Not only is Jesus an able and willing Revealer, he is also certified to reveal God’s truth. When you go to a doctor’s office, you look on the wall to see a proper medical-school diploma.

The Bride. JOHN 3: 29-30 ESV
John the Baptist, knew his role in his ministry and never sought to allow anything to influence him otherwise. The world outside today is influenced by temptations that, on the surface, are seemingly innocent and non-threatening.
Creation – The Christian doctrine
The Christian doctrine of God is a complex one that can be approached from various standpoints. Let’s start with CREATION
