THE EXISTENCE OF GOD

                                                                                Living God In this world, there are two types of people: those created by God and those who believe they can create God. However, the truth is, humans cannot create God. Only God can create humans because He is the Creator of the world, and He lives in heaven.

God doesn't need anything from this earth—not gold, diamonds, money, food, or possessions. What God desires i...

Attempting to force a spiritual birth will prove to be as effective as Ezekiel trying to stitch dead, dry bones together to make a person (Ezekiel 37), or as likely as Nicodemus giving himself a new birth in the Spirit (John...
