Does your work reflect Jesus? 38:13 no Paul is going to address slaves and how they are to be obedient to their masters and not talk back.

You may want to rethink what you think you know! 44:54 no There are many men and women way smarter than I will ever be but that doesn’t make their teaching right.

Since the 1500s, man has fought and divided over teachings that are not from God, they are simply man’s ideas.
