There are some religious people today who believe that Christians must keep the Sabbath. The Seventh Day Adventist is the group that comes to mind first, but there are several other groups within different denominations that advocate the same thing. So then, should we as Christians keep the Sabbath? Should we be worshipping God on […]
By F.O. White November 11, 2018 A preacher in Nashville, Tennessee was called by a man pas-sing through.
