Social Conventions and The Gospel
Is it true that much of the Christian Church's success was derived from social convention rather than inherent human need for Christ, a savior? Many believe so.

Someday, you know who you are, I pray the mountains will move and you will humbly receive His salvation. Then righteousness will be your way, and grace your footstool. Upon His word you will thrive, and you will give even more than you receive. For you will know Him as I know Him; the love …
