Doomsday 2012? Not according to the Bible!
by Matt Clifton
Every few years, a new doomsday prophecy arises. The latest to arrive on the media’s radar screen is the Mayan prophecy that time as we know it will end in 2012 due to the “galactic alignment” that will culminate in that year. Some websites that explain this idea are Alignment 2012 and this [...]
Who leads congregations of the Lord’s church?

We read of one body (Eph. 4:4), the body of Christ, which is the church (Col. 1:18). We do not read of [...]
