Sovereign Reprobation Harsh but True
Mike Jeshurun

The Church of the Lord 예수님 was meant to be the "pillar and ground of the truth" [I Tim. 3:15]. And just as He came to 곰 witness to the truth, even so, the ministers of God are commanded to preach the whole truth which is synonymous to sound doctrine.
