Isn't it just like the Bible to seem like it's presenting us with yet another contradiction? In John 21, God shows how He grants the capacity to handle the increase He is bringing.

He spoke John 3:16-17 over me, but instead of saying, “For God so loved the ‘world’ - He said, “For God so … Continue reading For God So Loved _______
