Study Radio Broadcast Examined

Hello friend,

You may have just passed through, and perhaps you won't be back, but I feel I should address what you wrote as you speak in despair and some desperation, I sense. You have invested...
