It is by the grace of God that we have been chosen to understand and to know the mystery of the kingdom of God as there are outside the kingdom of God who seeing but may not perceive and hearing but not understand (Mark 4:11-12).

All glory to Him! https://twitter.com/EstherOngHC

His own son schemed for 40 years (15:7) to topple his own father - could you believe that? This is our Bible - it will not hide - all the successes and failures of God's people are truthfully reported. Why did King David suffer this? It started with his own sin of adultery with Bathsheba (11:3) Even though God had forgiven him when he sincerely repented by recognising that he sinned against the Lord (12:13), King David nee...
