The Mistress
Psalm 40:1-3 NASB I waited patiently for the Lord; And He inclined to me and heard my cry. He brought me up out of the pit of destruction, out of the miry clay, And He set my feet upon a rock making my footsteps firm. He put a new song in my mouth, a song … Continue reading The Mistress

The Lord Jesus led me to read 2 Peter 2 (Select vv. ESV). But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them—bringing swift destruction on themselves. Many will follow their depraved conduct … Continue reading They Heap Abuse
