Kameel Majdali's Road Ahead

That you do not become sluggish but imitate those who through faith and patience inherit the promises - Hebrews 6:12 In our changing, trying times, the one thing we need above all else is divine patience; it can help you plough through the obstacles and keep going unto victory. More than that, it is a key to receiving the promises of God. Abraham had it, and so did Job - what about you?

    In fighting and winning the culture war(s), where civilisation itself is at stake, we need to know where are the frontlines and trenches.
