Their Vision Sometimes I wish God would show me exactly what I should do and how I should do it. I mean, wouldn’t it be so easy to have your own personal Urim and Thummim? Like one of those ‘Magic 8 Balls’, that you would shake, and it gives you a direct answer! I read… Continue reading A Heavenly Vision

The first of these three mediums is nature, the second is providence and the third is His word. The beginning of this chapter is very similar to the opening chapter of the book, testifying… Continue reading A Knowledge of God
