For in Christ Jesus you are all children of God through faith. As many of you as were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. There is no longer Jew or Greek, there is no longer slave or free, there is no longer male or female; for all of you are one in Christ Jesus. ↗

I use headlines, interfaith and that sort of thing. ↗

If someone doesn't know their Old Testament, they don't know right doctrine, right correction, and they can't be equipped for good works. ↗
