When someone tells us the truth, sometimes it's difficult to recieve. If the Truth comes from the perfect Truth Teller, will we lay aside our preconceived notions and let His Truth guide us?

Is the Gospel Truth obvious and can it be validated? Is Jesus the true Lamb of God? We will study a very powerful first hand witness to Jesus of Nazareth and the obvious and validated Truth that He is indeed the only Lamb of God, who takes away the sins of the world. Be encouraged!

One of the best things we experience as Christians is the hope that enters into our souls. When Jesus came as the Lamb, He brought that hope to the world directly. We will discuss why it's best to have our souls empty for Jesus to enter into, so we might be FULL of this Hope. We hope you would be blessed and encouraged!

When we think of the best two-for-one presents, we should look to no other than the Lord Jesus. As we'll be reminded, He is FULL of Grace and Truth, and He desires that we know and have access to His treasure cove so we can have peace, joy, security and so we can glorify God the Father. We hope you would take and use His gifts today. Blessings!
