Reference: Genesis 17:3-9 Among the essential attributes of God, omnipresence is often explained as "God is everywhere". However, a message I recently listened to shed a bit more light to mean "God is present at all times and in all times". That is He is in the past, the present and the future. He was,...

A CHANGE IN PERSPECTIVE
Numbers 21:5 And the people spoke against God and against Moses: “Why have you brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? For there is no food and no water, and our soul loathes this worthless bread.” With the Israelites as we read about in scripture, you could find yourself in a... Continue Reading →
WHERE FROM, AND WHERE TO
