Im blessed
Wow wow, I have learnt so much from audience narrative to The gospel. I have understood what the real gospel is and what is suppose to be preached and that Jesus is worthy of all praise and glory, he is our creator, The redeemer, sovereign ruler, breaker of chains, Priest, the ultimate model as a human being and through him we fulfil what we were created for, that is the shalom with God, with ourselves, neighbors and with the creation.
