Regulations

February 16, 2022
Word for Wednesday... Regulations All these regulations refer to things that perish with use; they are simply human commands and teachings.

Word for Wednesday... Solitary Witness What is the price of two sparrows—one copper coin? But not a single sparrow can fall to the ground without your Father knowing it.

Remembered
