Simplicity That is in Christ
“But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.” (2 Cor. 11:3) In such a complex, busy and fast-paced world we have today, it is refreshing to have a few things that are simple. One of…
