This is the case because the Creator made every person equal, and gave certain permanent rights to them all. These include the rights to live, to be free, and to pursue happiness.

Encounters with Jesus: Do You See This Woman?

Sunday, June 13th, 2010 : By Ken Rutherford

Childhood Conversion

Sunday, April 18th, 2010 : By Ken Rutherford

When are children old enough to make a credible profession of faith in Christ? When should children be baptized? Someone has led my child in a prayer to invite Jesus into his heart. Should I rejoice?
