Karl D Coke Proverbs 3:19-20 says, “By wisdom the LORD laid the earth’s foundations, by understanding he set the heavens in place; by his knowledge the deeps were divided, and the clouds let drop the dew.’, This passage reveals a truth most impressive.

Clifford Denton The First Century Church in Jerusalem was not complicated by video recorders, telephones, televisions, computers, micro-wave cookers, cars, supermarkets, and Internet. The education of children was in a simpler setting. It was a responsibility for the family. It began at home. Practical trades were valued. Torah was at the heart of all the […]

In apostolic times and briefly afterward the Jewish believer in Yeshua, while subject to […]
