Distressed by Various Trials

I am reading in 1 Peter 1.

But Since You Say, “We See”

And Jesus said, “For judgment I came into this world, so that those who do not see may see, and that those who see may become blind.” Those of the Pharisees who were with Him heard these things and said to Him, “We are not blind too, are we?” Jesus said to them, “If you … Continue reading But Since You Say, “We See”
