GUEST POST from Don – The Relationship
THE RELATIONSHIP Christian salvation is a strange beast. Some think it is a “search for God.” For many religions, that is exactly the point. But for Christianity it is entirely wrong. Christianity is God’s search for us. Genesis 1 & 2 clearly proclaims that God created the world, then (day 6) he created Adam (adam is also the word for …
