We Can Be Angels Today
Angels are awesome. They stand in the throne room of God. They have the ability to slay armies. They can appear at the flash of light, fight demons, and even be a comfort to people when the Lord sends them. But people have an incorrect view of angels. They think that angels are some special…

Oh the universe is full of amazing and wonderful things and very few subjects have been the source of more fiery debates than the topic of evolution.
