Is your church accomplishing its main mission?
Key point: We must make sure our value system is based on God's true Truth! Be on guard against building on the shifting sands and lies of the culture and the world!

Matthew 10: 34-42, Christ brings Division. This passage concludes the training exercise Jesus is giving His disciples.
