A: As you become more like the Bereans (Acts 17:11), who received the Word with all readiness of mind, and searched the Scriptures daily, to determined whether or not the things Apostle Paul was preaching, were so, you would come to the conclusion, that there are a number of scriptures to support the loss of effectiveness and […]
A:The bottom line is that all we have is from God, so in that sense, they are all gifts from God.

A:Now, that’s a good question! Some friends say, they don’t feel that they can memorize their way off a one-story building, much less remember Bible verses and/or where they are located in the Word of God.
