To learn strong faith is to endure great trials. I have learned my faith by standing firm amid severe testings.

pondering the path of life

Our calling
They first gave themselves to the Lord;
Then to the building up of the body (the church);
Then to make known the Grace and Truth of God to the world…

Our goal
In holiness and godly sincerity, not in fleshly wisdom but in the grace of God, we have conducted ourselves in the world - our faith working through love.

The Truth creates friction with the flesh

But the spirit thrives on the Word of Truth

The Spirit of Truth has come and the flesh is at enmity with it

With the Spirit there is life

With the flesh there is death

And the flesh will persecute those of the Spirit
