No Comments
| eNotes

John 8:47 [Jesus said,] “Whoever is from God hears the words of God. The reason you do not hear them is that you are not from God.”  (NRSV) Recently, we talked in church about the understanding the difference between reading what you see on social media and hearing what the writer says. Comprehending what the […]
