they say. This particular study guide has been chosen as
it takes care not to advocate any particular
denominational doctrine. We expect you to read and study
the scriptures to understand what they say. If you start
with the attitude that you want to have the Lord sow his
word in your heart He will not disappoint you.HelpAboutOpens a window about &bibletime; project
