We Know

“Be it known unto you … that through this Man [Jesus Christ] is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins” (Acts 13:38-39).

Sir Ambrose Fleming, a renowned British scientist, said: “We must not build on the sands of an uncertain and ever-changing science, but upon the rock of the inspired Scriptures, which do not comprise the guesses of fallible minds, but the utterances of holy men of God who spoke by the Holy Ghost.”

Friends, listen to the witness of some of these “holy men of God.”
