Holds a Bible that does not endure while proclaiming a cross that bore no curse.

(Proverbs 2:18-20; 5:5)

“Listen carefully to me,” says the Lord
concerning her pride. “Pay attention to the words of my mouth: Do not let your heart turn aside to her ways, do not stray into her paths.” Fear the Lord and follow Him, He will direct your ways to life evermore.

A Christian Church…
